I'm a home user of OPNsense, not a networking expert. I'd much appreciate it if you'd keep that in mind if replying to something I posted. Many thanks!

Hi guys,
It's true. The database is provided via FreeBSD for your pleasure. Check the CVEs and mitigate if necessary.
You can install the port if you want to mitigate via the system and restart the appropriate services:
# opnsense-code tools ports
# cd /usr/ports/textproc/libxml2
# make
# make deinstall install
17.7.11 will fix this one for sure, but in general the vulnerabilities do not necessarily adhere to our release schedule.
Cheers,
Franco
