The rimap authentication mechanism in saslauthd can hit a condition
where it will start spinning and using all available CPU. This condition

Ok, trusty isn't affected because the loop there has an exit clause:
+ ret = read(s, rbuf+rc, sizeof(rbuf)-rc);
+ if ( ret<0 ) {
+ rc = ret;
+ break;
+ } else {
+ if (ret == 0) {
+ loopc += 1;
+
I'm unable to trigger this bug when running the test case on trusty,
even though the same code is there. I also tried adjusting the sleep.

Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu.
Unfortunately the logs do not say why the service failed to start:
invoke-rc.d: initscript smbd, action "start" failed.
