  segfault in accounts-daemon when logging in / gdm crash if user

  [Impact]
  libaccountsservice contains a double free which under certain circumstances 
will cause accounts-daemon to segfault, and under other circumstances will 
cause gdm to segfault when a user account is added or removed.

  [Test case]
  In a precise machine with kerberos authentication, adding a new user via 
sudo adduser test will cause an X session running under GDM to crash with a 
segfault.

  Once the patch is applied, running the same command line should not
  affect a running X session.  For the test to have value, the session
  needs to have been started after the new accountsservice packages were
  installed.

  [Possible regressions]
  This is just one line removing a double free that has been applied upstream 
for 16 months, so the code itself should be fine.  To be certain that 
everything is alright, not only gdm but also lightdm should be tested.

I don't think this is correct. The fixed package is still in
precise-proposed and hasn't been released to precise-updates yet, so
the status should still be Fix Committed. The status will be changed
automatically once the package migrates to precise-updates.

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1004515] Re: segfault in accounts-daemon when logging in / gdm crash if user account is added or deleted

2013-11-27 Thread Ryan Tandy
I reported bug #1255356 separately and discovered the same double free
as the cause. I have verified that accountsservice from precise-proposed
fixes the bug reported by Wookey and fixes the bug I reported as well.

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1004515] Re: segfault in accounts-daemon when logging in / gdm crash if user account is added or deleted

2013-10-08 Thread Chris Halse Rogers
Hello Wookey, or anyone else affected,

Accepted accountsservice into precise-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/0.6.15-2ubuntu9.7 in
a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  segfault in accounts-daemon when logging in / gdm crash if user
  account is added or deleted

Status in “accountsservice” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “accountsservice” source package in Precise:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  libaccountsservice contains a double free which under certain circumstances 
will cause accounts-daemon to segfault, and under other circumstances will 
cause gdm to segfault when a user account is added or removed.

  [Test case]
  In a precise machine with kerberos authentication, adding a new user via 
sudo adduser test will cause an X session running under GDM to crash with a 
segfault.

  Once the patch is applied, running the same command line should not
  affect a running X session.  For the test to have value, the session
  needs to have been started after the new accountsservice packages were
  installed.

  [Possible regressions]
  This is just one line removing a double free that has been applied upstream 
for 16 months, so the code itself should be fine.  To be certain that 
everything is alright, not only gdm but also lightdm should be tested.

  [Original description]
  I noticed this in my logs. It's not obviously broken anything, but segfaults 
are bad so I thought it worth reporting.
