9.0 HIGH — AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C

Description

The krb5_gss_process_context_token function in lib/gssapi/krb5/process_context_token.c in the libgssapi_krb5 library in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) through 1.11.5, 1.12.x through 1.12.2, and 1.13.x before 1.13.1 does not properly maintain security-context handles, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and double free, and daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted GSSAPI traffic, as demonstrated by traffic to kadmind.

Affected configurations

• mit kerberos 5 1.11 • mit kerberos 5 1.11.1 • mit kerberos 5 1.11.2 • mit kerberos 5 1.11.3 • mit kerberos 5 1.11.4 • mit kerberos 5 1.11.5 • mit kerberos 5 1.12 • mit kerberos 5 1.12.1 • mit kerberos 5 1.12.2 • mit kerberos 5 1.13
