1638295 – sssctl user-checks does not show custom IFP user_attributes

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 Ondrej 2018-10-11 09:42:01 UTC

Description of problem:

"sssctl user-checks" also query the IFP interface of sssd. The problem is, that this command only displays POSIX user attrs, no matter if we configured the InfoPipe for additional user attributes.

for example, if I have the following configuration snippet:
[ifp]
    	debug_level = 9
	allowed_uids = ondrejv, root
	user_attributes = +mail, +telephoneNumber, +givenname, +sn

I would expect the "sssctl user-checks" command will
- also return the value of "mail, telephoneNumber, givenname, sn" attributes
- ideally, we could make the "sssctl user-checks" also available for non-root users (ondrejv in the example above), but I guess I am asking too much :-)

I know I could get the results with dbus-send or the Python dbus module, but parsing the output of sssctl is better parseable for a simple bash script.

Comment 2 Jakub Hrozek 2018-10-12 07:22:30 UTC

Initial triage notes:
 - the IFP interface seems to publish the list of the extra attributes, so the sssctl tool might read them this way and display the attributes. This should be doable for both 1.16 and 2.0

 - using non-root is a separate issue though. While we /should/ make it possible for every user to display info about 'self', this would probably mean we need to finish the polkit integration. It is also not very likely that this work will be backportable to 1.16 as only the D-Bus changes Pavel did in 2.0 allow us for the right level of granularity.

Comment 8 Madhuri 2019-09-10 12:38:01 UTC

By mistake I copied wrong sssd.conf

Here is correct sssd.conf

[root@vm-idm-018 ~]# cat /etc/sssd/sssd.conf 
[sssd]
config_file_version = 2
services = nss, pam, ifp
domains = example1

[domain/example1]
debug_level = 9
use_fully_qualified_names = True
ldap_user_home_directory = /home/%u
ldap_uri = ldaps://ipaqavmh.idmqe.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com
ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=test
id_provider = ldap
auth_provider = ldap
ldap_tls_cacert = /etc/openldap/cacerts/cacert.pem

debug_level = 9
allowed_uids = 0, 1001
