The version of the FreeBSD kernel running on the remote host is prior to 10.3-RELEASE-p24, 10.4 prior to 10.4-RELEASE-p3, 11.0 prior to 11.0-RELEASE-p15, or 11.1 prior to 11.1-RELEASE-p4. It is, therefore, affected by a potential information disclosure vulnerabilities in ptrace and kldstat. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue by creating new ptrace_lwpinfo or kld_file_stat structs, which may potentially contain unsanitized information from the kernel.
