                   Red Hat, Inc. Security Advisory

Synopsis:          Updated Kerberos 5 packages are now available for Red Hat Linux.
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2000:025-13
Issue date:        2000-05-16
Updated on:        2000-06-16
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          N/A
Cross references:  N/A
---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

Security vulnerabilities have been found in the Kerberos 5
implementation shipped with Red Hat Linux 6.2.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386 alpha sparc

3. Problem description:

A number of possible buffer overruns were found in libraries included
in the affected packages.  A denial-of-service vulnerability was also
found in the ksu program.

* A remote user may gain unauthorized root access to a machine running
  services authenticated with Kerberos 4.

* A remote user may gain unauthorized root access to a machine running
  krshd, regardless of whether the program is configured to accept
  Kerberos 4 authentication.

* A local user may gain unauthorized root access by exploiting v4rcp
  or ksu.

* A remote user can cause a KDC to become unresponsive or crash by sending
  it an improperly formatted request.

* A remote user may execute certain FTP commands without authorization
  on systems using the FTP server included in the krb5-workstation
  package.

* An attacker with access to a local account may gain unauthorized
  root access on systems using the FTP server included in the
  krb5-workstation package.

The prior errata announcement for these package contained incorrect
md5sum values.  The correct md5sums are listed below.

4. Solution:

For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filename]

where filename is the name of the RPM.

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):

10653 - 'stat' unresolved on "libkrb5.so.2.2" load
11496 - security-updated krb5 packages fail dependencies

These packages are GPG signed by Red Hat, Inc. for security.  Our key
is available at:
    http://www.redhat.com/corp/contact.html

You can verify each package with the following command:
    rpm --checksig  <filename>

If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command:
    rpm --checksig --nogpg <filename>
