Subject: [PATCH] login: use original FQDN for PAM_RHOST
|
|
|
|
When login -h <remotehost> is invoked, init_remote_info() strips the
|
|
local domain suffix from the hostname (FQDN to short name) before
|
|
storing it in cxt->hostname. This truncated value is then used for
|
|
PAM_RHOST, which can bypass pam_access host deny rules that match on
|
|
the FQDN.
|
|
|
|
Preserve the original -h hostname in a new cmd_hostname field and use
|
|
it for PAM_RHOST, while keeping the truncated hostname for utmp/wtmp
|
|
and logging unchanged.
|
|
|
|
Note, the real-world impact is low -- login -h is only used by legacy
|
|
telnet/rlogin daemons, and exploitation requires FQDN-specific
|
|
pam_access rules on a system still using these obsolete services.
