3. Description:

Kerberos is a network authentication system which allows clients and
servers to authenticate to each other using symmetric encryption and a
trusted third party, the Key Distribution Center (KDC).

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was discovered in the MIT Kerberos Generic
Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API) library. A remote,
authenticated attacker could use this flaw to crash any server application
using the GSS-API authentication mechanism, by sending a specially-crafted
GSS-API token with a missing checksum field. (CVE-2010-1321)

Red Hat would like to thank the MIT Kerberos Team for responsibly reporting
this issue. Upstream acknowledges Shawn Emery of Oracle as the original
reporter.

All krb5 users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported patch to correct this issue. All running services using the MIT
Kerberos libraries must be restarted for the update to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

582466 - CVE-2010-1321 krb5: null pointer dereference in GSS-API library leads to DoS (MITKRB5-SA-2010-005)
