From: Bonnie King 
Subject: Security ERRATA Moderate: krb5 on SL5.x, SL6.x i386/x86_64
MIME-Version: 1.0

Synopsis: Moderate: krb5 security update
Advisory ID: SLSA-2013:0942-1
Issue Date: 2013-06-12
CVE Numbers: CVE-2002-2443
--

It was found that kadmind's kpasswd service did not perform any validation
on incoming network packets, causing it to reply to all requests. A remote
attacker could use this flaw to send spoofed packets to a kpasswd service
that appear to come from kadmind on a different server, causing the
services to keep replying packets to each other, consuming network
bandwidth and CPU. (CVE-2002-2443)

After installing the updated packages, the krb5kdc and kadmind daemons
will be restarted automatically.
