security flaw

Version 4 of the Kerberos protocol (krb4), as used in Heimdal and other packages, allows an attacker to impersonate any principal in a realm via a chosen-plaintext attack.

security flaw

The Key Distribution Center (KDC) in Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.2.7 and earlier allows remote, authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) on KDCs within the same realm using a certain protocol request that causes the KDC to corrupt its heap (aka "buffer underrun").

security flaw

Kerberos 4 KDC program improperly frees memory twice (aka "double-free"), which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service.

security flaw

Buffer overflow in krshd in Kerberos 5 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges.

security flaw

The Key Distribution Center (KDC) in Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.2.7 and earlier allows remote, authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) on KDCs within the same realm using a certain protocol request that causes an out-of-bounds read of an array (aka "array overrun").

Format string vulnerabilities in the logging routines for MIT Kerberos V5 Key Distribution Center (KDC) before 1.2.5 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in Kerberos principal names.

security flaw

Kerberos 4 KDC program does not properly check for null termination of AUTH_MSG_KDC_REQUEST requests, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed request.

security flaw

Unknown vulnerability in the chk_trans.c of the libkrb5 library for MIT Kerberos V5 before 1.2.5 allows users from one realm to impersonate users in other realms that have the same inter-realm keys.

security flaw

MIT Kerberos V5 Key Distribution Center (KDC) before 1.2.5 allows remote authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) on KDCs within the same realm via a certain protocol request that causes a null dereference.

security flaw

Buffer overflow in Kerberos 4 KDC program allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via the e_msg variable in the kerb_err_reply function.

security flaw

Buffer overflow in krb425_conv_principal function in Kerberos 5 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges.

Buffer overflow in Kerberos IV compatibility libraries as used in Kerberos V allows local users to gain root privileges via a long line in a kerberos configuration file, which can be specified via the KRB_CONF environmental variable.

security flaw

Kerberos FTP client allows remote FTP sites to execute arbitrary code via a pipe (|) character in a filename that is retrieved by the client.

security flaw

Integer overflow in the xdrmem_getbytes() function, and possibly other functions, of XDR (external data representation) libraries derived from SunRPC, including libnsl, libc, glibc, and dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain integer values in length fields, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-0391.

security flaw

Buffer overflow in Kerberos 4 KDC program allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via the localrealm variable in the process_v4 function.

The (1) ftpd and (2) ksu programs in (a) MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) up to 1.5, and 1.4.x before 1.4.4, and (b) Heimdal 0.7.2 and earlier, do not check return codes for setuid calls, which might allow local users to gain privileges by causing setuid to fail to drop privileges. NOTE: as of 20060808, it is not known whether an exploitable attack scenario exists for these issues.

security flaw

The (1) krshd and (2) v4rcp applications in (a) MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) up to 1.5, and 1.4.x before 1.4.4, when running on Linux and AIX, and (b) Heimdal 0.7.2 and earlier, do not check return codes for setuid calls, which allows local users to gain privileges by causing setuid to fail to drop privileges using attacks such as resource exhaustion.

security flaw

Buffer overflow in Kerberos 4 KDC program allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via the lastrealm variable in the set_tgtkey function.

security flaw

Double free vulnerability in the krb5_recvauth function in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain error conditions.

security flaw

Heap-based buffer overflow in the Key Distribution Center (KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a certain valid TCP or UDP request.
