Title:	Amazon Linux: Security Advisory (ALAS-2014-338)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'cyrus-sasl' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2014-338 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'cyrus-sasl' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2014-338 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Cyrus SASL 2.1.23, 2.1.26, and earlier does not properly handle when a NULL value is returned upon an error by the crypt function as implemented in glibc 2.17 and later, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (thread crash and consumption) via (1) an invalid salt or, when FIPS-140 is enabled, a (2) DES or (3) MD5 encrypted password, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference. Affected Software/OS: 'cyrus-sasl' package(s) on Amazon Linux. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
