The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-7542-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Kerberos allowed the usage of weak cryptographic standards. An attacker could     possibly use this issue to expose sensitive information.

    This update introduces the allow_rc4 and allow_des3 configuration options, and disables the usage of RC4     and 3DES ciphers by default. Users are advised to discontinue their usage and upgrade to stronger     encryption protocols. If the use of the insecure RC4 and 3DES algorithms is necessary, they can be enabled     with the aforementioned configuration options.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2025:9430 advisory.

    Kerberos is a network authentication system, which can improve the security of your network by eliminating     the insecure practice of sending passwords over the network in unencrypted form. It allows clients and     servers to authenticate to each other with the help of a trusted third party, the Kerberos key     distribution center (KDC).

    - -------------------------------------------------------------------------     Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4195-1                debian-lts@lists.debian.org     https://www.debian.org/lts/security/                   Bastien Roucaris     May 30, 2025                                  https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

    Package        : krb5     Version        : 1.18.3-6+deb11u7     CVE ID         : CVE-2025-3576     Debian Bug     : 1103525

    A Vulnerability in the MIT Kerberos implementation     allows GSSAPI-protected messages using RC4-HMAC-MD5     to be spoofed due to weaknesses in the MD5 checksum design.
    If RC4 is preferred over stronger encryption types,     an attacker could exploit MD5 collisions to forge message     integrity codes. This may lead to unauthorized     message tampering.

    In order to fix CVE-2025-3576, vulnerable cryptographic     algorithms for tickets need to be disabled explicitly     with the new allow_rc4 or allow_des3 variables.

    According to the vulnerability report Kerberos?? RC4-HMAC broken     in practice: spoofing PACs with MD5 collisions, disabling     this cryptographic algorithm may break some older     authentication systems, and administrators should test carefully.

    Because of the risk of breaking certain configurations, the     new allow_rc4 or allow_des3 are being treated as having a     default value of 'true' for updates to older Debian releases.
    This leaves the 3DES and RC4 algorithms enabled, but administrators     are strongly encouraged to disable them after verifying     compatibility in their environments.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version     1.18.3-6+deb11u7.

    We recommend that you upgrade your krb5 packages.
