Low
| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
FreeBSD versions prior to 4.6.2-RELEASE
asmon versions prior to the fixed version
ascpu versions prior to the fixed version
bubblemon versions prior to the fixed version
wmmon versions prior to the fixed version

Description:
The issue affects FreeBSD port programs that utilize libkvm, allowing local users to read kernel memory due to open file descriptors for /dev/mem and /dev/kmem.
Recommendations:
For FreeBSD versions prior to 4.6.2-RELEASE, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue.
For asmon, ascpu, bubblemon, wmmon, and wmnet2, update to versions that include the fix for this issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to /dev/mem and /dev/kmem to minimize the risk of exploitation.
