>Description:
When we not used separation privilege, and we do a connection with a username that aren't known, sshd segfault
We use PAM, but I don't think that problem is linked on, because when we see my solution to fix this crash, PAM have no impact.
pid 2029 (sshd), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
>How-To-Repeat:
Put this option on sshd_config file
ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes
PasswordAuthentication no
PermitEmptyPasswords no
PermitRootLogin yes
UsePrivilegeSeparation no
connect on sshd with an unknwon username
>Fix:
in file /usr/src/crypto/openssh/auth.c
in function fakepw(void)
replace the 2 lines :
fake.pw_uid = privsep_pw->pw_uid;
fake.pw_gid = privsep_pw->pw_gid;
by :
if (use_privsep && (privsep_pw != NULL))
{
fake.pw_uid = privsep_pw->pw_uid;
fake.pw_gid = privsep_pw->pw_gid;
}
else
{
fake.pw_uid = (uid_t)-1;
fake.pw_gid = (gid_t)-1;
}
