Category:Turbolinux Local Security Tests
Title:Turbolinux TLSA-2003-29 (krb5)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to krb5
announced via advisory TLSA-2003-29.

- A faulty length check in the RPC library exposes kadmind to
an integer overflow.
- A vulnerability may allow the use of cut-and-paste attacks to
fabricate krb4 tickets for unauthorized client principals
if triple-DES keys are used to key krb4 services.
- Buffer overrun and underrun problems exist in Kerberos principal name
handling in unusual cases, such as names with zero components, names
with one empty component, or host-based service principal names with
no host name component.

These vulnerabilities may allow remote attackers to gain the realm
and to cause a denial of krb5 service.

Solution: Please use the turbopkg (zabom) tool to apply the update.
