Hi.
There are two holes that I know of in ksu. The first is that if there
is no rcmd ticket, a successful root ticket will let you in, and
second, it is possible to spoof a principal and rcmd ticket, and it
will let you in. I know of no patches for these holes.
The second attack is slightly more difficult than the first.
