Package : kfreebsd-9
CVE ID : CVE-2014-3711 CVE-2014-3952 CVE-2014-3953 CVE-2014-8476
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the FreeBSD kernel that
may lead to a denial of service or information disclosure.
CVE-2014-3711
Denial of service through memory leak in sandboxed namei lookups.
CVE-2014-3952
Kernel memory disclosure in sockbuf control messages.
CVE-2014-3953
Kernel memory disclosure in SCTP. This update disables SCTP, since the
userspace tools shipped in Wheezy didn't support SCTP anyway.
CVE-2014-8476
Kernel stack disclosure in setlogin() and getlogin().
For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
version 9.0-10+deb70.8.
We recommend that you upgrade your kfreebsd-9 packages.
