971235 – Ovirt log show the SAM ProxyPassword in plaintext

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.

Comment 15 cshao 2014-02-07 06:12:21 UTC

Test version:
rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20140120.0.auto1032.el6.devel.iso
ovirt-node-3.0.1-999.0.20140205151425git4b2452c.el6.noarch

Test steps:
1. Clear install RHEV-H.
2. Configure network with dhcp.
3. On the Red Hat Network page, regist using "SAM" mode and ProxySever.
4. Check in ovirt-node.log file

Test result:
The password of the ProxyServer show as plaintext. But I met 1051514(ASSIGNED), so I will double check after bug 1051514 is fixed.

========================================================

Do you actually mean here that it is NOT shown as plaintext?

Oh, it is a typo, the password of proxy show as 'XXXXXXX' but not plaintext. so the bug is fixed with rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20140120.0.auto1032.el6.devel.iso.

Test version:
rhevh-6.5-20140211.1.iso
ovirt-node-3.0.1-18.el6_5.4.noarch

Test step:
1. Clear install RHEV-H.
2. Configure network with dhcp.
3. On the Red Hat Network page, regist using "Subscription Asset Manager" mode and ProxySever.
4. Check in ovirt.log, ovirt-node.log,rhsm.log file.

Test result:
1. After step4, it only save the register detail info in ovirt-node.log as the follows.
==============================================================================
2014-02-12 05:54:53,534       INFO ['subscription-manager', 'config', '--server.proxy_password', 'XXXXXXX']
2014-02-12 05:54:53,708       INFO Registering to RHN account.....
2014-02-12 05:54:53,720       INFO ['/usr/sbin/subscription-manager', 'register', '--username', 'admin', '--password', 'XXXXXXX', '--name', 'huiwa-test-2', '--proxyuser', 'rhevh', '--proxypassword', 'XXXXXXX', '--force', '--autosubscribe']
==============================================================================

So this bug is fixed in ovirt-node-3.0.1-18.el6_5.4.noarch. It now saves the proxypasword as "XXXXXXX".

I will change the status to Verified when the status is ON_QA.

Thanks
