MIT krb5-1.6.3-beta2 is now available for download from

         http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/dist/

The main MIT Kerberos web page is

         http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/

Please send comments to the krbdev list in the next few weeks.  The
beta period will be somewhat longer than usual due to the
incorporation of PKINIT.

The only significant changes since krb5-1.6.3-beta1 have involved KfW
support and some PKINIT build issues.

Major changes in 1.6.3 include:

    * fix CVE-2007-3999, CVE-2007-4743 svc_auth_gss.c buffer overflow
    * fix CVE-2007-4000 modify_policy vulnerability 

The above are two kadmind vulnerabilities described in
MITKRB5-SA-2007-006. CVE-2007-3999 is actually a vulnerability in the
RPC library.

    * Add PKINIT support 

At this point, PKINIT support should be considered to be ALPHA
code. We would greatly appreciate testing and feedback of PKINIT
support.
