Fedora alert FEDORA-2005-270 (krb5)
--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-270 2005-03-29 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : krb5 Version : 1.3.6 Release : 5 Summary : The Kerberos network authentication system. Description : Kerberos V5 is a trusted-third-party network authentication system, which can improve your network's security by eliminating the insecure practice of cleartext passwords. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Updated krb5 packages which fix two buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the included Kerberos-aware telnet client are now available. Kerberos is a networked authentication system which uses a trusted third party (a KDC) to authenticate clients and servers to each other. The krb5-workstation package includes a Kerberos-aware telnet client. Two buffer overflow flaws were discovered in the way the telnet client handles messages from a server. An attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code on a victim's machine if the victim can be tricked into connecting to a malicious telnet server. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CAN-2005-0468 and CAN-2005-0469 to these issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Mon Mar 28 2005 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com> 1.3.6-5 - rebuild * Wed Mar 23 2005 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com> 1.3.6-4 - drop krshd patch * Thu Mar 17 2005 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com> - add draft fix from Tom Yu for slc_add_reply() buffer overflow (CAN-2005-0469) - add draft fix from Tom Yu for env_opt_add() buffer overflow (CAN-2005-0468) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/u... 15bad9c44ba4da14de7d5527a02c1a90 SRPMS/krb5-1.3.6-5.src.rpm 41314d054ab13a935cd57466a99bb03e x86_64/krb5-devel-1.3.6-5.x86_64.rpm c99ffb83d090d156e59a0348e8162b6e x86_64/krb5-libs-1.3.6-5.x86_64.rpm 9ed53c214ae3b20aa8cb3a3f339b46ad x86_64/krb5-server-1.3.6-5.x86_64.rpm 1f03b24107cb22cfca368d59fb9c40ee x86_64/krb5-workstation-1.3.6-5.x86_64.rpm 0c354d4e12fcfe83c2cd6fbfb96abc16 x86_64/debug/krb5-debuginfo-1.3.6-5.x86_64.rpm f07344531de5e52ff9b5a0d20bdc91be x86_64/krb5-libs-1.3.6-5.i386.rpm 0af73edbe1464ecceaf3a30789c5d400 i386/krb5-devel-1.3.6-5.i386.rpm f07344531de5e52ff9b5a0d20bdc91be i386/krb5-libs-1.3.6-5.i386.rpm d737538d9eb42347efc297930f17241c i386/krb5-server-1.3.6-5.i386.rpm 92a3d0a3000bd0a78abcf11da80009ba i386/krb5-workstation-1.3.6-5.i386.rpm d8b1635e05c1b0bb6d76cb9f7a810d78 i386/debug/krb5-debuginfo-1.3.6-5.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-announce-list mailing list fedora-announce-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list (Log in to post comments)
