    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2372-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Florian Weimer December 25, 2011 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : heimdal
    Vulnerability : buffer overflow
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2011-4862

    It was discovered that the Kerberos support for telnetd contains a pre-authentication buffer overflow, which may enable remote attackers
    who can connect to the Telnet to execute arbitrary code with root
    privileges.

    For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.2.dfsg.1-2.1+lenny1.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.4.0~git20100726.dfsg.1-2+squeeze1.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution
    (sid), this problem will be fixed soon.

    We recommend that you upgrade your heimdal packages.
