Debian LTS Advisory DLA-2437-1 debian-lts@lists.debian.org
https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Chris Lamb
November 07, 2020 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : krb5
Version : 1.15-1+deb9u2
CVE ID : CVE-2020-28196
Debian Bug : #973880
It was discovered that there was a denial of service vulnerability in
the MIT Kerberos network authentication system, krb5. The lack of a
limit in the ASN.1 decoder could lead to infinite recursion and allow
an attacker to overrun the stack and cause the process to crash.
For Debian 9 "Stretch", this problem has been fixed in version
1.15-1+deb9u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your krb5 packages.
For the detailed security status of krb5 please refer to
its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/krb5
