The krb5_ldap_lockout_audit function in the Key Distribution Center
(KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.8 through 1.8.4 and 1.9 through
1.9.1, when the LDAP back end is used, allows remote attackers to cause
a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) via unspecified
vectors, related to the locked_check_p function (CVE-2011-1528).

The lookup_lockout_policy function in the Key Distribution Center (KDC)
in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) 1.8 through 1.8.4 and 1.9 through 1.9.1,
