Hi,
The following vulnerabilities were published for krb5.
CVE-2026-40355[0]:
| In MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.22.3, there is a NULL pointer
| dereference if an application calls gss_accept_sec_context() on a
| system with a NegoEx mechanism registered in /etc/gss/mech. An
| unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger this, causing the
| process to terminate in parse_nego_message.
CVE-2026-40356[1]:
| In MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.22.3, there is an integer
| underflow and resultant out-of-bounds read if an application calls
| gss_accept_sec_context() on a system with a NegoEx mechanism
| registered in /etc/gss/mech. An unauthenticated remote attacker can
| trigger this, possibly causing the process to terminate in
| parse_message.
