Descriptions
The reply function in ftpd.c in the gssftp ftpd in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) does not initialize the length variable when auth_type has a certain value, which has unknown impact and remote authenticated attack vectors. NOTE: the original disclosure misidentifies the conditions under which the uninitialized variable is used. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue, stating " The 'length' variable is only uninitialized if 'auth_type' is neither the 'KERBEROS_V4' nor 'GSSAPI'; this condition cannot occur in the unmodified source code.
** EN DISPUTA ** La función de respuesta en ftpd.c en gssftp ftpd en MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) no inicializa la variable de longitud cuando auth_type tiene un cierto valor, que tiene un impacto desconocido y vectores de ataque autenticados remotos. NOTA: la divulgación original identifica erróneamente las condiciones bajo las cuales se utiliza la variable no inicializada. NOTA: el proveedor discute este problema, indicando que "la variable 'longitud' solo no se inicializa si 'auth_type' no es ni 'KERBEROS_V4' ni 'GSSAPI'; esta condición no puede ocurrir en el código fuente no modificado".
