CVE ID         : CVE-2015-8312 CVE-2016-2860

Two vulnerabilities were discovered in openafs, an implementation of the
distributed filesystem AFS. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2015-8312

    Potential denial of service caused by a bug in the pioctl
    logic allowing a local user to overrun a kernel buffer with a
    single NUL byte.

CVE-2016-2860

    Peter Iannucci discovered that users from foreign Kerberos realms
    can create groups as if they were administrators.

For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in

For the testing distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed
in version 1.6.17-1.
