Descriptions
The xdr_nullstring function in lib/kadm5/kadm_rpc_xdr.c in kadmind in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.13.4 and 1.14.x before 1.14.1 does not verify whether '\0' characters exist as expected, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted string.
La función xdr_nullstring en lib/kadm5/kadm_rpc_xdr.c en kadmind in MIT Kerberos 5 (también conocido como krb5) en versiones anteriores a 1.13.4 y 1.14.x en versiones anteriores a 1.14.1 no verifica si existen caracteres '\0' según lo esperado, lo que permite a usuarios remotos autenticados obtener información sensible o causar una denegación de servicio (lectura fuera de rango) a través de una cadena manipulada.
An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the kadmind service of MIT Kerberos. An authenticated attacker could send a maliciously crafted message to force kadmind to read beyond the end of allocated memory, and write the memory contents to the KDC database if the attacker has write permission, leading to information disclosure.
