in the USN-4314-1 advisory.
Russ Allbery discovered that pam-krb5 incorrectly handled some responses. An attacker could possibly use
this issue to execute arbitrary code.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
