Hi, In function svcauth_gss_accept() (net/sunrpc/auth_gss/svcauth_gss.c) the code that handles GSS integrity and decryption failures should be returning GARBAGE_ARGS as specified in RFC 2203. Is there a reason why this is not the case? If not, here's a patch.
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2203.txt ---------------------------------------------------------- 5.3.3.4.2. GSS_VerifyMIC() Failure When GSS_VerifyMIC() is called to verify the verifier in request, a failure results in an RPC response with a reply status of MSG_DENIED, reject status of AUTH_ERROR and an auth status of RPCSEC_GSS_CREDPROBLEM. When GSS_VerifyMIC() is called to verify the call arguments (service is rpc_gss_svc_integrity), a failure results in an RPC response with a reply status of MSG_ACCEPTED, and an acceptance status of GARBAGE_ARGS. 5.3.3.4.3. GSS_Unwrap() Failure When GSS_Unwrap() is called to decrypt the call arguments (service is rpc_gss_svc_privacy), a failure results in an RPC response with a reply status of MSG_ACCEPTED, and an acceptance status of GARBAGE_ARGS. ---------------------------------------------------------- This patch is against: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6 Reviewed-by: Greg Banks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Signed-off-by: Harshula Jayasuriya <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- net/sunrpc/auth_gss/svcauth_gss.c | 9 +++++++-- net/sunrpc/svc.c | 3 +-- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) --- a/net/sunrpc/auth_gss/svcauth_gss.c +++ b/net/sunrpc/auth_gss/svcauth_gss.c @@ -1146,7 +1146,7 @@ svcauth_gss_accept(struct svc_rqst *rqstp, __be32 *authp) case RPC_GSS_SVC_INTEGRITY: if (unwrap_integ_data(&rqstp->rq_arg, gc->gc_seq, rsci->mechctx)) - goto auth_err; + goto garbage_args; /* placeholders for length and seq. number: */ svc_putnl(resv, 0); svc_putnl(resv, 0); @@ -1154,7 +1154,7 @@ svcauth_gss_accept(struct svc_rqst *rqstp, __be32 *authp) case RPC_GSS_SVC_PRIVACY: if (unwrap_priv_data(rqstp, &rqstp->rq_arg, gc->gc_seq, rsci->mechctx)) - goto auth_err; + goto garbage_args; /* placeholders for length and seq. number: */ svc_putnl(resv, 0); svc_putnl(resv, 0); @@ -1169,6 +1169,11 @@ svcauth_gss_accept(struct svc_rqst *rqstp, __be32 *authp) ret = SVC_OK; goto out; } +garbage_args: + /* Restore write pointer to its original value: */ + xdr_ressize_check(rqstp, reject_stat); + ret = SVC_GARBAGE; + goto out; auth_err: /* Restore write pointer to its original value: */ xdr_ressize_check(rqstp, reject_stat); diff --git a/net/sunrpc/svc.c b/net/sunrpc/svc.c index a290e15..a6c74fe 100644 --- a/net/sunrpc/svc.c +++ b/net/sunrpc/svc.c @@ -915,8 +915,7 @@ svc_process(struct svc_rqst *rqstp) case SVC_OK: break; case SVC_GARBAGE: - rpc_stat = rpc_garbage_args; - goto err_bad; + goto err_garbage; case SVC_SYSERR: rpc_stat = rpc_system_err; goto err_bad; cya, # - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
