Critical Kerberos Flaw Revealed
doi writes "ZD Net is carrying a story about '...a critical flaw that could allow hackers to circumvent the secure networking system...The problem lies with software in MIT Kerberos 5 called kadmind4 (Kerberos v4 compatibility administration daemon), which allows compatibility with older administrative clients. A buffer stack overflow allows an attacker to use a specially formed request to gain access to the KDC with the privileges of a user running kadmind4.' It affects all MIT-derived versions of Kerberos 4 and 5."
Good thing I use a secure protocol like telnet. When was the last telnet remote r00t exploit?

Keep up the good work with the funny and original text substitution. My colleagues and I had quite a chuckle at Micro$oft's (heh heh) expense.
I don't give a RED FUCK about any of that.
Dear Sir,
Why don't you go to your beloved bugtraq and OpenBSD security list and never return?
Okay, so there's a root exploit in kerberos. SHocking, I'm sure. It's not like M$ Outlook doesn't have dozens of such exploits. It's been widely publicized, the patch is available...isn't this how security administration is supposed to work?
What the hell was that about... Timecube? Anyone want to fill me in on this thing? I started to read it but it really hurt my eyes to see text that big.

YES AND THERE ARE 4 24 HOUR DAYS WITH EATH EARTH ROTATION!
Hmmm.... Call me silly,. stupid, and evil, but.... Why 4? Why not soething more tangable like 24 (1 for each general time-zone, discounting exception), or better yet, how about an infinite number of great circles passing through the poles creating an infinte number of longitude lines... Wait-- that is critical to Astrology. It must be STUPID AND EVIL even though it is true mathematically.
