Synopsis:	Important: krb5 security update

Issue date:	2011-03-16

CVE Names:	CVE-2011-0284



A double-free flaw was found in the way the MIT Kerberos KDC handled

initial authentication requests (AS-REQ), when the KDC was configured to

provide the PKINIT capability. A remote attacker could use this flaw to

cause the KDC daemon to abort by using a specially-crafted AS-REQ 

request. (CVE-2011-0284)



After installing the updated packages, the krb5kdc daemon will be 

restarted automatically.
