Synopsis
========

Heimdal contains cross-realm vulnerability allowing someone with
control over a realm to impersonate anyone in the cross-realm trust
path.

Background

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
app-crypt/heimdal <= 0.6.0 >= 0.6.1

Description
===========

Heimdal does not properly perform certain consistency checks for
cross-realm requests, which allows remote attackers with control of a
realm to impersonate others in the cross-realm trust path.

Impact

other users in the cross-realm trust path.

Workaround
==========

A workaround is not currently known for this issue. All users are
advised to upgrade to the latest version of the affected package.

Resolution

Heimdal users should upgrade to version 0.6.1 or later:

# emerge sync

# emerge -pv ">=app-crypt/heimdal-0.6.1"
