DSA-543-1 krb5 Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The MIT Kerberos Development Team has discovered a number of vulnerabilities in the MIT Kerberos Version 5 software. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following vulnerabilities: A double-free error may permit unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on KDC or clients. Several double-free errors may permit authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code on Kerberos application servers. A remotely exploitable denial of service vulnerability has been found in the KDC and libraries. Several double-free errors may permit remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on the server. This does not affect the version in woody. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 1.2.4-5woody6.
