Sol Jerome discovered that the Kerberos kadmind service did not correctly
free memory. An unauthenticated remote attacker could send specially
crafted traffic to crash the kadmind process, leading to a denial of
service. (CVE-2010-0629)
It was discovered that Kerberos did not correctly free memory in
the GSSAPI library. If a remote attacker were able to manipulate an
application using GSSAPI carefully, the service could crash, leading to
a denial of service. (Ubuntu 8.10 was not affected.) (CVE-2007-5901,
CVE-2007-5971)
It was discovered that Kerberos did not correctly free memory in the
GSSAPI and kdb libraries. If a remote attacker were able to manipulate
an application using these libraries carefully, the service could crash,
leading to a denial of service. (Only Ubuntu 8.04 LTS was affected.)
