The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 199cdb4d-690d-11ee-9ed0-001fc69cd6dc advisory.
A vulnerability was found in libXpm due to a boundary condition within the XpmCreateXpmImageFromBuffer() function. This flaw allows a local to trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read the contents of memory on the system. (CVE-2023-43788)
A vulnerability was found in libXpm where a vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition, a local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system. (CVE-2023-43789)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
