(CAN-2005-0468) A heap buffer overflow in env_opt_add() and related
functions.
(CAN-2005-0469) A global uninitialized data section buffer overflow in
slc_add_reply() and related functions.
As a result of these vulnerabilities, it may be possible for a malicious
telnet server or active network attacker to cause telnet(1) to execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running it.

When libdes was replaced with OpenSSL's libcrypto, there were a few
interfaces that the former implemented but the latter did not. Because
some software in the base system still depended upon these interfaces,
we simply included them in our libcrypto (rnd_keys.c).
Now, finally get around to removing the dependencies on these
interfaces. There were basically two cases:
des_new_random_key -- This is just a wrapper for des_random_key, and
these calls were replaced.
des_init_random_number_generator et. al. -- A few functions were used
by the application to seed libdes's PRNG. These are not necessary
when using libcrypto, as OpenSSL internally seeds the PRNG from
/dev/random. These calls were simply removed.
Again, some of the Kerberos 4 files have been taken off the vendor
branch. I do not expect there to be future imports of KTH Kerberos 4.

be truncated, or the buffer would not actually be flushed (possibly leading
to overflows when the caller assumes the operation succeeded). Change the
semantics so that these functions ensure they complete the operation before
returning.
Comment out diagnostic code enabled by '-D reports' which causes an
infinite recursion and an eventual crash.
