"PAC parsing in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.19.4 and 1.20.x
before 1.20.1 has integer overflows that may lead to remote code
execution (in KDC, kadmind, or a GSS or Kerberos application server)
on 32-bit platforms (which have a resultant heap-based buffer
overflow), and cause a denial of service on other platforms. This
occurs in krb5_pac_parse in lib/krb5/krb/pac.c. Heimdal before 7.7.1
has a similar bug.
This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
