rpmlint checks for hostname verification

by Hubert Kario

One of the most common issues with TLS client applications is that they don't perform hostname verification or do it incorrectly (ignore SANs, handle wildcards incorrectly). As a result, often they will accept any certificate signed by any trusted CA. Given that acquiring a certificates can be completely free (even an email certificate will work), it's trivial to MitM such appplications. I'd like to extend rpmlint to perform rudimentary checks to see if that happens[1]. A draft of the proposal to FPC is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Hkario/HostnameChecks Suggestions? 1 - the check would be just "if call to A is present, check if call to B is present", the way setgid, setuid, setgroups is done, just generalised -- Regards, Hubert Kario Quality Engineer, QE BaseOS Security team Web: www.cz.redhat.com Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkyňova 99/71, 612 45, Brno, Czech Republic

by S.Mohammad Emami Razavi

I run $ [root@localhost rooster]# journalctl -u packagekit -f -n 5000 in fedora [root@localhost rooster]# cat /etc/redhat-release Fedora release 22 (Twenty Two) and it results something like below lines: Jul 21 06:54:28 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: uid 1000 is trying to obtain org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-sources-refresh auth (only_trusted:0) Jul 21 06:54:28 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: uid 1000 obtained auth for org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-sources-refresh Jul 21 07:36:45 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: refresh-cache transaction /345_edadcabc from uid 1000 finished with success after 2536929ms Jul 21 07:36:45 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: get-updates transaction /346_aaeccddc from uid 1000 finished with success after 555ms Jul 21 07:36:45 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: new update-packages transaction /347_eacacecc scheduled from uid 1000 Jul 21 07:36:48 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: update-packages transaction /347_eacacecc from uid 1000 finished with cancelled-priority after 2594ms Jul 21 07:36:48 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: resolve transaction /348_caabddad from uid 1000 finished with success after 143ms Jul 21 07:36:48 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: resolve transaction /349_aabcaabc from uid 1000 finished with success after 83ms Jul 21 07:36:48 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: resolve transaction /350_dbadaaeb from uid 1000 finished with success after 31ms Jul 21 07:36:50 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: new update-packages transaction /351_bebbaccb scheduled from uid 1000 Jul 21 09:27:31 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: update-packages transaction /351_bebbaccb from uid 1000 finished with success after 6640574ms Jul 21 09:27:35 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: resolve transaction /352_cababcaa from uid 1000 finished with success after 30ms Jul 21 09:27:35 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: resolve transaction /353_ccabcecc from uid 1000 finished with success after 81ms Jul 21 09:27:35 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: resolve transaction /354_caddccdb from uid 1000 finished with success after 30ms Jul 21 09:27:35 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: resolve transaction /355_ddaacaea from uid 1000 finished with success after 278ms Jul 21 09:27:37 localhost.localdomain PackageKit[18871]: get-update-detail transaction /356_dabbaeed from uid 1000 finished with success after 1611ms It has very suspicious and unusual behavior to use network bandwidth. For example in 10 days it downloads over 2GB from net!!! regardless of dnf or yum updates... Any expert with relaxing answer?

Nagios packages

by David Cafaro

Hello All, So I have several tickets which it seems the maintainers have not interest in maintaining anymore related to nagios and nagios plugins: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1121500 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1121499 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1098549 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1098548 I’ve got no response from the existing people so I went searching for people. I reached out to the Nagios folks and Scott Wilkerson, Nagios Product Development Manager, is interested in getting someone on their team on board to help maintain the Fedora/CentOS packages. Any recommendations on how best to get them up to speed. As I am not well versed on the package maintainer system I could use some help/guidance in getting them up and running smoothly/quickly. Thanks David
