The krb5 telnet service did not appropriately verify user names. A remote attacker could log in as the root user by requesting a specially crafted user name. (CVE-2007-0956)
The krb5 syslog library did not correctly verify the size of log messages. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted message and execute arbitrary code with root privileges. (CVE-2007-0957)
The krb5 administration service was vulnerable to a double-free in the GSS RPC library. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request and execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
(CVE-2007-1216).
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
