NVD Description

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

OpenAFS 1.6.8 does not properly clear the fields in the host structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (uninitialized memory access and crash) via unspecified vectors related to TMAY requests.
