The Heimdal Software Kerberos 5 implementation is vulnerable to a null pointer dereferance. An attacker with network access to an application that depends on the vulnerable code path can cause the application to crash.
Isaac Boukris and Andrew Bartlett discovered that Heimdal's KDC was not properly performing checksum algorithm verifications in the S4U2Self extension module. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack and request S4U2Self tickets for any user known by the application. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM, Ubuntu 16.04 ESM and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
