As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we periodically notify users about ports that are marked as "forbidden" in their Makefiles. Often, these ports are so marked due to security concerns, such as known exploits. An overview of each port, including errors seen on the build farm, is included below. portname: databases/gnats forbidden because: Security issues build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=gnats portname: french/pluxml forbidden because: no active development and known security vulnerabilities, see http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/24607/info for details build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=french&portname=pluxml portname: ftp/greed forbidden because: Insecure GRX file processing build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=ftp&portname=greed portname: misc/compat3x forbidden because: FreeBSD-SA-03:05.xdr, FreeBSD-SA-03:08.realpath - not fixed / no lib available build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=misc&portname=compat3x portname: net/gnu-finger forbidden because: http://www.vuxml.org/freebsd/610bc692-a2ad-11dc-900c-000bcdc1757a.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=net&portname=gnu-finger portname: www/tdiary-devel forbidden because: contains a vulnerability: http://www.tdiary.org/20071215.html written in Japanese build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=www&portname=tdiary-devel portname: www/zope forbidden because: contains cross-site scripting vulnerability http://VuXML.FreeBSD.org/34414a1e-e377-11db-b8ab-000c76189c4c.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=www&portname=zope
