Package : krb5
CVE ID : CVE-2015-8629 CVE-2015-8630 CVE-2015-8631
Debian Bug : 813126 813127 813296
Several vulnerabilities were discovered in krb5, the MIT implementation
of Kerberos. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies
the following problems:
CVE-2015-8629
It was discovered that an authenticated attacker can cause kadmind
to read beyond the end of allocated memory by sending a string
without a terminating zero byte. Information leakage may be possible
for an attacker with permission to modify the database.
CVE-2015-8630
It was discovered that an authenticated attacker with permission to
modify a principal entry can cause kadmind to dereference a null
pointer by supplying a null policy value but including KADM5_POLICY
in the mask.
CVE-2015-8631
It was discovered that an authenticated attacker can cause kadmind
to leak memory by supplying a null principal name in a request which
uses one. Repeating these requests will eventually cause kadmind to
exhaust all available memory.
For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed
in version 1.10.1+dfsg-5+deb7u7. The oldstable distribution (wheezy) is
not affected by CVE-2015-8630.
For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.12.1+dfsg-19+deb8u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your krb5 packages.
