Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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.
Description of problem:
there seems to be no input validation for parameters provided to /api/hosts/<host>/errata/apply (specifically errata_ids parameter):
<pre>
$ curl -k -u admin:changeme -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"errata_ids": []}' https://sat6.server.com/api/v2/hosts/12977/errata/apply
{"displayMessage":"undefined method `-' for nil:NilClass","errors":["undefined method `-' for nil:NilClass"]}
$ curl -k -u admin:changeme -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"errata_ids": 1}' https://sat6.server.com/api/v2/hosts/12977/errata/apply
{"displayMessage":"ERROR: operator does not exist: character varying = integer\nLINE 1: ...ROM \"katello_errata\" WHERE \"katello_errata\".\"errata_id\" = 1\n ^\nHINT: No operator matches the given name and argument type(s). You might need to add explicit type casts.\n","errors":["ERROR: operator does not exist: character varying = integer\nLINE 1: ...ROM \"katello_errata\" WHERE \"katello_errata\".\"errata_id\" = 1\n ^\nHINT: No operator matches the given name and argument type(s). You might need to add explicit type casts.\n"]}
</pre>
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.2.0 Beta
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. get some hosts registered to your satellite
2. send out one of the PUT HTTP requests (as stated above)
Actual results:
no input validation happens on the parameters, so the code uses any input and crashes with it (wrong or null type, etc.)
Expected results:
validation takes place and raise proper exception if the input is invalid, user receives properly formatted error message in the JSON response.
Additional info:
Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please feel free to contact Rich Jerrido or Bryan Kearney. Thank you.
