[OpenIndiana-discuss] OI updates

2015-05-04 Thread Jon Tibble

I've just pushed a collection of illumos-gate CVE fixes for a9.
This covers:
- 5378 CVE-2014-3158 ppp: integer overflow in option parsing
- 5480 CVE-2012-3165 mailx(1) buffer overflow vulnerability
- 5481 CVE-2012-1750 mailx(1) tilde expansion vulnerability
- 5853 pfexec_call() error handling could be improved
  5854 pfexecd should initialize pfexec response buffers
  (Not sure what CVE this actually was assigned.)

I've also pushed the NVIDIA driver update to 304.125 and the missing 
pieces of the Delphix vmxnet3s driver patchset.


The new packages are:
SUNWcs@0.5.11,5.11-0.151.1.9:20150504T114725Z
system/network/ppp@0.5.11,5.11-0.151.1.9:20150504T120317Z
consolidation/nvidia/nvidia-incorporation@0.5.11,5.11-0.151.1.9:20150504T113748Z
driver/graphics/nvidia@0.304.125,5.11-0.151.1.9:20150504T113958Z
driver/network/vmxnet3s@0.5.11,5.11-0.151.1.9:20150504T114139Z

For those interested in an up to date OI branded illumos-gate, I've 
finished getting the OI patches done so anyone wishing to work with that 
can grab it here: https://github.com/OpenIndiana/illumos-gate


That should build fine with GCC on hipster.  If you build it with Studio 
on a9 you'll get a warning about clog 
(https://www.illumos.org/issues/5353) and warnings about pointers that 
can be fixed with 
https://paste.ec/paste/sDXMLQXR#DnPbnxkm9tFNmX0WxH1rWdV6CjIpGRmcKwfP2HOCgFE


I've deliberately left out any broadcom patches that we had as there 
seems to be a mishmash of patches around from various sources and it's 
better for everyone if people look and work against upstream illumos-gate.


Regards,
Jon

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Fwd: [discuss] IPv6 bogus Router Advertisements and Illumos 5729

2015-03-28 Thread Jon Tibble


 Forwarded Message 
Subject: [discuss] IPv6 bogus Router Advertisements and Illumos 5729
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2015 14:51:26 -0400
From: Dan McDonald dan...@omniti.com
Reply-To: disc...@lists.illumos.org
To: Dan McDonald dan...@omniti.com

Hello folks!

This is being sent to the illumos developers' list, the illumos 
discussion list, and the OmniOS discussion list.  I'd appreciate if 
folks from other distros please forward this to your appropriate distro 
mailing list(s).  This mail assumes a mild working knowledge of IPv6 and 
of the illumos kernel's internal structures.  If you have questions, 
feel free to contact me.  The bottom line is we have nothing to worry 
about!  The rest of this note explains why.


Recently, I pushed this seemingly innocuous fix into illumos-gate:

commit a36f6bde69ea4d4ea2b0a475ce962b9c1c4ef323
Author: Dan McDonald dan...@omniti.com
Date:   Thu Mar 19 19:04:20 2015 -0400

5729 in.ndpd should log broken RAs
Reviewed by: Robert Mustacchi r...@joyent.com
Approved by: Gordon Ross gordon.w.r...@gmail.com

I did so in response to a no-longer-embargoed request from CERT.  The 
problem behavior manifests with a malicious on-link IPv6 attacker who 
can theoretically cause nodes to lower their default IPv6 hop limit 
(like IPv4's TTL) to a small enough amount where IPv6 packets get 
dropped before they reach their destinations.


This attack does not affect illumos, nor has it ever since its 2010 
inception.  This is due to our unusual STORAGE of IPv6 Router 
Advertisement hop limits, vs. where we actually set these defaults.


Our in.ndpd code sends a SIOCLIFLNKINFO ioctl to the kernel in response 
to a changed hop limit via a Router Advertisement.  Fortunately, our 
kernel stores this information in an ill_t's ill_max_hops.  To see 
these, per-interface, utter this as root on your system's global zone:


  echo ::walk ill | ::print ill_t ill_name ill_isv6 ill_max_hops | mdb -k

The default value is 0, meaning use a system default.  The good news 
is, the value is NEVER USED BY THE REST OF THE IPv6 STACK.  IPv6 instead 
always sets the hopcount for locally-originated, non-reflective, packets 
to whatever these ndd(1M) variables are set, per netstack:


ndd -get /dev/{tcp,udp,icmp} {tcp,udp,icmp}_ipv6_hoplimit

You can use the above mdb(1) walker to see if one of your subnets has 
been subject to lower IPv6 hoplimits via Router Advertisements.  An RA 
message with that field set to 0 means don't change, and that's what 
usually is sent.  If it's set to any other of 1-255, the ill_max_hops 
field will reflect the most recent receipt of this.  If you have 
multiple nics on multiple subnets (zoned or non-zoned) you may see 
varying values.


Apparently some other platforms act on RA hop limits more aggressively 
than illumos does.  They are fixing this problem.  Starting with the fix 
for 5729, we are more vocal about seeing such RA hop limits, and have 
mdb -p `pgrep in.ndpd` tunable globals to help sysadmins detect such 
oddness.


I will now quote from CERT:

--
Essentially, RFC 3756 https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3756.txt Section 4.4 
lists some possible attacks that can be done regarding router discovery 
operations in IPv6. The reporter's attack appears to be a variant of 
these already well-known attacks. This fake RA attack in IPv6 has been 
compared to ARP poisoning in IPv4. In other words, this is a known 
problem due to rogue nodes on an internal network, and likely not a 
severe software vulnerability as originally thought. CERT/CC thanks 
vendors that helped provide this analysis.


Furthermore, this information was also submitted by the reporter to 
several public mailing lists before contacting us. For example, see 
discussion is available at http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/453995/ 
and http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg322327.html. Therefore, 
information on this patch is already fairly public at this point.


Given the circumstances, we will therefore remove our embargo, and allow 
vendors to address this issue more publicly if desired.

--

So if you see a CERT notice about IPv6 Router Advertisements and hop 
limits appear in the near future, you know that I've already performed 
our due diligence on this account.


For the record, I'm now officially a CERT point of contact, so I see 
things like this occasionally.  I hope to do right by illumos with this 
responsibility.  In the future, if I have a problem that I need help 
with, I know I can count on the community to help.  (Some of you already 
have helped, and without throwing you under the bus, THANK YOU!)


Happy IPv6-ing!
Dan McDonald -- OmniOS Engineering

 The first machine upgraded from oi_151a7 to oi_151a8 with no problems.
 The command I used was: pkg image-update --be-name oi_151a8 .  It
 updated 879 packages into a new BE.  It looked good when I rebooted
 into that BE.

 The second gave me trouble.  I used the same command, but it only
 updated 37 packages.  When I rebooted into the new BE, the kernel
 version was still oi_151a7 .  I rebooted back to the old BE and
 destroyed the new one.

 In October, I had upgraded this second machine from oi_151a5 to
 oi_151a7, with no problems.  It updated 947 packages that time.

 I did notice that the package `entire' was missing on the second
 machine, although it was present on the first one.  I had been
 upgrading this second machine periodically, starting with
 opensolaris-126 .  I suppose I must have removed `entire' somewhere
 along the way.  Perhaps that was the cause of the problem, but why
 did the upgrade to oi_151a7 succeed?

 I tried adding the correct version of `entire' for oi_151a7, in a new
 BE, but `pkg image-update -n' still told me it would update only 37
 packages.

 What could be preventing this upgrade from working?  What should I do
 next?

I don't know, but I have seen the same problem.  I have two OI boxes, 
one is old (dates back to OS 90 or something ... 5 years or so and has 
been updated many, many times through pkg image-updates) and the other 
was built with OI 151a7 a few months ago.

The old one displayed the same problem you describe, the new one was 
fine.  I had made the new one a hipster version in the mean time though, 
and then pulled it back to 151a8 dev release three days ago.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Workaround for Flash Plugin using older one

 I found a version that works with FF19 and FF22 (22 had other issues

The version that works for me currently is 10.1.85.3 from

I used the archived flashplayer10_1r53_64_solaris_x86.tar.bz2 from

remove the newest plugin, and  copy the old one in .mozilla/plugins

use the r53 instead of the r82, because the r82 does not work on
other sites (i.e. grooveshark)
to avoid activate the plugin every time follow this guide:
http://mzl.la/R7DD9y

I Hope this helps.



It does, thanks for the research. Actually, the 10.1r53 was the most
stable working horse of crashplayer before we switched to 11.1.
Of course, that version is also vulnerable, as far as this has
any practical relevance on non-Windows systems...
...


No it does not, the r53 is actually a r82 (they don't archive severely
vulnerable versions, but overwrite them silently). Instead of youtube,
most videos on Dailymotion are now broken, and in general this version
is very unstable. Did a check on later versions, but none of them
work with hipster.
So this problem is not fixed with that workaround, just shifted around.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Installing one package triggered upgrade

Is this something the user can fix? Or is the packaging broken?

