Fedora Core 3 2005-552: krb5 |
||
Check for the version of the krb5 package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory FEDORA-2005-552 (krb5). Kerberos V5 is a trusted-third-party network authentication system, which can improve your network's security by eliminating the insecure practice of cleartext passwords. Update Information: A double-free flaw was found in the krb5_recvauth() routine which may be triggered by a remote unauthenticated attacker. Fedora Core 3 contains checks within glibc that detect double-free flaws. Therefore, on Fedora Core 3, successful exploitation of this issue can only lead to a denial of service (KDC crash). The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name CVE-2005-1689 to this issue. Daniel Wachdorf discovered a single byte heap overflow in the krb5_unparse_name() function, part of krb5-libs. Successful exploitation of this flaw would lead to a denial of service (crash). To trigger this flaw remotely, a possible hacker would need to have control of a kerberos realm that shares a cross-realm key with the target, making exploitation of this flaw unlikely. (CVE-2005-1175). Daniel Wachdorf also discovered that in error conditions that may occur in response to correctly-formatted client requests, the Kerberos 5 KDC may attempt to free uninitialized memory. This could permit a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (KDC crash) (CVE-2005-1174). Gaƫl Delalleau discovered an information disclosure issue in the way some telnet clients handle messages from a server. A possible hacker could construct a malicious telnet server that collects information from the environment of any victim who connects to it using the Kerberos-aware telnet client (CVE-2005-0488). The rcp protocol permits a server to instruct a client to write to arbitrary files outside of the current directory. This could potentially cause a security issue if a user uses the Kerberos-aware rcp to copy files from a malicious server (CVE-2004-0175).
