Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in the Kerberos network authentication system. The MIT Kerberos team have released an advisory detailing these vulnerabilities, a description of which follows.
An integer signedness error in the ASN.1 decoder before version 1.2.5 allows remote attackers to cause a crash of the server via a large unsigned data element length, which is later used as a negative value (CVE-2002-0036). Mandrake Linux 9.0+ is not affected by this problem.
Vulnerabilities have been found in the RPC library used by the kadmin service. A faulty length check in the RPC library exposes kadmind to an integer overflow which can be used to crash kadmind (CVE-2003-0028).
The KDC (Key Distribution Center) before version 1.2.5 allows remote, authenticated attackers to cause a crash on KDCs within the same realm using a certain protocol that causes a null dereference (CVE-2003-0058). Mandrake Linux 9.0+ is not affected by this problem.
Users from one realm can impersonate users in other realms that have the same inter-realm keys due to a vulnerability in Kerberos 1.2.3 and earlier (CVE-2003-0059). Mandrake Linux 9.0+ is not affected by this problem.
The KDC allows remote, authenticated users to cause a crash on KDCs within the same realm using a certain protocol request that causes an out-of-bounds read of an array (CVE-2003-0072).
The KDC allows remote, authenticated users to cause a crash on KDCs within the same realm using a certain protocol request that causes the KDC to corrupt its heap (CVE-2003-0082).
Vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Kerberos IV authentication protocol which allow an attacker with knowledge of a cross-realm key, which is shared in another realm, to impersonate a principle in that realm to any service in that realm. This vulnerability can only be closed by disabling cross-realm authentication in Kerberos IV (CVE-2003-0138).
Vulnerabilities have been discovered in the support for triple-DES keys in the Kerberos IV authentication protocol which is included in MIT Kerberos (CVE-2003-0139).
MandrakeSoft encourages all users to upgrade to these updated packages immediately which contain patches to correct all of the previously noted vulnerabilities. These packages also disable Kerberos IV cross-realm authentication by default.
Update :
The packages for Mandrake Linux 9.1 and 9.1/PPC were not GPG-signed.
This has been fixed and as a result the md5sums have changed. Thanks to Mark Lyda for pointing this out.
