Synopsis:	Critical: krb5 security update
Issue date:	2010-01-12
CVE Names:	CVE-2009-4212

CVE-2009-4212 krb: KDC integer overflows in AES and RC4 decryption 
routines (MITKRB5-SA-2009-004)

Multiple integer underflow flaws, leading to heap-based corruption, were
found in the way the MIT Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) 
decrypted ciphertexts encrypted with the Advanced Encryption Standard 
(AES) and ARCFOUR (RC4) encryption algorithms. If a remote KDC client 
were able to provide a specially-crafted AES- or RC4-encrypted 
ciphertext or texts, it could potentially lead to either a denial of 
service of the central KDC (KDC crash or abort upon processing the 
crafted ciphertext), or arbitrary code execution with the privileges of 
the KDC (i.e., root privileges). (CVE-2009-4212)

All running services using the MIT Kerberos libraries must be restarted 
for the update to take effect.
