similar to: [PATCH] PermitRootLogin woes

I have "PermitRootLogin no" in my sshd_config, but under Tru64 and SIA, the root login attempts still get passed to the SIA system (so I get lots of warnings about failed root logins). On systems with a "max failed attempts" setting, the root account can be locked out this way. I started looking at the code, and I'm not sure I understand what I see. In auth-passwd.c,

Hi All, While testing another patch, I found that I could not longer log in as root, even if PermitRootLogin was yes. It seems to be the following code in auth_password: $ cvs diff -r1.48 -r1.49 auth-passwd.c [snip] #ifndef HAVE_CYGWIN - if (pw->pw_uid == 0 && options.permit_root_login != PERMIT_YES) + if (pw->pw_uid == 0 && options.permit_root_login !=

I have found the following patches to be desirable for using sshd on a Tru64 UNIX system with the Kerberos 5 SIA module (libsia_krb5.so) from Heimdal. These patches do the following: 1) preserve context between the password authentication and the session setup phases. This is necessary because the Heimdal SIA module stores Kerberos context information as mechanism-specific data in

Hi All. There have recently (well, today :-) been changes to OpenSSH Portable's auth-passwd.c from OpenBSD to accomodate forced changes of expired passwords. (Rabid password expirers shoulon't get excited yet, it's currently bsdauth only, but support for other platforms should start trickling in shortly). As part of that, some individual platforms have gained their own

Well, I had just finally gotten around to downloading a snapshot to test the latest on Tru64 a couple of days ago but hadn't had a chance to build it yet, and 3.7p1 has now been released. Sigh. The problem is that Tru64 setreuid() and setregid() are broken, so privsep doesn't work. This could also be a security problem for SIA authentication in general (any version of OpenSSH on Tru64,

A while back, I sent in a patch that added Digital Unix SIA authentication to OpenSSH. Well, I just figured out that it didn't handle everything correctly (locked accounts could still log in). I thought I had checked that, but I guess I missed it. Anyway, here is a patch against OpenSSH 2.2.0p1 that fixes this. -- Chris Adams <cmadams at hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator

Hi All. OpenSSH 4.1 will be released in the next couple of weeks and we invite interested parties to test a snapshot. The changes since 4.0 are mostly bugfixes, for a detailed list see http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=994 Running the regression tests supplied with Portable does not require installation and is a simply: $ ./configure && make tests Testing on suitable

What do we loose by not having post-auth privsep? What code is executed between authorization and actual setting of the effective uid?

Dear list, since the order of authentication and AFS token/KRB TGT forwarding changed (around 3.0), we have had problems with users accidentally overwriting their credentials from a "password" login with forwarded credentials. E.g. user A logs in as user B, but stays with the AFS permissions of user A. A workaround is to use "-k" on these sessions, but "it worked without

Hi, as it turned out on the Cygwin mailing list, the special handling of empty password in auth-passwd.c when running under Windows NT results in problems. Cause: The authentication methode "none" calls auth_password() with an empty password. A piece of HAVE_CYGWIN code allows empty passwords even if PermitEmptyPasswords is set to "no". This in turn results in calling

Is anyone maintaining the OSF_SIA support in openssh? This seems to be an obvious bug triggered if you try to connect as a non-existant user. >From auth1.c line 459 #elif defined(HAVE_OSF_SIA) (sia_validate_user(NULL, saved_argc, saved_argv, get_canonical_hostname(), pw->pw_name, NULL, 0, NULL, "") == SIASUCCESS)) { #else /*

Hi All. Attached is a patch against OpenBSD, based in part on the owl-always-auth patch. The idea is that the only way out of auth_passwd for the failure case is the "return 0" at the bottom. I don't know if this is a good way to do it or not, it's presented for discussion. Also, I don't think 3.6.1p2 is quite right WRT these timing issues (eg, you get a fast failure

Hello. The following is a patch against OpenSSH 3.0.2p1 to fix OpenSSH's handling of Tru64 SIA authentication. The main changes are to make the SIAENTITY a global variable (so that it remains persistent across function calls), initialization only happens once, the session is only released once. This makes SIA modules that require authentication in order to perform certain actions during the

I think I'm ready with the SIA (Security Integration Architecture) patches for Tru64 UNIX. All of the code was written by Tom Woodburn, an engineer at Compaq. I've only performed integration and testing of the patches with more help from Tom. Tom's original patches were included in the "other" ssh. We'd both like to see SIA support get into OpenSSH. SIA provides PAM-like

Here is a long-overdue (sorry about that) patch for Tru64. It is pretty minor mostly (minor formatting and removal of a couple of unneeded calls), and it disables post-auth privsep (so that OpenSSH will work "out of the box" on Tru64, avoiding the many questions). I'm also looking at getting setproctitle working. For Tru64 4.x, it isn't a big deal (normal PS_USE_CLOBBER_ARGV

I am enclosing a context diff of the changes that I made to get openssh working on UWIN. UWIN is a UNIX operating system layer that runs on Win32 systems. For more information on UWIN go to http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/uwin/. I also ran configure using -with-cppflags=-D_BSDCOMP=2. I don't know where that information would go with the source code. Let me know if you need more

Hi All. First the questions: Is there anything objectionable in this patch? Is AUDIT_FAIL_AUTH appropriate for the "Reason" field? Now the details: attached is a patch that changes some of the #includes for AIX. It moves the AIX-specific includes to port-aix.h and adds includes that contain the prototypes for many of the authentication functions. The idea isto fix some warnings.
