If that is an otherwise unpatched 4.7-RELEASE system, then there are
more security patches to apply than just the latest fun'n'games with
openssh.
The simplest way to get a fully patched source tree is to use cvsup(1)
with a sup-file like this (should be substantially the same as
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile):
*default host=cvsup7.us.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_7
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all
Then either do a complete build,install world+kernel or just rebuild
the selected parts of the source tree as intructed in the security
advisories.
Cheers,
Matthew
