[Bug 423] New: Workaround for pw change in privsep mode (3.5.p1)
http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=423 Summary: Workaround for pw change in privsep mode (3.5.p1) Product: Portable OpenSSH Version: 3.5p1 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: sshd AssignedTo: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org ReportedBy: michael_steffens at hp.com The attached patch provides a workaround for changing expired passwords on login with sshd running in privsep mode. It does so by delegating the the change dialog to a suid helper program. (Yes, yet another one :) The patch incorporates the HP-UX trusted system patch by Dan Wanek, submitted with [BUG 419]. I have tested this patch successfully on Linux (Debian with libpam0g 0.72-32) HP-UX 11.00 and 11.11, both trusted and non-trusted mode Solaris 2.7 It seems to be even a bit more robust than the builtin change routine for non-privsep mode, which crashes on trusted systems when using the dialog options for random generated passwords. (No idea why, unfortunately) The ssh-chauthtok-helper passed them flawlessly. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
