https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=236712 Summary: /etc/bindresvprt.blacklist is incorrectly processed and effectively ignored Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: brian@theharrises.plus.com QAContact: qa@suse.de The blacklist as supplied is effectively ignored due to the presence of a tab between the port number and associated comment. In my case, this resulted in cups not being able to function as its port 631 was stolen. The rogue line of code is in glibc-2.4/sunrpc/bindrsvprt.c, line 91: if (*tmp != '\0' || (port == ULONG_MAX && errno == ERANGE)) tmp is pointing to the first character after the port number. With the supplied blacklist, this is a tab character, resulting in the line being rejected. As far as I can see, this line serves no useful purpose and is an overkill for validation, and It should be removed. The circumvention is to delete the tabs after the port numbers in /etc/bindresvprt.blacklist. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
