FreeBSD-SA-04:08.heimdal Security Advisory The FreeBSD Project Topic: heimdal cross-realm trust vulnerability Category: core Module: crypto_heimdal Announced: 2004-05-05 Credits: Heimdal project Affects: FreeBSD 4 with Kerberos 5 installed, and FreeBSD 5 Corrected: 2004-05-05 19:49:41 UTC (RELENG_4, 4.10-PRERELEASE) 2004-05-05 19:55:46 UTC (RELENG_5_2, 5.2.1-RELEASE-p6) 2004-05-05 20:48:19 UTC (RELENG_4_10, 4.10-RELEASE-RC) 2004-05-05 20:01:06 UTC (RELENG_4_9, 4.9-RELEASE-p6) 2004-05-05 20:06:30 UTC (RELENG_4_8, 4.8-RELEASE-p19) CVE Name: CAN-2004-0371 FreeBSD only: NO For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories, including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the following sections, please visit <URL:http://www.freebsd.org/security/>;. I. Background Heimdal implements the Kerberos 5 network authentication protocols. Principals (i.e. users and services) represented in Kerberos are grouped into separate, autonomous realms. Unidirectional or bidirectional trust relationships may be established between realms to allow the principals in one realm to recognize the authenticity of principals in another. These trust relationships may be transitive. An authentication path is the ordered list of realms (and therefore KDCs) that were involved in the authentication process. The authentication path is recorded in Kerberos tickets as the `transited' field. It is possible for the Key Distribution Center (KDC) of a realm to forge part or all of the `transited' field. KDCs should validate this field before accepting authentication results, checking that each realm in the authentication path is trusted and that the path conforms to local policy. Applications are required to perform this type of checking if the KDC has not already done so. Prior to FreeBSD 5.1, Kerberos 5 was an optional component of FreeBSD, and was not installed by default. II. Problem Description Some versions of Heimdal do not perform appropriate checking of the `transited' field. III. Impact For sites that have established trust relationships with other realms, it is possible for the administrator(s) of those other realms to impersonate any Kerberos principal in any other realm. IV. Workaround Disable all inter-realm trust relationships. The Heimdal advisory listed in the References section below provides details for checking for trust relationships and disabling them. V. Solution Perform one of the following: 1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to 4-STABLE; or to the RELENG_5_2, RELENG_4_9, or RELENG_4_8 security branch dated after the correction date. 2) To patch your present system: The following patches have been verified to apply to FreeBSD 4.8, 4.9, 5.1, and 5.2 systems. a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the detached PGP signature using your PGP utility. [FreeBSD 4.8, 4.9, 5.1 with Heimdal 0.5.1] # fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-04:08/heimdal51.patch # fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-04:08/heimdal51.patch.asc [FreeBSD 5.2 with Heimdal 0.6] # fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-04:08/heimdal6.patch # fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-04:08/heimdal6.patch.asc b) Execute the following commands as root: # cd /usr/src # patch < /path/to/patch # cd /usr/src/secure/lib/libcrypto # make obj && make depend && make # cd /usr/src/kerberos5 # make obj && make depend && make && make install Be sure to restart any running services that use Kerberos, such as kdc(8) or sshd(8). Perhaps the simplest way to ensure all such applications are restarted is to reboot the system. VI.
