- CVEs with nessus.description==The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200507-11 (MIT Kerberos 5: Multiple vulnerabilities)
Daniel Wachdorf discovered that MIT Kerberos 5 could corrupt the heap by freeing unallocated memory when receiving a special TCP request (CAN-2005-1174). He also discovered that the same request could lead to a single-byte heap overflow (CAN-2005-1175). Magnus Hagander discovered that krb5_recvauth() function of MIT Kerberos 5 might try to double-free memory (CAN-2005-1689).
Impact :
Although exploitation is considered difficult, a remote attacker could exploit the single-byte heap overflow and the double-free vulnerability to execute arbitrary code, which could lead to the compromise of the whole Kerberos realm. A remote attacker could also use the heap corruption to cause a Denial of Service.
Workaround :
There are no known workarounds at this time.
