  *  Security Update
  * Verify decoded kadmin C strings [CVE-2015-8629]
    CVE-2015-8629: 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. (Closes: #813296)
  * Check for null kadm5 policy name [CVE-2015-8630]
    CVE-2015-8630: An authenticated attacker with permission to modify a
    principal entry can cause kadmind to dereference a null pointer by
    supplying a null policy value but including KADM5_POLICY in the mask.
    (Closes: #813127)
  * Fix leaks in kadmin server stubs [CVE-2015-8631]
    CVE-2015-8631: An authenticated attacker can cause kadmind to leak
    memory by supplying a null principal name in a request which uses one.
    Repeating these requests will eventually cause kadmind to exhaust all
    available memory. (Closes: #813126)
