* Cookie Expires date should be locale insensitiveJohn Dennis2012-12-201-6/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Expires attribute in a cookie is supposed to follow the RFC 822 (superseded by RFC 1123) date format. That format includes a weekday abbreviation (e.g. Tue) which must be in English according to the RFC's. ipapython/cookie.py has methods to parse and format the Expires attribute but they were based on strptime() and strftime() which respects the locale. If a non-English locale is in effect the wrong date string will be produced and/or it won't be able to parse the date string. The fix is to use the date parsing and formatting functions from email.utils which specifically follow the RFC's and are not locale sensitive. This patch also updates the unit test to use email.utils as well. The patch should be applied to the following branches: Ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3313
* Compliant client side session cookie behaviorJohn Dennis2012-12-101-0/+475
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In summary this patch does: * Follow the defined rules for cookies when: - receiving a cookie (process the attributes) - storing a cookie (store cookie + attributes) - sending a cookie + validate the cookie domain against the request URL + validate the cookie path against the request URL + validate the cookie expiration + if valid then send only the cookie, no attribtues * Modifies how a request URL is stored during a XMLRPC request/response sequence. * Refactors a bit of the request/response logic to allow for making the decision whether to send a session cookie instead of full Kerberous auth easier. * The server now includes expiration information in the session cookie it sends to the client. The server always had the information available to prevent using an expired session cookie. Now that expiration timestamp is returned to the client as well and now the client will not send an expired session cookie back to the server. * Adds a new module and unit test for cookies (see below) Formerly we were always returning the session cookie no matter what the domain or path was in the URL. We were also sending the cookie attributes which are for the client only (used to determine if to return a cookie). The attributes are not meant to be sent to the server and the previous behavior was a protocol violation. We also were not checking the cookie expiration. Cookie library issues: We need a library to create, parse, manipulate and format cookies both in a client context and a server context. Core Python has two cookie libraries, Cookie.py and cookielib.py. Why did we add a new cookie module instead of using either of these two core Python libaries? Cookie.py is designed for server side generation but can be used to parse cookies on the client. It's the library we were using in the server. However when I tried to use it in the client I discovered it has some serious bugs. There are 7 defined cookie elements, it fails to correctly parse 3 of the 7 elements which makes it unusable because we depend on those elements. Since Cookie.py was designed for server side cookie processing it's not hard to understand how fails to correctly parse a cookie because that's a client side need. (Cookie.py also has an awkward baroque API and is missing some useful functionality we would have to build on top of it). cookielib.py is designed for client side. It's fully featured and obeys all the RFC's. It would be great to use however it's tightly coupled with another core library, urllib2.py. The http request and response objects must be urllib2 objects. But we don't use urllib2, rather we use httplib because xmlrpclib uses httplib. I don't see a reason why a cookie library should be so tightly coupled to a protocol library, but it is and that means we can't use it (I tried to just pick some isolated entrypoints for our use but I kept hitting interaction/dependency problems). I decided to solve the cookie library problems by writing a minimal cookie library that does what we need and no more than that. It is a new module in ipapython shared by both client and server and comes with a new unit test. The module has plenty of documentation, no need to repeat it here. Request URL issues: We also had problems in rpc.py whereby information from the request which is needed when we process the response is not available. Most important was the requesting URL. It turns out that the way the class and object relationships are structured it's impossible to get this information. Someone else must have run into the same issue because there was a routine called reconstruct_url() which attempted to recreate the request URL from other available information. Unfortunately reconstruct_url() was not callable from inside the response handler. So I decided to store the information in the thread context and when the request is received extract it from the thread context. It's perhaps not an ideal solution but we do similar things elsewhere so at least it's consistent. I removed the reconstruct_url() function because the exact information is now in the context and trying to apply heuristics to recreate the url is probably not robust.

* Use OpenSSH-style public keys as the preferred format of SSH public keys.Jan Cholasta2012-09-061-0/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Public keys in the old format (raw RFC 4253 blob) are automatically converted to OpenSSH-style public keys. OpenSSH-style public keys are now stored in LDAP. Changed sshpubkeyfp to be an output parameter, as that is what it actually is. Allow parameter normalizers to be used on values of any type, not just unicode, so that public key blobs (which are str) can be normalized to OpenSSH-style public keys. ticket 2932, 2935
* Ticket #3008: DN objects hash differently depending on caseJohn Dennis2012-08-221-15/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because the attrs & values in DN's, RDN's and AVA's are comparison case- insensitive the hash value between two objects which compare as equal but differ in case must also yield the same hash value. This is critical when these objects are used as a dict key or in a set because dicts and sets use the object's __hash__ value in conjunction with the objects __eq__ method to lookup the object. The defect is the DN, RDN & AVA objects computed their hash from the case- preserving string representation thus two otherwise equal objects incorrectly yielded different hash values. The problem manifests itself when one of these objects is used as a key in a dict, for example a dn. dn1 = DN(('cn', 'Bob')) dn2 = DN(('cn', 'bob')) dn1 == dn2 --> True hash(dn1) == hash(dn2) --> False d = {} d[dn1] = x d[dn2] = y len(d) --> 2 The patch fixes the above by lower casing the string representation of the object prior to computing it's hash. The patch also corrects a spelling mistake and a bogus return value in ldapupdate.py which happened to be discovered while researching this bug.
