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.

Description Scott Poore 2018-03-02 17:08:41 UTC 
Description of problem:

When we have a smart card connected that contains certificates that are not mapped to a user, GDM login seems to fail with a repeated loop on either the PIN or User Hint Prompts:

"Sorry that didn't work.  Please try again."

This repeats in a loop.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sssd-1.16.0-19.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:
Seems to be reproducible.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Setup IPA Env with Smart Card auth enabled.
2.  Add cert on card to user
3.  test
4.  remove certmapdata from user

Actual results:
failure loop


Expected results:
single failure and go back to normal login selection

Comment 5 Scott Poore 2018-03-02 17:28:59 UTC 
FYI, I think I'm seeing the same thing when the certificate is revoked.

In my case, the cert on the card was from IPA and I put a revoke hold on the cert in IPA.  I saw the same loop when that was done.
Comment 6 Jakub Hrozek 2019-03-07 21:38:03 UTC 
I'm sorry, but we will not have the capacity to address this bug in 7.7, given that the work has not started and the devel freeze is in about three weeks. Therefore I'm moving the bug to 7.8.

Please push back if you think this bug is important to be fixed in 7.7.

# Remove smartcard from reader here
# Then checking with GDM

After GDM comes back up, I see PIN prompt.  When I enter pin it says "Sorry, that didn't work.  Please try again." and returns to the PIN prompt as expected.  There is no more failure loop.

This is expected behavior with the fix.
