I ran a security audit and got the following.

I've seen posts dating back to 2021/2022 that talk about similar or possibly the same issue. Is there any concern?

Thank you

A lot to unpack...

That seems unlikely.

> CVE-2022-40897

It's been in FreeBSD ports for some weeks now. It doesn't look very relevant to normal operation.

> Is there any concern?

Depends on the question ;)

Is there any concern to make known vulnerabilities public? No.
Is there any concern to know vulnerabilities exist? No.
Is there any concern to the security of your installation? I don't know.


Cheers,
Franco
