Doc Text:
A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in Samba within the GSSAPI unwrap_des() and unwrap_des3() routines of Heimdal. The DES and Triple-DES decryption routines in the Heimdal GSSAPI library allow a length-limited write buffer overflow on malloc() allocated memory when presented with a maliciously small packet. This flaw allows a remote user to send specially crafted malicious data to the application, possibly resulting in a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Description TEJ RATHI 2022-10-26 07:29:15 UTC 
The DES (for Samba 4.11 and earlier) and Triple-DES decryption routines in the Heimdal GSSAPI library allow a length-limited write buffer overflow on malloc() allocated memory when presented with a maliciously small packet.

Affects - All versions of Samba since Samba 4.0 compiled with Heimdal Kerberos.
Samba 4.15.11, 4.16.6 and 4.17.2 have been issued as security releases to correct the defect
