CVE-2001-1323: Mit Kerberos 5

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Buffer overflow in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.2.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via base-64 encoded data, which is not properly handled when the radix_encode function processes file glob output from the ftpglob function.

Affected products

• Mit Kerberos 5: before 1.2.2 (fixed in 1.2.2)
