Descriptions

In the Linux kernel before version 4.12, Kerberos 5 tickets decoded when using the RXRPC keys incorrectly assumes the size of a field. This could lead to the size-remaining variable wrapping and the data pointer going over the end of the buffer. This could possibly lead to memory corruption and possible privilege escalation.

en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a la 4.12, los tickets de Kerberos 5 descifrados al emplear las claves RXRPC de forma incorrecta asumen el tamaño de un campo. Esto podría conducir a un wrapping de la variable que mantiene el tamaño y en que el puntero de datos vaya más allá final del búfer. Esto podría conducir a una corrupción de memoria y a un posible escalado de privilegios.
