-----------------------------------------------------------------------
	Immunix OS Security Advisory

Packages updated:	kerberos
Affected products:	Immunix OS 6.2, 7.0-beta, and 7.0
Bugs fixed:		immunix/1608
Date:			May 30, 2001
Advisory ID:		IMNX-2001-70-022-01
Author:			Steve Beattie <steve@wirex.com>

Description: 
  Mario Lorenz discovered a possible buffer overflow in the kerberos
  gssapi-aware ftpd in the krb5-workstation package that is included
  in all versions of Immunix OS.  It is believed at this time that
  StackGuard prevents the exploitation of this vulnerability; however,
  in the absence of an exploit to test against, we recommend that all
  users of the kerberos packages update their installation.
