What is the procedure for patching/updating system version of OpenSSH on an FBSD 5.2.1 box?
If you can't afford to upgrade the base OS and you do not want to install OpenSSH from the ports, then you'll need to specify what vulnerability you are talking about.
I checked the FreeBSD security advisories which *could* apply to your problem and it seems that FreeBSD-SA-04:05.openssl is the one you might be talking about. A patch is included with the advisory along with instructions on how to apply the patch and fix the issue.

I used the excellent Rootkit Hunter security assessment tool:
http://www.rootkit.nl/projects/rootkit_hunter.html
and it found that I'm running OpenSSH 3.6.1p1, which has at least one vulnerability.
I only know how to install/upgrade from ports. OpenSSH
is part of the ports collection, but the build I'm
running was included with the OS.
What's the right way to proceed here?
thanks
