This update for krb5 fixes the following security issue :

  • CVE-2016-3119: An authenticated attacker with permission to modify a principal entry could have caused kadmind to dereference a NULL pointer by supplying an empty DB argument to the modify_principal command, if kadmind is configured to use the LDAP KDB module. (bsc#971942)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
