Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.1.1.2010.1969
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-1969-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'krb5' package(s) announced via the DSA-1969-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'krb5' package(s) announced via the DSA-1969-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that krb5, a system for authenticating users and services on a network, is prone to integer underflow in the AES and RC4 decryption operations of the crypto library. A remote attacker can cause crashes, heap corruption, or, under extraordinarily unlikely conditions, arbitrary code execution.

For the old stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.4-7etch8.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.dfsg.4~
beta1-5lenny2.

For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem will be fixed soon.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.8+dfsg~
alpha1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your krb5 package.

Affected Software/OS:
'krb5' package(s) on Debian 4, Debian 5.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
