I´m not sure, what is meant by "previous releases" in above line, does 4 Stable
fall under this term? My "global" file was installed by default, not out of the
ports. This won´t be exploitable then (I´m tracking 4 Stable)?

bash-2.04$ file /usr/bin/global
/usr/bin/global: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD),
dynamically linked, stripped
bash-2.04$ uname -a

Ciao
