I've just inherited several FreeBSD boxes.  The versions range from
3.2_RELEASE to 4.1_RELEASE.

On the BSD boxes I already maintain I cvsup and make world on a monthly
basis - or as soon as I see a CERT advisory that I know relates to
something that can bite.  But the inherited boxes need a lot of work,
and I cannot guarantee to "The Powers That Be" that a make world wont
break the box.

What I really need to know is what vulnerabilities exist on each box -
so that I can present the boss with a risk assessment, and make him
decide if the box stays as is, or gets a make world.

So any advice anyone can give me, on how to find out what's vunerable
with any particular FreeBSD version, would be greatly appreciated.
