+Subject: [PATCH] Return only new keys in randkey [CVE-2014-5351]
+
+In kadmind's randkey operation, if a client specifies the keepold
+flag, do not include the preserved old keys in the response.
+
+CVE-2014-5351:
+
+An authenticated remote attacker can retrieve the current keys for a
+service principal when generating a new set of keys for that
+principal.  The attacker needs to be authenticated as a user who has
+the elevated privilege for randomizing the keys of other principals.
+
+Normally, when a Kerberos administrator randomizes the keys of a
+service principal, kadmind returns only the new keys.  This prevents
+an administrator who lacks legitimate privileged access to a service
+from forging tickets to authenticate to that service.  If the
+"keepold" flag to the kadmin randkey RPC operation is true, kadmind
+retains the old keys in the KDC database as intended, but also
+unexpectedly returns the old keys to the client, which exposes the
+service to ticket forgery attacks from the administrator.
+
+A mitigating factor is that legitimate clients of the affected service
+will start failing to authenticate to the service once they begin to
+receive service tickets encrypted in the new keys.  The affected
+service will be unable to decrypt the newly issued tickets, possibly
+alerting the legitimate administrator of the affected service.
