Felix commented on JAMES-4108:
------------------------------
Hey Benoit,
I could reproduce this bug today with the current master
(b3b75b5b5343d8a3d838617addab3e9c3b40e5d4). I also didn't see any recent MRs
that could have fixed it.
This is not the Null Pointer Exception on empty initial response (fixed on
master) but a different, related bug.
I opened a MR on GitHub (https://github.com/apache/james-project/pull/2617)
that contains some test cases that should not fail (in my opinion). However,
two continuation test cases (`AUTH XOAUTH2` / `AUTH OAUTHBEARER`) fail locally
for me on the current master.
Best regards,
Felix

> Project: James Server
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SMTPServer
> Affects Versions: 3.9.0
> Reporter: Felix
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> I have set up a JAMES server with XOAUTH2.
> When I authenticate at the SMTP server with `AUTH XOAUTH2 <token>`,
> everything works fine.
> When I first send `AUTH XOAUTH2` (empty initial response), the server answers
> with `334` (as it should). I then send my token after that and the server
> responds `235 Authentication successful.`. But no matter what I send after
> that (it does not even have to be a valid command), the server responds
> alternately with
> 1. `334

> (own domain removed), decoded: `
> {"status":"invalid_token","scope":"email","schemes":"https://<domain>/auth/realms/<realm>/.well-known/openid-configuration"}
> ` and
> 2. `535 Authentication Failed`
> It seems like - although there was a successful authentication - the server
> seems to still be stuck in the XOAUTH2 authentication handler.
> I suspect that this is related to a recent bug (fixed in
> [https://github.com/apache/james-project/pull/2428]) where sending an empty
> initial response (only `AUTH XOAUTH2`) to the SMTP server resulted in a Null
> Pointer Exception.
> The IMAP server does not have these problems (no exception and no auth loop).
> Release 3.8.2 still has the null pointer exception (does not include the fix)
> but does not have the authentication loop (or it cannot be triggered because
> of the exception).

> - Clone and checkout

> (current master at time of writing)
> - Build project with `mvn clean install -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true
> -DskipTests`
> - Copy sample configuration from repo:

> - Remove imap servers in `imapserver.xml` (not relevant here)
> - Remove lmtp server in `lmtpserver.xml` (not relevant here)
> - Remove managesieve server in `managesieveserver.xml` (not relevant here)
> - Remove pop3 server in `pop3server.xml` (not relevant here)
> - Remove all smtp servers except the port 25 one in `smtpserver.xml` (the
> others are not relevant here)
> - Change port of smtp server from 25 to 2525 in `smtpserver.xml` (enables
> starting without evelated privileges)
> - Configure the auth section of the smtp server in `smtpserver.xml` (see
> below)
> - Remove `authorizedAddresses` from the `smtpserver.xml` (I want to showcase
> OIDC authentication here)
> - Change the log file from `/logs/james.log` to `./james.log` in
> `logback.xml`
> - Add domain that will be in the token as the default domain in
> `domainlist.xml`
> - Start server with `java -javaagent:james-server-jpa
