Detail

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in krb5:

The kdb_ldap plugin in the Key Distribution Center (KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.9 through 1.9.1, when the LDAP back end is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a kinit operation with incorrect string case for the realm, related to the is_principal_in_realm, krb5_set_error_message, krb5_ldap_get_principal, and process_as_req functions (CVE-2011-1527).

The krb5_ldap_lockout_audit function in the Key Distribution Center (KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.8 through 1.8.4 and 1.9 through 1.9.1, when the LDAP back end is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) via unspecified vectors, related to the locked_check_p function (CVE-2011-1528).

The lookup_lockout_policy function in the Key Distribution Center (KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.8 through 1.8.4 and 1.9 through 1.9.1, when the db2 (aka Berkeley DB) or LDAP back end is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via vectors that trigger certain process_as_req errors (CVE-2011-1529).

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

Title: DSA-2379-1 krb5 -- several
Description: It was discovered that the Key Distribution Center in Kerberos 5 crashes when processing certain crafted requests: CVE-2011-1528 When the LDAP backend is used, remote users can trigger a KDC daemon crash and denial of service. CVE-2011-1529 When the LDAP or Berkeley DB backend is used, remote users can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the KDC daemon and a denial of service. The oldstable distribution is not affected by these problems.
