- Description:
- Kerberos V5 is an authentication system developed at MIT.
Abridged from the User Guide:
Under Kerberos, a client sends a request for a ticket to the
Key Distribution Center (KDC). The KDC creates a ticket-granting
ticket (TGT) for the client, encrypts it using the client's
password as the key, and sends the encrypted TGT back to the
client. The client then attempts to decrypt the TGT, using
its password. If the client successfully decrypts the TGT, it
keeps the decrypted TGT, which indicates proof of the client's
identity. The TGT permits the client to obtain additional tickets,
which give permission for specific services.
Since Kerberos negotiates authenticated, and optionally encrypted,
communications between two points anywhere on the internet, it
provides a layer of security that is not dependent on which side of a
firewall either client is on.
The Kerberos V5 package is designed to be easy to use. Most of the
commands are nearly identical to UNIX network programs you are already
used to. Kerberos V5 is a single-sign-on system, which means that you
have to type your password only once per session, and Kerberos does
the authenticating and encrypting transparently.

security/krb5*: Allow the user to specify state directory locations
localstatedir and runstatedir are set to ${PREFIX}/var and
${PREFIX}/var/run respectively. Users who wish to put their KDC
DB elsewhere can set the following in make.conf:
KRB5_LOCALSTATEDIR=/va
KRB5_RUNSTATEDIR=/var/run.
Unfortunately defaulting to /var instead of the current default would
result in MIT KDC not finding its KDC DB files. This would be disruptive
to all MIT KDC users. But new users of MIT KRB5 KDC can set the pathname
above as desired.

security/krb5-121: Fix double-free in KDC TGS processing
Upstream's commit log message:
When issuing a ticket for a TGS renew or validate request, copy only
the server field from the outer part of the header ticket to the new
ticket. Copying the whole structure causes the enc_part pointer to be
aliased to the header ticket until krb5_encrypt_tkt_part() is called,
resulting in a double-free if handle_authdata() fails.
[ghudson@mit.edu: changed the fix to avoid aliasing enc_part rather
than check for aliasing before freeing; rewrote commit message]
CVE-2023-39975:
In MIT krb5 release 1.21, an authenticated attacker can cause a KDC to
free the same pointer twice if it can induce a failure in
authorization data handling.

security/krb5: Support libedit in base
Even though libedit is in base FreeBSD, the krb5 ports still depend
on devel/libedit when the LIBEDIT option is selected. This is because
./configure uses pkgconf to determine if libedit exists, ignoring
libedit in FreeBSD base. This patch adds a new LIBEDIT_BASE option
which enables LIBEDIT (LIBEDIT_BASE) without installing the
devel/libedit port.
The GNU READLINE option will remain the default for now but it is
planned to switch the default to LIBEDIT_BASE at some point. This is
to reduce the dependency on GNU software and to bring it more into
line with the planned MIT KRB5 import into FreeBSD base. |

security/krb5*: Disable NLS when option is deselected
When the NLS option is deselected, ./configure reverts to
enable_nls=check. As some prerequisites do require NLS, NLS is
always enabled even when deslected. This ensures that when NLS
is not wanted, that it is not used, regardless of its install status. |
