Synopsis

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in OpenAFS, worst of which can
allow attackers to execute arbitrary code

Background
=========
OpenAFS is an client-server program suite for federated file sharing
and replicated content distribution.

Affected packages
================
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package              /     Vulnerable     /            Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------

Description
==========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenAFS. Please review
the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.

Impact
=====
An attacker could potentially execute arbitrary code with the
permissions of the user running the AFS server, cause a Denial of
Service condition, or gain access to sensitive information.
Additionally, an attacker could compromise a cell's private key,
allowing them to impersonate any user in the cell.

Workaround
=========
There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
