+Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Verify decoded kadmin C strings [CVE-2015-8629]
+
+In xdr_nullstring(), check that the decoded string is terminated with
+a zero byte and does not contain any internal zero bytes.
+
+CVE-2015-8629:
+
+In all versions of MIT krb5, an authenticated attacker can cause
+kadmind to read beyond the end of allocated memory by sending a string
+without a terminating zero byte.  Information leakage may be possible
+for an attacker with permission to modify the database.
