Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2004-076
2004-02-16
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : freeradius
Version : 0.9.3
Release : 1.1
Summary : High-performance and highly configurable free RADIUS server.
Description :
The FreeRADIUS Server Project is a high performance and highly configurable GPL'd free RADIUS server. The server is similar in some respects to Livingston's 2.0 server. While FreeRADIUS started as a variant of the Cistron RADIUS server, they don't share a lot in common any more. It now has many more features than Cistron or Livingston, and is much more configurable.
FreeRADIUS is an Internet authentication daemon, which implements the RADIUS protocol, as defined in RFC 2865 (and others). It allows Network Access Servers (NAS boxes) to perform authentication for dial-up users. There are also RADIUS clients available for Web servers, firewalls, Unix logins, and more. Using RADIUS allows authentication and authorization for a network to be centralized, and minimizes the amount of re-configuration which has to be done when adding or deleting new users.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
This version corrects a flaw in 0.9.2 (and all earlier versions of the server) which may allow an attacker to DoS the server. The bug does not look to be easily exploitable, as it overwrites the heap (not the stack), and any exploit code must be in the form of a valid RADIUS packet.
