The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200707-11 (MIT Kerberos 5: Arbitrary remote code execution)

kadmind is affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the RPC library     shipped with MIT Kerberos 5. It fails to properly handle zero-length     RPC credentials (CVE-2007-2442) and the RPC library can write past the     end of the stack buffer (CVE-2007-2443). Furthermore kadmind fails to     do proper bounds checking (CVE-2007-2798).

Impact :

A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities     to execute arbitrary code with root privileges.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
