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: math/mupad forbidden because: Relies on xpm, vulnerable since 2004-09-15, http://portaudit.freebsd.org/ef253f8b-0727-11d9-b45d-000c41e2cdad.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=math&portname=mupad portname: net-p2p/torrentflux forbidden because: Vulnerable since 2006-10-07, http://portaudit.freebsd.org/72f21372-55e4-11db-a5ae-00508d6a62df.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=net-p2p&portname=torrentflux portname: net/tptest forbidden because: Vulnerable since 2009-12-17, http://portaudit.freebsd.org/5486669e-ea9f-11de-bd9c-00215c6a37bb.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=net&portname=tptest portname: security/cfs forbidden because: Buffer overflows allow remote attackers to cause DoS / execute arbitrary code build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=security&portname=cfs portname: security/pgp6 forbidden because: Vulnerable since 2005-07-31, http://portaudit.freebsd.org/8375a73f-01bf-11da-bc08-0001020eed82.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=security&portname=pgp6 portname: sysutils/dtc forbidden because: Many security issues, see http://bugs.freebsd.org/159736 build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=sysutils&portname=dtc portname: www/plone forbidden because: Vulnerable since 2011-02-10, http://portaudit.freebsd.org/7c492ea2-3566-11e0-8e81-0022190034c0.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=www&portname=plone portname: www/pyblosxom forbidden because: Vulnerable since 2009-02-11 http://portaudit.freebsd.org/b07f3254-f83a-11dd-85a4-ea653f0746ab.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=www&portname=pyblosxom portname: www/rt36 forbidden because: Vulnerable since 2009-12-09, http://portaudit.freebsd.org/714c1406-e4cf-11de-883a-003048590f9e.html build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=www&portname=rt36 portname: www/seamonkey2 forbidden because: several security vulnerabilities build errors: none. overview: http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=www&portname=seamonkey2
