As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we periodically notify users about ports that are marked as "forbidden" in their Makefiles. Often, these ports are so marked due to security concerns, such as known exploits.
An overview of each port, including errors seen on the build farm, is included below. portname: graphics/linux-tiff forbidden because: Vulnerable since 2004-10-13, http://portaudit.freebsd.org/8816bf3a-7929-11df-bcce-0018f3e2eb82.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=graphics&portname=linux-tiff portname: security/sudosh3 forbidden because: Secunia Advisory SA38292, ISS X-Force sudosh-replay-bo (55903), replay() function buffer overflow. build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=security&portname=sudosh3 portname: x11-toolkits/linux-pango forbidden because: Vulnerable since 2009-05-13, http://portaudit.freebsd.org/4b172278-3f46-11de-becb-001cc0377035.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=x11-toolkits&portname=linux-pango _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
