Nico reported this bug in April. It was assigned #8573 (which I will
merge this ticket into). We fixed the encrypted challenge client code
to check for no armor key on master, and marked the fix for pullup to
the 1.15 and 1.14 release branches. We haven't yet pulled up the fix to
the release branches or issued patch releases, so it's not surprising
that you would still see the bug in OS-packaged krb5 builds.
I agree that it is also weird that the client can walk down the preauth
mechanisms via prompter interrupts (or other prompter failures),
especially for these two mechanisms. Your patch might be a good idea
independent of this segfault bug; I will think about it.