I don't think that you should be able to have the rpool at version
5000 without installing from oi_151a5 media, or issuing a zpool
upgrade rpool or zpool upgrade -a manually after booting into
oi_151a5.  If these are not the case, then your rpool should still be
at version 28, and if so, previous boot environments should still work
(you can can activate the one you are currently booted into via the
package manager or beadm, and then a reboot should work, by not having
any changed packages).  It is not possible to downgrade a pool (so be
careful with zpool upgrade).

I installed the 151a1 media, I've never tried to do anything with ZFS,
and the previous boot environments still work. Problem is, any attempt
to install a package triggers an update and the new package goes into
the (broken) BE the upgrade sets up.

So the question is, how come the version of zfs pulled in by the new BE
is the wrong version for that BE? I'm not trying to avoid an upgrade, as
long as the machine still boots afterward.

Ryan



Firstly, an upgrade will not bump the zpool version - that would 
obviously be insane.


Secondly you installed an oi_151a system (there was no media for 
oi_151a1 BTW) with package versions 0.151.1 and all the prestables have 
0.151.1.x.  Unfortunately this has raised an ugly issue we didn't know 
about until it was too late that pkg incorrectly thinks they are the 
same and can satisfy dependencies with them.  This has the effect that 
you've seen that it therefore tries to upgrade you even when you install 
the simplest single package.


It is slightly strange that it only tries to install a few packages 
though which probably causes your issue.


The best thing to do would be to actually do a full upgrade.  I'm not 
sure if it will let you pick a version or not but to find out you need 
to use a command similar to the debugging command found here:

http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Troubleshooting+image-update+failures
This will allow you to find something that works for you.  A normal 
version upgrade is in the order of 900 packages so you should be able to 
see from the output if it looks like it is trying to do something sensible.


If you upgrade to a3 or later make sure you have a normal umask set to 
avoid https://www.illumos.org/issues/2651.

There does seem to be an unusually long delay around the 99% mark but I

Second time, it produced the Installation Failed screen after going

I'm not sure if the repository got overwritten, or simply newer

may be a way to force the installation of the older version of bind,
the one corresponding to the rest of the system. (Or if there still
exists a mirror of the original repository somewhere...)


Updating to 0.151.1.2 from /dev and rebooting is an option. Or should I be 
changing my publisher to something more reliable?


There is (currently) no stable release of OI. Your choices are to
stay with whatever system you happened to install (it works!), or
update to the most recent pre-stable release. I'm unable to find
anything newer/more stable than this:
http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/oi_151a_prestable1+Release+Notes

After refreshing the repositories with pkg refresh --full, you may
or may not need to first update pkg (pkg install -v
pkg:/package/pkg) before doing the full system upgrade (I did when
going from 151a to 151a-pre0).

There was no history rewriting (whatever that is supposed to mean), 
later versions are added to the repo with nothing being taken away.

The /dev repo is the most reliable for OI currently.

If you don't want to update then use:

pkg install blah@0.5.11-0.151.1.1

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] webmin upgraded with OI upgrade to 151.1.2, why???

It certainly seemed like webmin had been upgraded for this new 151
version, but I notice:
No it doesn't, OI branch versions get bumped with each release meaning 
you normally get updated metadata for every package installed when you 
update - slightly annoying and may change with the new system and a more 
rolling upgrade approach.  Anyway searching for all versions of webmin 
at pkg.openindiana.org/dev gives:


system/management/webmin@1.510,5.11-0.147:20100914T030204Z
system/management/webmin@1.510,5.11-0.148:20101125T011516Z
system/management/webmin@1.510,5.11-0.151.1.1:20120114T201949Z

system/management/webmin@1.510,5.11-0.151.1:20110912T025048Z

so you can see nothing has changed in regards to the webmin version.


A: It's still v 1.510 ( Official webmin is at 1.570. )

Sounds about right.  Plenty of packages are behind upstream.


B: The known bug, incorrect directory for the smf manifest file, had not
been fixed.
I don't suppose the upgrade was intentional, or just for image packaging
or something?? Stilll

C: an irritating minor problem remains. It offers to upgrade to a newer
webmin if you do that, webmin breaks in insiduous ways.
One should remove that offer, or rewrite it to only offer an IPS pkg(5)
upgrade if such an upgrade exists.
Are there bugs filed for these two issues?  bugs.openindiana.org doesn't 
seem to think so so could you do that please?

