MIT Kerberos5 Multiple Integer Underflow Vulnerabilities impact MIT Kerberos5 versions 1.3 through 1.6.3, and version 1.7. Multiple Integer Underflow due to errors within the 'AES' and 'RC4' decryption functionality in the crypto library in MIT Kerberos when processing ciphertext with a length that is too short to be valid. Successful exploitation will allow an attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) or possibly execute arbitrary code. Apply the patch mentioned in the references
