Frech> XF:kerberos4-arbitrary-proxy(9733) | Description states FreeBSD, but advisory is for NetBSD. | Prosser> http://www.linuxsecurity.com/advisories/netbsd_advisory-1007.html | CHANGE> [Prosser changed vote from ACCEPT to MODIFY] | Prosser> The operating system in this CAN should also be NetBSD vice FreeBSD, same as in 0094. FreeBSD 3.5 STABLE and 4.2 STABLE are vulnerable as well. See ref | FreeBSD-SA-01:25 | http://www.linuxsecurity.com/advisories/freebsd_advisory-1153.html | or http://www.freebsd.org/security/security.html#adv | Christey> This description does not explicitly mention that the problem is | in a kerberized telnet. Need to verify that there aren"t | already other CVE"s that describe this.
