CVE-2015-2694

NameCVE-2015-2694
DescriptionThe kdcpreauth modules in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.12.x and 1.13.x before 1.13.2 do not properly track whether a client's request has been validated, which allows remote attackers to bypass an intended preauthentication requirement by providing (1) zero bytes of data or (2) an arbitrary realm name, related to plugins/preauth/otp/main.c and plugins/preauth/pkinit/pkinit_srv.c.

Notes

[wheezy] - krb5 <no-dsa> (Minor issue and can be fixed in a future DSA)
[squeeze] - krb5 <no-dsa> (Minor issue and can be fixed in a future DSA)
Upstream ticket: http://krbdev.mit.edu/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=8160
Upstream commit: https://github.com/krb5/krb5/commit/e3b5a5e5267818c97750b266df50b6a3d4649604
wheezy marked as no-dsa since OTP plugin not present. But the issue
might affect any out-of-tree plugins with similar bug as the OTP
has. Thus basicaly only krb5/1.12 is affected.
