VULHUB ™

FreeBSD is a freely available, open source operating system based off the original Berkeley Software Distribution. FreeBSD is maintained and developed by the FreeBSD project. Under some circumstances, it is possible to crash a FreeBSD system. When an ICMP echo reply is sent to a vulnerable system, the number referencing the amount of hosts with current connections via that route is never decremented after termination of the ICMP traffic. The memory allocated for the routing table entry would never be freed. This could result in the exhaustion of memory.
