--- Begin Message ---Package: python-yubico-tools Version: 1.1.0-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, when using TOTP (time based), the PIN output by yubikey-totp depends on the timezone the tool is running in: kosh@cindy:~$ echo $TZ; yubikey-totp; TZ=UTC yubikey-totp; yubikey-totp Europe/Berlin 050816 934513 050816 (the first and last should be the same as the one in the middle) I think this is in violation of RFC6238. I suspect the cause can be seen in the output of --help, as the tool clearly doesn't calculate "seconds since the epoch" correctly: kosh@cindy:~$ echo $TZ; yubikey-totp --help; TZ=UTC yubikey-totp --help; yubikey-totp --help; date +%s Europe/Berlin usage: yubikey-totp [-h] [-v] [--debug] [--time TIME] [--step STEP] [--digits DIGITS] [--slot SLOT] Generate OATH TOTP codes using a YubiKey optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose Enable verbose operation (default: False) --debug Enable debug operation (default: False) --time TIME Time to use as number of seconds since epoch (default: 1437119455) --step STEP Time step in use (in seconds) (default: 30) --digits DIGITS Length of OTP in decimal digits (default: 6) --slot SLOT YubiKey slot configured for Challenge-Response (default: 2) usage: yubikey-totp [-h] [-v] [--debug] [--time TIME] [--step STEP] [--digits DIGITS] [--slot SLOT] Generate OATH TOTP codes using a YubiKey optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose Enable verbose operation (default: False) --debug Enable debug operation (default: False) --time TIME Time to use as number of seconds since epoch (default: 1437123055) --step STEP Time step in use (in seconds) (default: 30) --digits DIGITS Length of OTP in decimal digits (default: 6) --slot SLOT YubiKey slot configured for Challenge-Response (default: 2) usage: yubikey-totp [-h] [-v] [--debug] [--time TIME] [--step STEP] [--digits DIGITS] [--slot SLOT] Generate OATH TOTP codes using a YubiKey optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose Enable verbose operation (default: False) --debug Enable debug operation (default: False) --time TIME Time to use as number of seconds since epoch (default: 1437119455) --step STEP Time step in use (in seconds) (default: 30) --digits DIGITS Length of OTP in decimal digits (default: 6) --slot SLOT YubiKey slot configured for Challenge-Response (default: 2) 1437123055 The "default" for "number of seconds since epoch" in the description of the --time parameter clearly changes with TZ, which is wrong. Compare the output of "date +%s" which returns the same value "TZ=UTC yubikey-totp --help" returns. The fix is rather trivial: --- yubikey-totp.old 2012-06-08 14:21:39.000000000 +0200 +++ yubikey-totp 2015-07-17 11:06:39.265867405 +0200 @@ -41,7 +41,7 @@ import argparse default_slot=2 -default_time=int(time.mktime(time.gmtime())) +default_time=int(time.time()) default_step=30 default_digits=6 Cheers, Marc -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (255, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages python-yubico-tools depends on: ii libpython2.7-stdlib [python-argparse] 2.7.9-2 ii python 2.7.9-1 ii python-yubico 1.1.0-2 python-yubico-tools recommends no packages. python-yubico-tools suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
