A potential security vulnerability has been identified with HP-UX running rpc.ppasswdd. The risk is MEDIUM. Could be exploited remotely to create a DoS.
Goodmorning
i am preparing Nis for my test lab.Running Redhat 5.4 on master and centos for my client.Master server running portmap,ypserv,yppasswdd and client running portmap,ypbind and ypxfrd.

rpc.svcgssd(8) System Manager's Manual rpc.svcgssd(8)NAME
rpc.svcgssd - server-side rpcsec_gss daemon
SYNOPSIS
rpc.svcgssd [-n] [-v] [-r] [-i] [-f] [-p principal]
DESCRIPTION
The rpcsec_gss protocol gives a means of using the gss-api generic security api to provide security for protocols using rpc (in particular,
nfs). Before exchanging any rpc requests using rpcsec_gss, the rpc client must first establish a security context with the rpc server.
The linux kernel's implementation of rpcsec_gss depends on the userspace daemon rpc.svcgssd to handle context establishment on the rpc
server. The daemon uses files in the proc filesystem to communicate with the kernel.
OPTIONS -f Runs rpc.svcgssd in the foreground and sends output to stderr (as opposed to syslogd)
-v Increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified multiple times).
-r If the rpcsec_gss library supports setting debug level, increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified multiple times).
-i If the nfsidmap library supports setting debug level, increases the verbosity of the output (can be specified multiple times).
-p Use principal instead of the default nfs/FQDN@REALM.
-n Use the system default credentials (host/FQDN@REALM) rather than the default nfs/FQDN@REALM.
