Integer overflow in the calloc function in libc/stdlib/malloc.c in jemalloc in libc for FreeBSD 6.4 and NetBSD makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to perform memory-related attacks such as buffer overflows via a large size value, which triggers a memory allocation of one byte.
The libarchive library in FreeBSD 6-STABLE after 2006-09-05 and before 2006-11-08 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a malformed archive that causes libarchive to skip a region past the actual end of the archive, which triggers an infinite loop that attempts to read more data.
A logic error in the IP fragment cache functionality in pf in FreeBSD 5.3, 5.4, and 6.0, and OpenBSD, when a 'scrub fragment crop' or 'scrub fragment drop-ovl' rule is being used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted packets that cause a packet fragment to be inserted twice.
OpenSSH on FreeBSD 5.3 and 5.4, when used with OpenPAM, does not properly handle when a forked child process terminates during PAM authentication, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (client connection refusal) by connecting multiple times to the SSH server, waiting for the password prompt, then disconnecting.
The ipfw firewall in FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (firewall crash) via ICMP IP fragments that match a reset, reject or unreach action, which leads to an access of an uninitialized pointer.
