CVE-2014-5354

These are all security issues fixed in the krb5-1.15-1.1 package on the GA media of openSUSE Tumbleweed.

krb5 was updated to fix four security issues.

These security issues were fixed:

• CVE-2014-5353: NULL pointer dereference when using a ticket policy name as password name (bsc#910457).
• CVE-2014-5354: NULL pointer dereference when using keyless entries (bsc#910458).
• CVE-2014-5355: Denial of service in krb5_read_message (bsc#918595).
• CVE-2015-2694: OTP and PKINIT kdcpreauth modules leading to requires_preauth bypass (bsc#928978).

krb5 was updated to fix three security issues.

Remote authenticated users could cause denial of service.

These security issues were fixed:

• CVE-2014-5353: NULL pointer dereference when using a ticket policy name as password name (bsc#910457).
• CVE-2014-5354: NULL pointer dereference when using keyless entries (bsc#910458).
• CVE-2014-5355: Denial of service in krb5_read_message (bsc#918595).

plugins/kdb/ldap/libkdb_ldap/ldap_principal2.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.12.x and 1.13.x before 1.13.1, when the KDC uses LDAP, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) by creating a database entry for a keyless principal, as demonstrated by a kadmin "add_principal -nokey" or "purgekeys -all" command.

It was discovered that Kerberos incorrectly sent old keys in response to a -randkey -keepold request. An authenticated remote attacker could use this issue to forge tickets by leveraging administrative access. This issue only affected Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-5351)

It was discovered that the libgssapi_krb5 library incorrectly processed security context handles. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-5352)

Patrik Kis discovered that Kerberos incorrectly handled LDAP queries with no results. An authenticated remote attacker could use this issue to cause the KDC to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2014-5353)

It was discovered that Kerberos incorrectly handled creating database entries for a keyless principal when using LDAP. An authenticated remote attacker could use this issue to cause the KDC to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2014-5354)

It was discovered that Kerberos incorrectly handled memory when processing XDR data. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause kadmind to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-9421)

It was discovered that Kerberos incorrectly handled two-component server principals. A remote attacker could use this issue to perform impersonation attacks. (CVE-2014-9422)

It was discovered that the libgssrpc library leaked uninitialized bytes. A remote attacker could use this issue to possibly obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2014-9423)
