Package : apache-mod_auth_kerb
Date : November 23, 2006
Affected: Corporate 4.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

An off-by-one error in the der_get_oid function in mod_auth_kerb 5.0
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a
crafted Kerberos message that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow in
the component array.

Packages have been patched to correct this issue.
