    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1969-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Giuseppe Iuculano January 12, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : krb5
    Vulnerability : integer underflow
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE IDs : CVE-2009-4212
    Debian Bug : none

    It was discovered that krb5, a system for authenticating users and services on a
    network, is prone to integer underflow in the AES and RC4 decryption operations of
    the crypto library. A remote attacker can cause crashes, heap corruption, or, under extraordinarily unlikely conditions, arbitrary code execution.


    For the old stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.4.4-7etch8.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5lenny2.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem will be fixed soon.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.8+dfsg~alpha1-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your krb5 package.

    Upgrade instructions
    - --------------------

    wget url
    will fetch the file for you
    dpkg -i file.deb
    will install the referenced file.

    If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
    sources.list as given below:

    apt-get update
    will update the internal database
    apt-get upgrade
    will install corrected packages

    You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
    footer to the proper configuration.
