CVE-2019-14844 2 Fedoraproject, Mit 2 Fedora, Kerberos 5 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
A flaw was found in, Fedora versions of krb5 from 1.16.1 to, including 1.17.x, in the way a Kerberos client could crash the KDC by sending one of the RFC 4556 "enctypes". A remote unauthenticated user could use this flaw to crash the KDC.
CVE-2018-5730 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Mit and 1 more 6 Debian Linux, Fedora, Kerberos 5 and 3 more 2026-06-17 5.5 MEDIUM 3.8 LOW
MIT krb5 1.6 or later allows an authenticated kadmin with permission to add principals to an LDAP Kerberos database to circumvent a DN containership check by supplying both a "linkdn" and "containerdn" database argument, or by supplying a DN string which is a left extension of a container DN string but is not hierarchically within the container DN.
CVE-2018-5729 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Mit and 1 more 6 Debian Linux, Fedora, Kerberos 5 and 3 more 2026-06-17 6.5 MEDIUM 4.7 MEDIUM
MIT krb5 1.6 or later allows an authenticated kadmin with permission to add principals to an LDAP Kerberos database to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) or bypass a DN container check by supplying tagged data that is internal to the database module.
CVE-2018-5710 1 Mit 1 Kerberos 2026-06-17 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
An issue was discovered in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) through 1.16. The pre-defined function "strlen" is getting a "NULL" string as a parameter value in plugins/kdb/ldap/libkdb_ldap/ldap_principal2.c in the Key Distribution Center (KDC), which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a modified kadmin client.
CVE-2018-5709 1 Mit 1 Kerberos 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
An issue was discovered in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) through 1.16. There is a variable "dbentry->n_key_data" in kadmin/dbutil/dump.c that can store 16-bit data but unknowingly the developer has assigned a "u4" variable to it, which is for 32-bit data. An attacker can use this vulnerability to affect other artifacts of the database as we know that a Kerberos database dump file contains trusted data.
CVE-2018-20217 2 Debian, Mit 2 Debian Linux, Kerberos 2026-06-17 3.5 LOW 5.3 MEDIUM
A Reachable Assertion issue was discovered in the KDC in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.17. If an attacker can obtain a krbtgt ticket using an older encryption type (single-DES, triple-DES, or RC4), the attacker can crash the KDC by making an S4U2Self request.
CVE-2017-7562 2 Mit, Redhat 5 Kerberos 5, Enterprise Linux, Enterprise Linux Desktop and 2 more 2026-06-17 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
An authentication bypass flaw was found in the way krb5's certauth interface before 1.16.1 handled the validation of client certificates. A remote attacker able to communicate with the KDC could potentially use this flaw to impersonate arbitrary principals under rare and erroneous circumstances.
CVE-2017-15088 1 Mit 1 Kerberos 5 2026-06-17 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
plugins/preauth/pkinit/pkinit_crypto_openssl.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) through 1.15.2 mishandles Distinguished Name (DN) fields, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) in situations involving untrusted X.509 data, related to the get_matching_data and X509_NAME_oneline_ex functions. NOTE: this has security relevance only in use cases outside of the MIT Kerberos distribution, e.g., the use of get_matching_data in KDC certauth plugin code that is specific to Red Hat.
CVE-2017-11462 2 Fedoraproject, Mit 2 Fedora, Kerberos 5 2026-06-17 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
Double free vulnerability in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) allows attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors involving automatic deletion of security contexts on error.
CVE-2017-11368 2 Fedoraproject, Mit 3 Fedora, Kerberos, Kerberos 5 2026-06-17 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
In MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.7 and later, an authenticated attacker can cause a KDC assertion failure by sending invalid S4U2Self or S4U2Proxy requests.
CVE-2016-3120 1 Mit 1 Kerberos 5 2026-06-17 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
The validate_as_request function in kdc_util.c in the Key Distribution Center (KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.13.6 and 1.4.x before 1.14.3, when restrict_anonymous_to_tgt is enabled, uses an incorrect client data structure, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via an S4U2Self request.
CVE-2016-3119 2 Mit, Opensuse 3 Kerberos 5, Leap, Opensuse 2026-06-17 3.5 LOW 5.3 MEDIUM
The process_db_args function in plugins/kdb/ldap/libkdb_ldap/ldap_principal2.c in the LDAP KDB module in kadmind in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) through 1.13.4 and 1.14.x through 1.14.1 mishandles the DB argument, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a crafted request to modify a principal.
CVE-2015-8631 5 Debian, Mit, Opensuse and 2 more 11 Debian Linux, Kerberos 5, Leap and 8 more 2026-06-17 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
Multiple memory leaks in kadmin/server/server_stubs.c in kadmind in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.13.4 and 1.14.x before 1.14.1 allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a request specifying a NULL principal name.
CVE-2015-8630 1 Mit 1 Kerberos 5 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The (1) kadm5_create_principal_3 and (2) kadm5_modify_principal functions in lib/kadm5/srv/svr_principal.c in kadmind in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.12.x and 1.13.x before 1.13.4 and 1.14.x before 1.14.1 allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) by specifying KADM5_POLICY with a NULL policy name.
CVE-2015-8629 5 Debian, Mit, Opensuse and 2 more 12 Debian Linux, Kerberos 5, Leap and 9 more 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 5.3 MEDIUM
The xdr_nullstring function in lib/kadm5/kadm_rpc_xdr.c in kadmind in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.13.4 and 1.14.x before 1.14.1 does not verify whether '\0' characters exist as expected, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted string.
CVE-2015-2698 1 Mit 1 Kerberos 5 2026-06-17 8.5 HIGH N/A
The iakerb_gss_export_sec_context function in lib/gssapi/krb5/iakerb.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.14 pre-release 2015-09-14 improperly accesses a certain pointer, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by interacting with an application that calls the gss_export_sec_context function. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2015-2696.
CVE-2015-2697 6 Canonical, Debian, Mit and 3 more 9 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Kerberos 5 and 6 more 2026-06-17 4.0 MEDIUM N/A
The build_principal_va function in lib/krb5/krb/bld_princ.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.14 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and KDC crash) via an initial '\0' character in a long realm field within a TGS request.
CVE-2015-2696 5 Canonical, Debian, Mit and 2 more 8 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Kerberos 5 and 5 more 2026-06-17 7.1 HIGH N/A
lib/gssapi/krb5/iakerb.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.14 relies on an inappropriate context handle, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer read and process crash) via a crafted IAKERB packet that is mishandled during a gss_inquire_context call.
CVE-2015-2695 6 Canonical, Debian, Mit and 3 more 9 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Kerberos 5 and 6 more 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
lib/gssapi/spnego/spnego_mech.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.14 relies on an inappropriate context handle, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer read and process crash) via a crafted SPNEGO packet that is mishandled during a gss_inquire_context call.
CVE-2015-2694 1 Mit 1 Kerberos 5 2026-06-17 5.8 MEDIUM N/A
The kdcpreauth modules in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.12.x and 1.13.x before 1.13.2 do not properly track whether a client's request has been validated, which allows remote attackers to bypass an intended preauthentication requirement by providing (1) zero bytes of data or (2) an arbitrary realm name, related to plugins/preauth/otp/main.c and plugins/preauth/pkinit/pkinit_srv.c.
