CVE-2015-3206: checkPassword() does not verify KDC authenticity
(updated )
The python-kerberos checkPassword() function does not verify that the KDC that it is authenticating with is the one that it intended to communicate with. This could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to spoof a KDC when an application using python-kerberos attempts to verify a password via the checkPassword() function.
