The krb5_verify_user function verifies the password supplied by a user.
The principal whose password will be verified is specified in principal.
New tickets will be obtained as a side-effect and stored in ccache (if
NULL, the default ccache is used). krb5_verify_user() will call
krb5_cc_initialize() on the given ccache, so ccache must only initialized
with krb5_cc_resolve() or krb5_cc_gen_new(). If the password is not supplied
in password (and is given as NULL) the user will be prompted for
it. If secure the ticket will be verified against the locally stored
service key service (by default `host' if given as NULL ).
The krb5_verify_user_lrealm function does the same, except that it
ignores the realm in principal and tries all the local realms (see
krb5.conf(5)). After a successful return, the principal is set to the
authenticated realm. If the call fails, the principal will not be meaningful,
and should only be freed with krb5_free_principal(3).
krb5_verify_opt_init() resets all opt to default values.
None of the krb5_verify_opt_set function makes a copy of the data structure
that they are called with. Its up the caller to free them after the
krb5_verify_user_opt() is called.
krb5_verify_opt_set_ccache() sets the ccache that user of opt will use.
If not set, the default credential cache will be used.
krb5_verify_opt_set_keytab() sets the keytab that user of opt will use.
If not set, the default keytab will be used.
krb5_verify_opt_set_secure() if secure if true, the password verification
will require that the ticket will be verified against the locally stored
service key. If not set, default value is true.
krb5_verify_opt_set_service() sets the service principal that user of opt
will use. If not set, the `host' service will be used.
krb5_verify_opt_set_flags() sets flags that user of opt will use. If the
flag KRB5_VERIFY_LREALMS is used, the principal will be modified like
krb5_verify_user_lrealm() modifies it.
krb5_verify_user_opt() function verifies the password supplied by a user.
The principal whose password will be verified is specified in principal.
Options the to the verification process is pass in in opt.
Here is a example program that verifies a password. it uses the
`host/`hostname`' service principal in krb5.keytab.
#include <krb5.h>
int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char *user;
krb5_error_code error;
krb5_principal princ;
krb5_context context;
if (argc != 2)
errx(1, "usage: verify_passwd <principal-name>");
user = argv[1];
if (krb5_init_context(&context) < 0)
errx(1, "krb5_init_context");
if ((error = krb5_parse_name(context, user, &princ)) != 0)
krb5_err(context, 1, error, "krb5_parse_name");
error = krb5_verify_user(context, princ, NULL, NULL, TRUE, NULL);
if (error)
krb5_err(context, 1, error, "krb5_verify_user");
return 0;
