Title: OpenSSL Improper Input Validation Vulnerability
Overview:

The kssl_keytab_is_available function in ssl/kssl.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8n when Kerberos is enabled but Kerberos configuration files cannot be opened does not check a certain return value which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via SSL cipher negotiation as demonstrated by a chroot installation of Dovecot or stunnel without Kerberos configuration files inside the chroot.
