package: kfreebsd-8
version: 8.1+dfsg-7.1
severity: important
tags: security

an exploit has been posted for freebsd using a kernel leak and their
ftpd [0]. it's against an ancient version of freebsd (5.3), so it may
not affect newer versions.  i don't have time to verify whether any of
the claims actually affect the debian kfreebsd.  i would suggest
discussing this with upstream.

best wishes,
mike
