Severity 30
Port 88,750
Protocol UDP
Class Protocol
Detailed Description The system is running Kerberos 5 protocol.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in MIT Kerberos 5 releases 1.2.7 and earlier, like the followings:
- A remote user can crash the KDC.
- A user authenticated in a remote realm may be able to claim to be
other non-local users to an application server.
- It may be possible for a user to gain access to the KDC system and
database.
- Corruption of malloc pool, probably leading to program crash.
- Reference to data just past the end of an array in the KDC, for
comparison against certain fixed data. May result in crashing the
KDC.

* Note: This check solely relied on the presence of the Kerberos 5 service to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
