Vulnerability intelligence
CVE-2026-112314 and is rated High severity with a CVSS score of 7.5. It is not in the current CISA KEV record we collected. That does not prove exploitation has not occurred.
Release Notes
clnttcp_call() in lib/rpc/clnt_tcp.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) does not free the RPC reply verifier between retries, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory leak in GSS-RPC client programs) by injecting RPC replies with mismatched XIDs or by triggering authentication retries.
