1.286 deraadt 56: Two problems have recently been discovered in the KerberosIV code.<p>
57: 1. A symlink problem was discovered in the KerberosIV password checking
58: routines /usr/bin/su and /usr/bin/login, which makes it possible for a
59: local user to overwrite any file on the local machine.<p>
1.287 jufi 60: 2. It is possible to specify environment variables in telnet
1.286 deraadt 61: which will be passed over the to the remote host. This makes it
62: possible to set environment variables on the remote side, including
63: ones that have special meaning on the server. It is not clear at this
64: time what the impact is, but we recommend everyone to upgrade their
1.289 jufi 65: machines immediately.<p>
