RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2016:2592 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Moderate: subscription-manager security, bug fix, and enhancement update 2016-11-03 12:10:42 UTC

Description Chris Snyder 2016-04-21 19:55:00 UTC 
Description of problem:
In the healing lib (used by rhsmcertd), there is a variable 'valid_tomorrow' that is not defined on all code paths.

This bz is to document issue #1409 ( https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/issues/1409)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
subscription-manager-1.17.4-1


Actual results:
variable valid_tomorrow is not defined on all code paths leading to its use.


Expected results:
The variable is defined prior to being used.
Comment 2 Chris Snyder 2016-04-21 20:00:21 UTC 
Proposed fix from Belonesox:

https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/pull/1410
Comment 3 John Sefler 2016-04-22 14:30:27 UTC 
I see in https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/issues/1409 that a "UnboundLocalError: local variable 'valid_tomorrow' referenced before assignment" traceback is being thrown when calling subscription-manager repos --list-enabled.

I was not able to reproduce this issue with the limited info.  Please provide the specific use case that throws the exception and the subscription-manager version that is failing. I see that from the code fix in comment 2 that it is a simple matter of initialization, but I don't know the exact user scenario to execute and hit the traceback.
Comment 4 Chris Snyder 2016-04-22 17:22:49 UTC 
I have not been able to recreate it.
In theory it should arise whenever the certs a system has are valid today but not tomorrow.
I've tried entitling a system then moving the date to 1 year in the future on both the server and client (as well as one year - one day in the future) and neither seem to be triggering this issue.

That being said it seems a like a clear issue in our code base and has a straight forward fix (define the variable valid_tomorrow with the default of 'false' before we ever use it).

If we can find a way to recreate this that wouldn't hurt but I think the fix should be accepted either way.
Comment 5 Chris Snyder 2016-04-26 18:17:56 UTC 
Fix merged to upstream master as of the below commit hash:
