problem description

The following vulnerabilities were discovered: 1. Double-free, uninitialized data vulnerabilities in krb5kdc, when Kerberos 4 support is enabled in the Novell Kerberos KDC (MITKRB5-SA-2008-001). The patch fixes this issue and the Kerberos 4 support is now disabled. 2. Use of high-numbered file descriptors in the RPC library, used by kadmind, can cause references past the end of an array (MITKRB5-SA-2008-002). The patch fixes this issue.
