Description

Jon Siwek of Corelight reports:

This release fixes the following security issue:

A memory leak in multipart MIME code has potential

for remote exploitation and cause for Denial of Service

via resource exhaustion.

Solution(s)

  • freebsd-upgrade-package-zeek

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
