Kerbrute : An Script To Perform Kerberos Bruteforcing By Using Impacket

Kerbrute is a script to perform kerberos bruteforcing by using the Impacket library.

When is executed, as input it receives a user or list of users and a password or list of password. Then is performs a brute-force attack to enumerate:

Valid username/passwords pairs
Valid usernames
Usernames without pre-authentication required

As a result, the script generates a list of valid credentials discovered, and the TGT’s generated due those valid credentials.
