Description: Evgeny Legerov has reported a vulnerability in FreeBSD, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the handling of NFS mount requests. This can be exploited to cause a kernel panic via a request with a zero-length payload sent to the "nfsd" daemon on port 2049/tcp.
Solution: Update FreeBSD or apply patch.
