And it's already been fixed, see:
http://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-13:06.mmap.asc
It's quite laughable to use 9.1-RELEASE without any of the security
patches that have been issued after its release to showcase the
vulnerability, it just proves that the OP is a troll, a troll who
knows how to use the information to create a succesfull attack but
still a troll.
