Description Mark J. Cox 2007-08-06 09:30:47 UTC 
MIT notified us of a kadmind uninitialized pointer.  Will be public on 04
September 2007, at 14:00 US/Eastern time.

This issue has not been triaged as it may well affect recent RHEL distributions
with a different severity (flaw type is likely caught by fortify_source)
