Vulnerability intelligence
CVE-2026-112315 and is rated Medium severity with a CVSS score of 5.3. It is not in the current CISA KEV record we collected. That does not prove exploitation has not occurred.
Release Notes
The RPCSEC_GSS authentication routines in lib/rpc/authgss_prot.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.4 and later do not free partially decoded buffers on failure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory leak in kadmind) via crafted RPCSEC_GSS messages.
