10 When using freebsd-update fetch I get: Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found. Fetching metadata signature for 9.2-RELEASE from update4.freebsd.org... done. Fetching metadata index... done. Inspecting system... done. Preparing to download files... done. The following files will be updated as part of updating to 9.2-RELEASE-p8: /boot/kernel/linker.hints Next I'll install # freebsd-update install Installing updates... done. and reboot # shutdown -r now After reboot, the kernel is 9.2-RELEASE-p7 (not p8), since the vulnerability fixed didn't include a kernel update. So next time I'm calling "freebsd-update fetch" it's all 'goto 10'.
Fix Summary and Component.
9.2 is EoL
