Managed to miss the last couple of sentences of your e-mail. If I read them right, the intent is to use skeletal non-MIT kerberos code? Having reimplemented most of kerberos above the cipher/hash level, my feeling is that even a minimal library is quite a lot of work. If the concern about MIT kerb is export issues, perhaps Heimdal is an option? regards, Eric -----Original Message----- From: Eric Wedel [mailto:ewedel@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, February 02, 2004 1:15 PM To: 'Ethereal development' Subject: RE: [Ethereal-dev] telnet/authentication Kerberos stuff Hi Ronnie.. You can find the MIT keytab format documented in the MIT kerberos source code, the file format is reasonably simple. I've get a slightly old tree, hopefully it hasn't moved: src/lib/krb5/keytab/file/ktf_util.c The header comment gives you the general flavor of the format, but is not exactly correct. Code's fairly short though. :-) Haven't looked at how ethereal deals with kerberos, is it just linking against MIT kerberos? regards, Eric -----Original Message----- From: ethereal-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ethereal-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Ronnie Sahlberg Sent: Monday, February 02, 2004 3:39 AM To: ethereal-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [Ethereal-dev] telnet/authentication Kerberos stuff hi list I just checked in a tiny patch for telnet to dissect some authentication options for (kerberized) telnet. currently only SEND and NAME suboptions are dissected but soon also, hopefully, the REPLY suboptions containing kerberos tickets. Please test. attached capture contain a kerberized telnet session to authenticate and login. attached is also the keytab file containing both the host/curie keytab entry for the server and also a few user principals (all user principals are joe-accounts => password==account-name) No fear, the kerberos realm where these captures/keytabs were taken from was a completely private network built from scratch to generate this capture and this keytab and nothing else. It was never attached to a real network. all systems have been scrubbed and hteir storage destroyed since. The non decrypted parts of the telnet options contain kerberos tickets and stuff, something we can use to test any keytab driven open ticket and extract the session key. It would be very useful to continue this work and the other kerberos work done to allow parsing of keytab files and opening of tickets to extract the session keys to make it easier to reverse engineer various modern protocols. Anyone with knowledge on how MIT kerberos keytab files are structured are more than welcome to email me. For our purposes we could get by with a very simple non-threaded/non-recursive parsing of these files and we dont need the complexity to link with any kerberos libs. best regards ronnie s. ********************************************************************* This e-mail and any attachment is confidential.
