Technical Description:
----------------------
* Kerberos Vulnerability - CAN-2005-1981: A denial of service vulnerability exists that could allow an attacker to send a specially crafted message to a Windows domain controller that could cause the service that is responsible for authenticating users in an Active Directory domain to stop responding.
* PKINIT Vulnerability - CAN-2005-1982: This is an information disclosure and spoofing vulnerability. This vulnerability could allow an attacker to tamper with certain information that is sent from a domain controller and potentially access sensitive client network communication. Users could believe they are accessing a trusted server when in reality they are accessing a malicious server. However, an attacker would first have to inject themselves into the middle of an authentication session between a client and a domain controller.

-- NTBugtraq Editor's Note: Most viruses these days use spoofed email addresses. As such, using an Anti-Virus product which automatically notifies the perceived sender of a message it believes is infected may well cause more harm than good. Someone who did not actually send you a virus may receive the notification and scramble their support staff to find an infection which never existed in the first place. Suggest such notifications be disabled by whomever is responsible for your AV, or at least that the idea is considered. --
