Buffer overflow in the GetStatistics64 remote procedure call (RPC) in OpenAFS 1.4.8 before 1.6.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted statsVersion argument.

OpenAFS before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.5, and 1.7.x before 1.7.26 uses weak encryption (DES) for Kerberos keys, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain the service key.

The afs_linux_lock function in afs/LINUX/osi_vnodeops.c in the kernel module in OpenAFS 1.4.14, 1.4.12, 1.4.7, and possibly other versions does not properly handle errors, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via unknown vectors. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Double free vulnerability in the Rx server process in OpenAFS 1.4.14, 1.4.12, 1.4.7, and possibly other versions allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.

The cache manager in the client in OpenAFS 1.0 through 1.4.8 and 1.5.0 through 1.5.58, and IBM AFS 3.6 before Patch 19, on Linux allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via an RX response with a large error-code value that is interpreted as a pointer and dereferenced, related to use of the ERR_PTR macro.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the cache manager in the client in OpenAFS 1.0 through 1.4.8 and 1.5.0 through 1.5.58 on Unix platforms allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via an RX response containing more data than specified in a request, related to use of XDR arrays.

The default configuration in OpenAFS 1.4.x before 1.4.4 and 1.5.x before 1.5.17 supports setuid programs within the local cell, which might allow attackers to gain privileges by spoofing a response to an AFS cache manager FetchStatus request, and setting setuid and root ownership for files in the cache.
