Summary
The cmdline pseudofiles in (1) procfs on FreeBSD 4.8 through 5.3, and (2) linprocfs on FreeBSD 5.x through 5.3, do not properly validate a process argument vector, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) or read portions of kernel memory. NOTE: this candidate might be SPLIT into 2 separate items in the future.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
