It was discovered that the Key Distribution Center (KDC) in Kerberos 5 crashes when processing certain crafted requests :

  • CVE-2011-1528 When the LDAP backend is used, remote users can trigger a KDC daemon crash and denial of service.

  • CVE-2011-1529 When the LDAP or Berkeley DB backend is used, remote users can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the KDC daemon and a denial of service.

The oldstable distribution (lenny) is not affected by these problems.
