NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bro package and not the bro package as distributed by Debian.

In Zeek Network Security Monitor (formerly known as Bro) before 2.6.2, a NULL pointer dereference in the Kerberos (aka KRB) protocol parser leads to DoS because a case-type index is mishandled.
