--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2004-277 2004-08-31 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 2 Name : krb5 Version : 1.3.4 Release : 6 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: Kerberos is a networked authentication system which uses a trusted third party (a KDC) to authenticate clients and servers to each other. Several double-free bugs were found in the Kerberos 5 KDC and libraries. A remote attacker could potentially exploit these flaws to execute arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CAN-2004-0642 and CAN-2004-0643 to these issues. A double-free bug was also found in the krb524 server (CAN-2004-0772), however this issue does not affect Fedora Core. An infinite loop bug was found in the Kerberos 5 ASN.1 decoder library. A remote attacker may be able to trigger this flaw and cause a denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0644 to this issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue Aug 24 2004 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.3.4-6 - rebuild * Tue Aug 24 2004 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.3.4-5 - incorporate revised fixes from Tom Yu for CAN-2004-0642, CAN-2004-0644, CAN-2004-0772 * Mon Aug 23 2004 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.3.4-4 - rebuild * Mon Aug 23 2004 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.3.4-3 - incorporate fixes from Tom Yu for CAN-2004-0642, CAN-2004-0772 (MITKRB5-SA-2004-002, #130732) - incorporate fixes from Tom Yu for CAN-2004-0644 (MITKRB5-SA-2004-003, #130732) * Tue Jul 27 2004 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.3.4-2 - fix indexing error in server sorting patch (#127336) * Tue Jun 15 2004 Elliot Lee <sopwith@xxxxxxxxxx> - rebuilt * Mon Jun 14 2004 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.3.4-0.1 - update to 1.3.4 final * Mon Jun 07 2004 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.3.4-0 - update to 1.3.4 beta1 - remove MITKRB5-SA-2004-001, included in 1.3.4 * Mon Jun 07 2004 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.3.3-8 - rebuild --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/ 2b26718a3e533f32a1e98b401a2e21d4 SRPMS/krb5-1.3.4-6.src.rpm beebe2125e840d9cb4546465b9833d66 x86_64/krb5-devel-1.3.4-6.x86_64.rpm e00056df9058bed4b00684d2a64ffbe6 x86_64/krb5-libs-1.3.4-6.x86_64.rpm abe8cf2e80236fb5a6adfa62c6e13240 x86_64/krb5-server-1.3.4-6.x86_64.rpm 11fdd50862bc0379fbfb3d804e59143b x86_64/krb5-workstation-1.3.4-6.x86_64.rpm a6abcfdeb10910b7b814391c720d2ae7 x86_64/debug/krb5-debuginfo-1.3.4-6.x86_64.rpm 1d720b00203ce00d4c75e3926ee618e4 x86_64/krb5-libs-1.3.4-6.i386.rpm 16d556d502f9d34729bcb166ec209ea8 i386/krb5-devel-1.3.4-6.i386.rpm 1d720b00203ce00d4c75e3926ee618e4 i386/krb5-libs-1.3.4-6.i386.rpm 4534128db2230d8e8f0b76a591e7f7a6 i386/krb5-server-1.3.4-6.i386.rpm c8f55dbadff7333fdb49b8f39173135b i386/krb5-workstation-1.3.4-6.i386.rpm 0092eed09687bf677aa0ed0c3980ec98 i386/debug/krb5-debuginfo-1.3.4-6.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
