Public bug reported: I received a Yubikey 4 yesterday, and attempted to set up authentication with it on my Wily system. After installing the necessary packages, I ran 'dpkg-reconfigure libpam-yubico' and added my ID number and key. When I now try to log in on a VC, I first enter my username, then I get prompted for my Yubikey. I press the button on the key and immediately get thrown back to a VC with a login prompt and the following message in the log:
[1805628.239225] login[29456]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f16bcb0030f sp 00007f16b1d0a540 error 4 in libc-2.21.so[7f16bca84000+1c0000] Logins via SSH work, however; I get prompted for the Yubikey, press the button, enter password at the next prompt and I'm logged in. It seems authentication methods that do not open a network connection work, since if I edit /etc/pam.d/common-auth to use challenge-response authentication instead it works fine. The problem is that this will not work with a remote SSH connection as it requires hardware access. (I tried upgrading to the packages in ppa:yubico/stable, but there was no difference - /bin/login still segfaults. I reverted to the original Wily packages and tried again before filing this bug.) libpam-yubico: Installed: 2.19-1 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: libpam-yubico 2.19-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-18.22-generic 4.2.3 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-18-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Fri Dec 11 08:27:52 2015 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-07-16 (147 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Release amd64 (20150422.1) SourcePackage: yubico-pam UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to wily on 2015-10-20 (51 days ago) ** Affects: yubico-pam (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug wily -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1525105 Title: yubikey login segfaults /bin/login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/yubico-pam/+bug/1525105/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
