+ <title>MIT krb5: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ MIT krb5 contains several double-free vulnerabilities, potentially allowing
+ the execution of arbitrary code, as well as a denial of service
+ vulnerability.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ MIT krb5 is the free implementation of the Kerberos network authentication
+ protocol by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The implementation of the Key Distribution Center (KDC) and the MIT krb5
+ library contain double-free vulnerabilities, making client programs as well
+ as application servers vulnerable.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The ASN.1 decoder library is vulnerable to a denial of service attack,
+ including the KDC.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ The double-free vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to execute
+ arbitrary code on a KDC host and hosts running krb524d or vulnerable
+ services. In the case of a KDC host, this can lead to a compromise of the
+ entire Kerberos realm. Furthermore, an attacker impersonating a legitimate
+ KDC or application server can potentially execute arbitrary code on
+ authenticating clients.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ An attacker can cause a denial of service for a KDC or application server
+ and clients, the latter if impersonating a legitimate KDC or application
+ server.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All mit-krb5 users should upgrade to the latest stable version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge sync
+
+ # emerge -pv "&gt;=app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.3.4"
+ # emerge "&gt;=app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.3.4"</code>
+ </resolution>
