FreeBSD : krb5 -- unkeyed PAC checksum handling vulnerability (9f971cea-03f5-11e0-bf50-001a926c7637)

low Nessus Plugin ID 51104

Language:

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing a security-related update.

Description

The MIT Kerberos team reports :

MIT krb5 incorrectly accepts an unkeyed checksum for PAC signatures.

An authenticated remote attacker can forge PACs if using a KDC that does not filter client-provided PAC data. This can result in privilege escalation against a service that relies on PAC contents to make authorization decisions.

Solution

Update the affected package.