* Use DN objects instead of stringsJohn Dennis2012-08-121-0/+1937

This is implmented via ipautil.dn_attribute_property(). The only permitted types for a class attribute specified to be a DN are either None or a DN object. * Require that every place a dn is used it must be a DN object. This translates into lot of:: assert isinstance(dn, DN) sprinkled through out the code. Maintaining these asserts is valuable to preserve DN type enforcement. The asserts can be disabled in production. The goal of 100% DN usage 100% of the time has been realized, these asserts are meant to preserve that. The asserts also proved valuable in detecting functions which did not obey their function signatures, such as the baseldap pre and post callbacks. * Moved ipalib.dn to ipapython.dn because DN class is shared with all components, not just the server which uses ipalib. * All API's now accept DN's natively, no need to convert to str (or unicode). * Removed ipalib.encoder and encode/decode decorators. Type conversion is now explicitly performed in each IPASimpleLDAPObject method which emulates a ldap.SimpleLDAPObject method. * Entity & Entry classes now utilize DN's * Removed __getattr__ in Entity & Entity clases. There were two problems with it. It presented synthetic Python object attributes based on the current LDAP data it contained. There is no way to validate synthetic attributes using code checkers, you can't search the code to find LDAP attribute accesses (because synthetic attriutes look like Python attributes instead of LDAP data) and error handling is circumscribed. Secondly __getattr__ was hiding Python internal methods which broke class semantics. * Replace use of methods inherited from ldap.SimpleLDAPObject via IPAdmin class with IPAdmin methods. Directly using inherited methods was causing us to bypass IPA logic. Mostly this meant replacing the use of search_s() with getEntry() or getList(). Similarly direct access of the LDAP data in classes using IPAdmin were replaced with calls to getValue() or getValues(). * Objects returned by ldap2.find_entries() are now compatible with either the python-ldap access methodology or the Entity/Entry access methodology. * All ldap operations now funnel through the common IPASimpleLDAPObject giving us a single location where we interface to python-ldap and perform conversions. * The above 4 modifications means we've greatly reduced the proliferation of multiple inconsistent ways to perform LDAP operations. We are well on the way to having a single API in IPA for doing LDAP (a long range goal). * All certificate subject bases are now DN's * DN objects were enhanced thusly: - find, rfind, index, rindex, replace and insert methods were added - AVA, RDN and DN classes were refactored in immutable and mutable variants, the mutable variants are EditableAVA, EditableRDN and EditableDN. By default we use the immutable variants preserving important semantics. To edit a DN cast it to an EditableDN and cast it back to DN when done editing. These issues are fully described in other documentation. - first_key_match was removed - DN equalty comparison permits comparison to a basestring * Fixed ldapupdate to work with DN's. This work included: - Enhance test_updates.py to do more checking after applying update. Add test for update_from_dict(). Convert code to use unittest classes. - Consolidated duplicate code. - Moved code which should have been in the class into the class. - Fix the handling of the 'deleteentry' update action. It's no longer necessary to supply fake attributes to make it work. Detect case where subsequent update applies a change to entry previously marked for deletetion. General clean-up and simplification of the 'deleteentry' logic. - Rewrote a couple of functions to be clearer and more Pythonic. - Added documentation on the data structure being used. - Simplfy the use of update_from_dict() * Removed all usage of get_schema() which was being called prior to accessing the .schema attribute of an object. If a class is using internal lazy loading as an optimization it's not right to require users of the interface to be aware of internal optimization's. schema is now a property and when the schema property is accessed it calls a private internal method to perform the lazy loading. * Added SchemaCache class to cache the schema's from individual servers. This was done because of the observation we talk to different LDAP servers, each of which may have it's own schema. Previously we globally cached the schema from the first server we connected to and returned that schema in all contexts. The cache includes controls to invalidate it thus forcing a schema refresh. * Schema caching is now senstive to the run time context. During install and upgrade the schema can change leading to errors due to out-of-date cached schema. The schema cache is refreshed in these contexts. * We are aware of the LDAP syntax of all LDAP attributes. Every attribute returned from an LDAP operation is passed through a central table look-up based on it's LDAP syntax. The table key is the LDAP syntax it's value is a Python callable that returns a Python object matching the LDAP syntax. There are a handful of LDAP attributes whose syntax is historically incorrect (e.g. DistguishedNames that are defined as DirectoryStrings). The table driven conversion mechanism is augmented with a table of hard coded exceptions. Currently only the following conversions occur via the table: - dn's are converted to DN objects - binary objects are converted to Python str objects (IPA convention). - everything else is converted to unicode using UTF-8 decoding (IPA convention). However, now that the table driven conversion mechanism is in place it would be trivial to do things such as converting attributes which have LDAP integer syntax into a Python integer, etc. * Expected values in the unit tests which are a DN no longer need to use lambda expressions to promote the returned value to a DN for equality comparison. The return value is automatically promoted to a DN. The lambda expressions have been removed making the code much simpler and easier to read. * Add class level logging to a number of classes which did not support logging, less need for use of root_logger. * Remove ipaserver/conn.py, it was unused. * Consolidated duplicate code wherever it was found. * Fixed many places that used string concatenation to form a new string rather than string formatting operators. This is necessary because string formatting converts it's arguments to a string prior to building the result string. You can't concatenate a string and a non-string. * Simplify logic in rename_managed plugin. Use DN operators to edit dn's. * The live version of ipa-ldap-updater did not generate a log file. The offline version did, now both do. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1670 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1671 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1672 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1673 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1674 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1392 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2872
* Store session cookie in ccache for cli usersRob Crittenden2012-06-141-0/+147
| | | | | | | | | Try to use the URI /ipa/session/xml if there is a key in the kernel keyring. If there is no cookie or it turns out to be invalid (expired, whatever) then use the standard URI /ipa/xml. This in turn will create a session that the user can then use later. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2331
