Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2017.0308
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2017-0308)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'heimdal' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2017-0308 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'heimdal' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2017-0308 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Transit path validation inadvertently caused the previous hop realm to
not be added to the transit path of issued tickets. This may, in some
cases, enable bypass of capath policy in Heimdal versions 1.5 through
7.2 (CVE-2017-6594).

Note, this may break sites that rely on the bug. With the bug some
incomplete [capaths] worked, that should not have. These may now break
authentication in some cross-realm configurations.

Affected Software/OS:
'heimdal' package(s) on Mageia 5.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
