Subject: CVE Request: OpenAFS: directory information leaks
(OPENAFS-SA-2016-003)
Hi
The OpenAFS project has released a security advisory:
https://www.openafs.org/pages/security/OPENAFS-SA-2016-003.txt
OpenAFS Security Advisory 2016-003
> Topic: directory information leakage
>
> Issued: 30 November, 2016
> Affected: OpenAFS client versions 1.0 through 1.6.19
> OpenAFS servers versions 1.0 through 1.6.19
>
> The contents of OpenAFS directories may be leaked in client cache partitions,
> in fileserver vice partitions, and on the wire for certain RPCs.
>
> SUMMARY
> =======
>
> Due to incomplete initialization or clearing of reused memory, OpenAFS
> directory objects are likely to contain "dead" directory entry information.
> This extraneous information is not active - that is, it is logically invisible
> to the fileserver and client. However, the leaked information is physically
> visible on the fileserver vice partition, on the wire in FetchData replies and
> other RPCs, and on the client cache partition. This constitutes a leak of
> directory information.
I'm attaching the full advisory for reference (and to have it int the
list archives).
