<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
Under specific circumstances an attacker could execute arbitary
|
|
code with the permissions of the user running mit-krb5, which could be
|
|
the root user.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All mit-krb5 users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.3.6"</code>
