Category:	Fedora Local Security Checks
Title:	Fedora Core 3 FEDORA-2005-270 (krb5)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to krb5 announced via advisory FEDORA-2005-270. Updated krb5 packages which fix two buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the included Kerberos-aware telnet client are now available. Kerberos is a networked authentication system which uses a trusted third party (a KDC) to authenticate clients and servers to each other. The krb5-workstation package includes a Kerberos-aware telnet client. Two buffer overflow flaws were discovered in the way the telnet client handles messages from a server. An attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code on a victim's machine if the victim can be tricked into connecting to a malicious telnet server. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CVE-2005-0468 and CVE-2005-0469 to these issues. This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/3/ This update can also be installed with the Update Agent you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. Solution: Apply the appropriate updates. http://www.fedoranews.org/blog/index.php?p=540 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5
