heimdal: updated to 7.8
Heimdal 7.8 Latest
This release includes both the Heimdal 7.7.1 Security Vulnerability fixes and \
non-Security bug fixes/improvements.
Security Vulnerabilities:
CVE-2022-42898 PAC parse integer overflows
CVE-2022-3437 Overflows and non-constant time leaks in DES{,3} and arcfour
CVE-2022-41916 Fix Unicode normalization read of 1 bytes past end of array
CVE-2021-44758 A null pointer de-reference DoS in SPNEGO acceptors
CVE-2021-3671 A null pointer de-reference when handling missing sname in TGS-REQ
CVE-2022-44640 Heimdal KDC: invalid free in ASN.1 codec
Note that CVE-2022-44640 is a severe vulnerability, possibly a 10.0
on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) v3, as we believe
it should be possible to get an RCE on a KDC, which means that
credentials can be compromised that can be used to impersonate
anyone in a realm or forest of realms.
Heimdal's ASN.1 compiler generates code that allows specially
crafted DER encodings of CHOICEs to invoke the wrong free function
on the decoded structure upon decode error. This is known to impact
the Heimdal KDC, leading to an invalid free() of an address partly
or wholly under the control of the attacker, in turn leading to a
potential remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability.
This error affects the DER codec for all extensible CHOICE types
used in Heimdal, though not all cases will be exploitable. We have
not completed a thorough analysis of all the Heimdal components
affected, thus the Kerberos client, the X.509 library, and other
parts, may be affected as well.
This bug has been in Heimdal's ASN.1 compiler since 2005, but it may
only affect Heimdal 1.6 and up. It was first reported by Douglas
Bagnall, though it had been found independently by the Heimdal
maintainers via fuzzing a few weeks earlier.
While no zero-day exploit is known, such an exploit will likely be
available soon after public disclosure.
