Kerberos is a networked authentication system that uses a trusted third
party (a KDC) to authenticate clients and servers to each other.
A heap based buffer overflow bug was found in the administration library of
Kerberos 1.3.5 and earlier. This bug could allow an authenticated remote
attacker to execute arbitrary commands on a realm’s master Kerberos KDC.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CAN-2004-1189 to this issue.
All users of krb5 should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
backported security patches to resolve these issues.
