Description Alon Bar-Lev 2015-03-19 11:47:46 UTC 
Created attachment 1003813 [details]
Resolve.java

Existence of ipv6 resolver address cases jndi resolver to fail, due to incorrect parsing of /etc/resolv.conf.

In linux[1] the format should be:

nameserver ipv4|ipv6

While Java expects the *bsd (and may be others) style of:

nameserver ipv4|\[ipv6\][:port]

I checked glibc's libresolv and clearly the [] nor port are unexpected.

Java parse implementation[3] tries to extract port after ']'.

Effected versions are probably since ever(?) including java-8.

OpenJDK bug was opened long time ago[4].

Attached reproduce program.

Comment 2 Deepak Bhole 2015-03-19 13:46:39 UTC 
Hi, what are the contents of your resolv.conf?

(In reply to Deepak Bhole from comment #2)
> Hi, what are the contents of your resolv.conf?

you can put any ipv6, simple example:

nameserver ::1

Severin already fixed the root issue in another bug.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1210739 ***
Comment 6 Andrew John Hughes 2015-06-23 15:54:31 UTC 
The other bug is a Fedora java-1.8.0-openjdk bug. This is for java-1.7.0-openjdk on RHEL 7.1. Re-opening.
