A brief while ago l0pht released a Kerb4 advisory:

Release: 11/22/96
Application: Kerb4
Platforms: Sites running Kerb4
Severity: Remote users can dictionary crack kerberos user accounts without
needing to know the username or kerberos realm name.
Author: mudge@l0pht.com

We are pleased to be able to release the tool mentioned in the advisory
to the internet community. We had previously been asked not to release
the tool by a Friend of the L0pht. This Friend has now made it known to us
that their interest in said matter is done (bigger and better things I
guess).

As usual, standard disclamers apply: ie do not do _bad_ things with this
tool. We take no responsibility for problems, hardships, damages incurred,
etc. Caution: filling is hot.

The tool is available as a uuencoded compressed tar file off of the
URL http://www.l0pht.com/advisories.html under the Kerb4 advisory.

If people are unable to retrieve the file send me e-mail and I will dump
it to these mailing lists.

enjoy,

.mudge
