==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Summary:

Debian-LAN could be made to change Kerberos user passwords or run programs
as an administrator.

Software Description:
- debian-lan-config: FAI config space for the Debian-LAN system

Details:

Wolfgang Schweer discovered that Debian-LAN did not properly handle ACLs
for the Kerberos admin server. A local attacker could possibly use this
issue to change the passwords of other users, leading to root privilege
escalation. (CVE-2019-3467)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

  debian-lan-config               0.23+deb9u1build0.18.04.1
