Buffer overflow in the sppp driver in FreeBSD 4.11 through 6.1, NetBSD 2.0 through 4.0 beta before 20060823, and OpenBSD 3.8 and 3.9 before 20060902 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic), obtain sensitive information, and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted Link Control Protocol (LCP) packets with an option length that exceeds the overall length, which triggers the overflow in (1) pppoe and (2) ippp. NOTE: this issue was originally incorrectly reported for the ppp driver.

The TCP MSS (maximum segment size) functionality in netinet allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) via (1) a low MTU, which causes a large number of small packets to be produced, or (2) via a large number of packets with a small TCP payload, which cause a large number of calls to the resource-intensive sowakeup function.

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

The ISO-2022 encoding module used a stack buffer sized to MBLENMAX (6 bytes) for intermediate character output. Some ISO-2022 variants can require up to 10 bytes per character, in which case conversions can trigger a stack buffer overflow of up to four bytes.

An application that uses iconv(3) to convert untrusted input to or from one of the affected encodings may be vulnerable to buffer overflows if it uses one of the affected encoding modules.

In FreeBSD before 11.1-STABLE, 11.1-RELEASE-p7, 10.4-STABLE, 10.4-RELEASE-p7, and 10.3-RELEASE-p28, the kernel does not properly validate IPsec packets coming from a trusted host. Additionally, a use-after-free vulnerability exists in the IPsec AH handling code. This issue could cause a system crash or other unpredictable results.

pamkrb5 authenticates a user by essentially running kinit with the password, getting a ticket-granting ticket (tgt) from the Kerberos KDC (Key Distribution Center) over the network, as a way to verify the password. However, if a keytab is not provisioned on the system, pamkrb5 has no way to validate the response from the KDC, and essentially trusts the tgt provided over the network as being valid. In a non-default FreeBSD installation that leverages pamkrb5 for authentication and does not have a keytab provisioned, an attacker that is able to control both the password and the KDC responses can return a valid tgt, allowing authentication to occur for any user on the system.

By default, jailed processes cannot mount filesystems, including nullfs(4). However, the allow.mount.nullfs option enables mounting nullfs filesystems, subject to privilege checks.

If a privileged user within a jail is able to nullfs-mount directories, a limitation of the kernel's path lookup logic allows that user to escape the jail's chroot, yielding access to the full filesystem of the host or parent jail.

In a jail configured to allow nullfs(4) mounts from within the jail, the jailed root user can escape the jail's filesystem root.
