The version of the FreeBSD kernel running on the remote host is 11.x prior to 11.2-RELEASE-p11 or 12.x prior to 12.0-RELEASE-p7. It is, therefore, affected by a privilege escalation vulnerability in the cd(4) driver. A local attacker with read access to a cd(4) device can exploit this to gain root privileges on the system.
