Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-5353 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Canonical Ubuntu Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-5353/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-5353/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-5353","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-5353/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-5353","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2014-5353","GHSA-x6p8-9r6f-f728","MGASA-2014-0536","UBUNTU-CVE-2014-5353"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Kerberos KDC","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can crash the Kerberos KDC daemon via a crafted LDAP query when LDAP backend is enabled.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"kerberos_5","vendor":"mit"},{"product":"opensuse","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"solaris","vendor":"oracle"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_desktop","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_aus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_tus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_workstation","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":3.5,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"The krb5_ldap_get_password_policy_from_dn function in plugins/kdb/ldap/libkdb_ldap/ldap_pwd_policy.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.13.1, when the KDC uses LDAP, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a successful LDAP query with no results, as demonstrated by using an incorrect object type for a password policy.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-5353","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","debian:debian_linux","fedoraproject:fedora","mit:kerberos_5","opensuse:opensuse","oracle:solaris","redhat:enterprise_linux_desktop","redhat:enterprise_linux_eus","redhat:enterprise_linux_server","redhat:enterprise_linux_server_aus","redhat:enterprise_linux_server_tus","redhat:enterprise_linux_workstation"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":13,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-5354"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-5352"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-12-16","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SaltStack Salt Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2020-11651","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-04-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"OpenSMTPD Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-7247","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2020-01-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Out-of-bounds Write","id":"CVE-2019-16928","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2019-09-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2018-6789","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2018-02-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2015-2590","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2015-07-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle JRE Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2013-0422","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2013-01-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2011-3544","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2011-10-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can crash the Kerberos KDC daemon via a crafted LDAP query when LDAP backend is enabled.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-5353/"}
