Description Patrik Kis 2014-10-23 12:20:55 EDT

Description of problem:
The test t_kdb.py from the upstream test suite is failing. The test was introduced in krb5-1.12.2.
I believe the issue is that the test is trying the following command incorrectly:
addprinc -randkey -e aes256-cts,aes128-cts kvnoprinc'
it should be 
addprinc -randkey -e aes256-cts:normal,aes128-cts:normal kvnoprinc'
It is the same also in the newest krb5-1.13.
The proposed fix was attached.

NOTE: the issue might remain hidden because the test is executed only if openldap-servers and openldap-clients packages are installed. If these packages are missing the test silently passes.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
krb5-1.12.2-8.el7

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1/ run the upstream testsuite
# make runenv.py
# cd tests
# make check-pytests

... snip ...

PYTHONPATH=../util VALGRIND="" python ./t_keytab.py 
PYTHONPATH=../util VALGRIND="" python ./t_kadmin_acl.py 
PYTHONPATH=../util VALGRIND="" python ./t_kdb.py 
*** Failure: After cpw -keepold, wrong number of keys

See testlog for details, or re-run with -v flag.

Use --debug=NUM to run a command under a debugger.  Use
--stop-after=NUM to stop after a daemon is started in order to
attach to it with a debugger.  Use --help to see other options.

Patch:
https://github.com/krb5/krb5/pull/226

Comment 3 Patrik Kis 2015-04-03 05:02:57 EDT

This should be handled in krb5-1.13.1 by fixing kadmin.
See the details here: https://github.com/krb5/krb5/pull/226.

Comment 5 Roland Mainz 2015-05-17 16:26:11 EDT

Fixed in krb5-1.13.1-2.el7 (well... technically with rebase krb5-1.13.1-0.el7) ...

... marking bug as MODIFIED.
