+ <title>MIT Kerberos 5: Arbitrary Remote Code Execution</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Multiple vulnerabilities in MIT Kerberos 5 could potentially result in the
+ execution of arbitrary code.

+ <affected>
+ <package name="app-crypt/mit-krb5" auto="yes" arch="*">

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ MIT Kerberos 5 is a suite of applications that implement the Kerberos
+ network protocol.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The Kerberos administration daemon, and possibly other applications
+ using the GSS-API or RPC libraries, could potentially call a function
+ pointer in a freed heap buffer, or attempt to free an uninitialized
+ pointer.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker may be able to crash an affected application, or
+ potentially execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All MIT Kerberos 5 users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.5.2&quot;</code>
+ </resolution>
