What is CVE-2008-5348?

This vulnerability affects the Java Runtime Environment utilized by Sun's JDK, enabling remote attackers to potentially disrupt service by consuming system resources. The issue arises specifically when the Kerberos authentication mechanism is employed, which may allow attackers to exploit unknown vectors, leading to a denial of service.
