                Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
________________________________________________________________________

Package name:           krb5
Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2003:043
Date:                   April 1st, 2003

Affected versions:	8.2, 9.0, 9.1, Corporate Server 2.1,
			Multi Network Firewall 8.2
________________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

 Multiple vulnerabilties have been found in the Kerberos network
 authentication system.  The MIT Kerberos team have released an
 advisory detailing these vulnerabilties, 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 (CAN-2002-0036).  Mandrake Linux 9.0+ is not affected by
 this problem.
 
 Vulnerabilties 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 (CAN-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
 (CAN-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 (CAN-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 (CAN-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 (CAN-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
 (CAN-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 (CAN-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.

To upgrade automatically, use MandrakeUpdate.  The verification of md5
checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.

If you want to upgrade manually, download the updated package from one
of our FTP server mirrors and upgrade with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm".  A list of
FTP mirrors can be obtained from:

  http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/ftp.php

Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of
the downloaded package.  You can do this with the command:

  rpm --checksig <filename>

All packages are signed by MandrakeSoft for security.  You can obtain
the GPG public key of the Mandrake Linux Security Team from:

  https://www.mandrakesecure.net/RPM-GPG-KEYS

Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to
update.

You can view other update advisories for Mandrake Linux at:
