In order to fix CVE-2025-3576, vulnerable cryptographic
algorithms for tickets need to be disabled explicitly
with the new allow_rc4 or allow_des3 variables.
According to the vulnerability report "Kerberosâ RC4-HMAC broken
in practice: spoofing PACs with MD5 collisions", disabling
this cryptographic algorithm may break some older
authentication systems, and administrators should test carefully.
Because of the risk of breaking certain configurations, the
new allow_rc4 or allow_des3 are being treated as having a
default value of 'true' for updates to older Debian releases.
This leaves the 3DES and RC4 algorithms enabled, but administrators
are strongly encouraged to disable them after verifying
compatibility in their environments.
For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
1.18.3-6+deb11u7.
We recommend that you upgrade your krb5 packages.
