Perhaps this is in the wrong section, I apologize if it is. I just wanted to clear up something that I have been trying to research for quite some time now but havent been able to find any definitive information on. I would like to know if an application (lets take firefox for example) has a known exploit in the code, if that code would also be vulnerable in BSD. I am asking this because I was under the impression that 3rd party apps need to be ported to BSD for compatibility and including the proper C libs. Of course I am referring to a general example, I know there isnt going to be an answer that would be the case ALL the time...but perhaps a certain type of exploit would pertain to BSD whereas other types wouldnt. Please advise.
