Serious vulnerability in all versions of FreeBSD

Reading this news last night from the phone, I was sure that by the morning, it would definitely be published on Habré. But no ...

FreeBSD 6.x, 7.x, 8.x, 9.x discovered a serious vulnerability exploiting the implementation features of local UNIX sockets.

Vulnerability allows a local system user to gain root privileges, as well as exit jail.

The problem is very relevant for hosters running on FreeBSD and giving users ssh access.

To solve the problem, you need to install the latest updates or install a patch and then rebuild the kernel.
