security advisory text

Samba 4.7 and later versions have shipped with code to support building
the Samba AD DC using MIT Kerberos.  Since the time of the release a
number of issues, including security issues, have been found by real-
world use.  However sadly the Samba Team has not been able to resource
the resolution of these issues to a standard that we are happy with,
and so this release marks this mode more clearly as experimental.  

As an experimental feature, we will not be issuing security patches for
this feature, including for:

 S4U2Self crash with MIT KDC build    
 https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13571

For further information, please see 
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Running_a_Samba_AD_DC_with_MIT_Kerbero
s_KDC


While not removed, the MIT Kerberos build of the Samba AD DC is
considered experimental.  Because Samba will not issue security
patches for this configuration, such builds now require the explicit
configure option: --with-experimental-mit-ad-dc
