Properties of user created in Legacy_UserManager padded with space upto 10
character
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CORE-4430
URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-4430
Project: Firebird Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: API / Client Library, Engine, GSEC, Security
Affects Versions: 3.0 Alpha 2
Environment: Firebird 3.0.0.31135-0_x64 on Windows 8.1 Update
Reporter: Mark Rotteveel
A test in Jaybird (org.firebirdsql.management.TestUserManager) adds a user
through the services API and then retrieves the created user to compare the
properties. When this test is run against Firebird 3.0 the username, firstname,
middlename and lastname properties are padded with spaces (0x20) up to a length
of 10 (no padding occurs if the actual value is longer). This only happens when
the usermanager is Legacy_UserManager. The properties are not padded when the
Srp manager is configured in firebird.conf. Padding also doesn't occur with
Firebird 2.5 and earlier.
I am not sure if the problem is with creating or with listing the users, but it
also occurs when the user has been created with a CREATE USER statement instead
of the service API.
Currently tests on Jaybird use Legacy_UserManager because it doesn't support
the new protocol yet.
Note: I have seen the behavior at least since 3.0 Alpha 2 (AFAIR it didn't
occur with Alpha 1, but I am not 100%sure), but I didn't have time to
investigate closely until today. I tested with the snapshot of today
(3.0.0.31135).
