Re: sshd permits logon using disabled user?
> I think refusing an account manually and deliberately disabled by an > admin makes lots of sense. Why is this even a discussion? You *ALWAYS* refuse a login to an account that is disabled, locked out, or has an expired password or failed any of the other criteria that might be in effect (day/time restrictions, source IP restrictions, etc.) Is someone suggesting that the Windows authentication API is actually returning a success code despite any of these conditions? Furthermore you also *NEVER* hint to the user why the login was denied. It's rule #1 of security engineering. Denied is denied. Explanations or hints are verboten. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Flask app no longer working from cygwin when set to developer mode
This problem occurred immediately after attempting to run my python flask app in the backround (i.e $python app.py &) It gave me the following error: 2 [main] python3.6m 11340 child_info_fork::abort: unable to remap _lbfgsb.cpython-36m-x86_64-cygwin.dll to same address as parent (0x493) - try running rebaseall I've tried rebasing and restarting, but both didn't fix anything.

This is correct. >From a Windows perspective, "disabled" (UF_ACCOUNTDISABLE) means "account cannot be used to log on," and "locked out" (UF_LOCKOUT) means "there were too many bad password attempts, so the account is locked and cannot be used to log on at this time." The administrator can specify whether the UF_LOCKOUT duration is indefinite (this is usually not recommended, because this can be used for DoS) or not. Only an administrator (or a user with appropriate permissions) can set or clear UF_ACCOUNTDISABLE. It is used to prevent _any_ use of the account. UF_LOCKOUT is _only_ set by bad password attempts (the number of bad attempts is set by policy) and is not really intended to be used for any other purpose. UF_LOCKOUT can be cleared by an administrator (or user with appropriate permissions), or the system can clear it automatically after some duration (specified by policy), or it can be indefinite (although, as previously noted, this is not usually recommended). If you want to have an account that does not require a password, there is a separate flag for that - PASSWD_NOTREQD - although setting this may be prohibited by policy. So basically Corinna's idea is correct: If UF_ACCOUNTDISABLE or UF_LOCKOUT are set, the account should not allow logon.

The methods listed above, well, at least the "brute force" one, would work for intentionally creating an account that is locked out, but not disabled - as a good guy admin. And the reason for doing so would be the same as running "passwd -l username" on Linux - You don't want your users to log in with a password, because you consider that too insecure - instead, you want them to use the (hopefully passphrase-protected) SSH key file.

Being disabled and being locked out are two different flags, so this can be recognized from each other. A disabled account is a an account which is explicitely disabled in the user DB. A locked out account in Windows is to my understanding an account which has unsuccessfully tried to login multiple times so the account is locked for security reasons, until an admin unlocks it. Right now, with the patch I just pushed, both types, explicitely disabled or locked out" are refused. I think refusing an account manually and deliberately disabled by an admin makes lots of sense. I'm not so sure about locked out accounts. THis might need some discussion. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Cygwin Maintainer signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I would like to point out that on Linux, you can disable an account's password ("password -l username" / "usermod -L username"), and still log in using an SSH key pair. This is intentional and different to disabling an account entirely ("usermod -e 1 username" combined with the above).

sshd permits logon using disabled user?
I am running Windows 10 (1803) and experimenting with sshd installed as a Windows service. The computer is a domain member. I created a local computer account for testing. I created host keys and a public/private key pair to use to log on the user. This works, except I notice that if I disable the Windows user account, I can still log on using ssh using that account. In the shell, logged on as the disabled user, the 'whoami' command returns the name of the disabled user. This seems unexpected and not good. Why does sshd allow logon for a disabled user?