Jon,

This particular v20z refuses to update to the latest firmware, but bge
works properly for OpenSolaris up to and including 134b so it looks to
be a change to the bge driver found in Oi 147 or 148. There is another
issue where apcupsd wouldn't run because of some change in libusb as
well. Recompling from source wouldn't fix that problem either.

Unfortunately, this is my home router, file, web, mail, et. al. server
so I can't do extended experimentation and debugging.

That a second person saw a CPU issue with the bge driver makes me (want)
to believe something changed in the driver source to cause this.


Just to add to the data point, this exact same system (sans the Qudaro)
worked for many months with bge as primary NIC under various iterations
of Nevada and OpenSolaris. So I would concur with Gary that the fault
is something introduced post 134b, but remedied in Illumos based 148a.
The 2865 also has onboard nge, and that works fine, wh/I makes ruling
out something else in the stack a pretty safe bet.

I've been up to my ears with other things, but am curious if anyone has
checked Illumos bug tracker?

Best regards-- Ken



It is known that the bge driver in 148 is broken, please see this bug

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Image-updates

2010-12-18 Thread Jon Tibble
I've been mentioning this on IRC a lot and filed a bug for it 
(https://www.illumos.org/issues/547).


Please be aware that the opensolaris.org publisher should be set 
non-sticky to successfully upgrade - if it is not you will not have 
fully updated to oi_148.


To confirm if you have or have not fully updated you can run
pkg list | grep incorporation
and check all the builds are at 148.

I don't know about standard but for static ips, I use the 'old way'

svcadm disable network:nwam; svcadm enable network:physical and edit
/etc/resolv.conf and check for dns in /etc/nsswitch.conf for hosts.


Exactly what I hoped to avoid.

Hello,

See: http://blogs.sun.com/PlasticPixel/entry/nwam_static_ip_address_for

The other files you'll want to check (I'm unsure if these are essential)
when setting up a NIC are:
/etc/nsswitch.conf
/etc/defaultrouter


I've seen various comments about that  /etc/nsswitch.conf
In my case it shows `files' first at every entry including `host'.
Apparently some where added by dhcp when that was used:


From /etc/nsswitch.conf on opensolaris b 134

[...]
   #hosts:  files # Commented out by DHCP
   hosts: files dns # Added by DHCP
   #ipnodes:files # Commented out by DHCP
   ipnodes: files dns # Added by DHCP
[...]

About /etc/defaultrouter I do not have that file.  I could of
course create it, but it seems to work without it.

   find /etc/ -iname '*router*'nada

But the route is still set and shows up in `netstat -nr' So that one
(/etc/defaultrouter) may not be necessary (this is on opensolaris b
134)

--- - ---=--- - 

Thanks for the URL... yes, I found other input very similar and did that on an
opensolaris install successfully so hopefully it will also do the job
on openindiana b 147 Haven't got to it yet.

However I will say that opensolaris b 134 does not have the same setup
at the network icon on upper left of desktop.

oi b 147 has a different and better dialog far as I saw.  And it may
have actually done the job... it turned out that my virtual networking
was confused by having both vmware and vbox installed apparently
when I installed vbox (after vmware by a week or two) it took over the
vmware vmnet adaptors somewhat confusing... but ok now.



NWAM does static IP nicely, just not all settings are entirely accessible by
GUI (imo config files are simpler/nicer anyway).


Yes, give me files too but which are you referring to that are not
accessible?  Do you mean /etc/defaultrouter and /etc/nsswitch.conf?


I haven't done it since b134 but there using the GUI to NWAM from the 
status bar next to the clock worked.  Should be fairly straight forward. 
 Think I may have needed one or two relogins to get the status bar to 
show both correct info and green instead of errors but it worked.

Is it possible that oi148 will be ready in 2, 3 weeks? Does anybody

know

how long it will take?

I won't install snv147.


Hi Daniel,

I believe what's been posted to the list was that it's expected to be
available in 1Q 2011 (meaning 1st quarter of 2011). Since that won't be
until after the beginning of the new year I would suspect the answer to
your question is 'no'. But I have no inside knowledge.


Cia W



snip

The 2011.Q1 is for the first stable release as opposed to the more 
regular dev releases.  oi_147 and oi_148 are dev releases.  148 will 
be out ASAP - obviously not before it is all built though.


Check http://wiki.openindiana.org/display/oi/oi_148 for the current 
status.  You'll see at the moment the hold up is getting g11n built. 
Once that is done progress should be more easy to spot.
