RHSA-2005-567: krb |

Check for the version of the krb packages Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Updated krb5 packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. Kerberos is a networked authentication system that uses a trusted third party (a KDC) to authenticate clients and servers to each other. A double-free flaw was found in the krb5_recvauth() routine which may be triggered by a remote unauthenticated attacker. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 contains checks within glibc that detect double-free flaws. Therefore, on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 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. Sucessful exploitation of this flaw would lead to a denial of service (crash). To trigger this flaw 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). All users of krb5 should update to these erratum packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. Red Hat would like to thank the MIT Kerberos Development Team for their responsible disclosure of these issues.
