Martin Ritchie updated QPID-474:
--------------------------------

          Component/s: Java Broker
             Priority: Critical  (was: Major)
          Description: 

This is a snippet from the evaluateResponse method in AmqPlainSaslServer:

            String pwd = new String(response, authcidNullPosition + 1, 
passwordLen, "utf8");
            passwordCb.setPassword(pwd.toCharArray());
            AuthorizeCallback authzCb = new AuthorizeCallback(authzid, authzid);
            Callback[] callbacks = new Callback[]{nameCb, passwordCb, authzCb};
            _cbh.handle(callbacks);
            _complete = true;

The authzCb is always set to true!!

See the handler UsernamePasswordInitialiser
             else if (callback instanceof AuthorizeCallback) {
                    ((AuthorizeCallback) callback).setAuthorized(true);


As a result this will always allow access. 
(from AmqPlainSaslServer.evaluteResponse() .. follows on from above snippet)

            if (authzCb.isAuthorized())
            {
                _authorizationId = authzCb.getAuthenticationID();
                return null;
            }
            else
            {
                throw new SaslException("Authentication failed");
            }


What needs to be done:

This line is wrong: (from AmqPlainSaslServer)
            passwordCb.setPassword(pwd.toCharArray());

This is done in the PrincipalDatabases

So after the handle call

passwordCb.getPassword() should be compared to pwd verifying the password is 
correct.
