Descriptions

Russ Allbery pam-krb5 before 3.13, when linked against MIT Kerberos, does not properly initialize the Kerberos libraries for setuid use, which allows local users to gain privileges by pointing an environment variable to a modified Kerberos configuration file, and then launching a PAM-based setuid application.

Russ Allbery pam-krb5 versiones anteriores a v3.13, cuando es enlazado a través de MIT Kerberos, no inicializa correctamente las librerías Kerberos al usarlas en la fijación de propietario, permitiendo a usuarios locales obtener privilegios al apuntar una variable de entorno a un fichero de configuración de Kerberos modificado, y después llamando a una aplicación de fijación de propietario basada en PAM.
