Original description The description as published by the source.
The RPCSEC_GSS authentication routines in lib/rpc/authgss_prot.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.4 and later do not free partially decoded buffers on failure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory leak in kadmind) via crafted RPCSEC_GSS messages.
