It was discovered that the Kerberos kdcpreauth modules incorrectly tracked
certain client requests. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue
to bypass intended preauthentication requirements. This issue only affected
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Ubuntu 15.04. (CVE-2015-2694)
It was discovered that Kerberos incorrectly handled certain SPNEGO packets.
