Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.72078
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2011:184 (krb5)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to krb5
announced via advisory MDVSA-2011:184.

A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in krb5:

The process_tgs_req function in do_tgs_req.c in the Key Distribution
Center (KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.9 through 1.9.2 allows
remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
dereference and daemon crash) via a crafted TGS request that triggers
an error other than the KRB5_KDB_NOENTRY error (CVE-2011-1530).

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Affected: 2011.

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
