+Notes, Major Changes, and Known Bugs for 1.2.6
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Notes:
+
+* This release includes a significant security patch. If you are
+ running an earlier release, you are highly encouraged to update, as
+ it is theoretically possible for an intruder to compromise your
+ KDC.
+
+Major Changes:
+
+* The security vulnerability in xdr_array() [MITKRB5-SA-2002-001] has
+ been patched. Thanks to Jeffrey Hutzelman and Nikolai Zeldovich.
+
+* A NULL pointer dereference in kadmind has been fixed
+ [krb5-admin/1140]. Thanks to Mark Levinson.
+
+* There was a botched buffer overflow patch in kadmind4 that caused
+ problems with kadmind4 acl handling. It has been fixed. Thanks to
+ Mark Silis.
+
+* Correct ETYPE_INFO padata are now generated. Thanks to Lubos
+ Kejzlar.
+
+* A bug in AFS salt handling has been worked
+ around. [krb5-clients/1146] Thanks to Wolfgang Friebel.
+
+* The KDC, in handling both krb5 and krb4 TGS_REQs, now honors the
+ DISALLOW_ALL_TIX and DISALLOW_SVR attributes on the server
+ principal. This also now happens with krb524d.
+
+* The dump command in kdb5_util now handles master key conversion
+ without crashing.
+
+Known Bugs:
+
+* Most of the other known bugs noted in earlier 1.2.x releases (other
+ than those listed as fixed above) are still present.
