The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 7d631146-5769-11ef-b618-1c697a616631 advisory.

AMD reports:

           Researchers from IOActive have reported that it may be possible for                an attacker with ring 0 access to modify the configuration of System                Management Mode (SMM) even when SMM Lock is enabled.  Improper                validation in a model specific register (MSR) could allow a malicious                program with ring0 access to modify SMM configuration while SMI lock                is enabled, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
