In certain application programs packaged in the MIT Kerberos 5 source distribution, calls to setuid() and seteuid() are not always checked for success and may fail with some PAM configurations. A local user could exploit one of these vulnerabilities to result in privilege escalation. No exploit code is known to exist at this time.
