This requires turning the host wrapper checks into warnings, which compromises security. Example: Since I upgraded to the new libwrap0 (I had patched this and noted this problem before, but the patch didn't make it into the new version): Jan 31 18:51:40 Ishtar sshd[51467]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 63: host name mismatch: Ishtar.tlinx.org != (null) (::ffff:192.168.3.1) Jan 31 18:51:40 Ishtar sshd[51469]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 63: host name mismatch: Ishtar.tlinx.org != (null) (::ffff:192.168.3.1) Jan 31 18:51:42 Ishtar xinetd[51471]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 63: host name mismatch: Ishtar.tlinx.org != (null) (::ffff:192.168.3.1) Jan 31 18:51:42 Ishtar xinetd[51472]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 63: host name mismatch: Ishtar.tlinx.org != (null) (::ffff:192.168.3.1) Jan 31 19:46:51 Ishtar sshd[57295]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 63: host name mismatch: Athenae != (null) (::ffff:192.168.4.12) Feb 1 23:32:57 Ishtar sshd[20335]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 63: host name mismatch: Athenae != (null) (::ffff:192.168.4.12) Feb 2 10:59:50 Ishtar sshd[31950]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 63: host name mismatch: Athenae != (null) (::ffff:192.168.4.12) Feb 3 10:51:02 Ishtar sshd[6633]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 63: host name mismatch: Athenae != (null) (::ffff:192.168.4.12) ---- I do not have ipv6 enabled and do not have ipv6 addresses being returned from my bind/named server. Athenae properly resolves:

dig +short Athenae 192.168.4.12 As does Ishtar.tlinx.org dig +short Ishtar.tlinx.org 173.164.175.65

What I am not sure of since libwrap shows Ishtar.tlinx.org as mapping to null is if it really meant Ishtar:

dig +short Ishtar 192.168.4.1

-- 192.168.3.1 is also valid from some machines -- so that mapping doesn't bother me so much -- but the thing is, with libwrap0 having to be set to warn-only due to the above bug, it won't fail on wrong resolutions. I.e. because of the bogus check output -- it has to be set to warn -- which may be allowing things to pass that shouldn't. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. It might require a kernel with IPv6 disabled/not compiled in -- not sure. named should only return ipv4 records as they are the ones that are being mangled In my /etc/hosts.allow, I have: ALL: LOCAL, 192.168.4.0/255.255.255.0, 192.168.3.0/255.255.255.0 : ALLOW Actual Results: actual results are the bogus warning. Note -- from the tcpd manpage -- If the sources are compiled with -DPARANOID, tcpd will drop the connec- tion in case of a host name/address mismatch. Otherwise, the hostname can be matched with the PARANOID wildcard, after which suitable action can be taken. ---------- I.e. I seem to remember that with paranoid wildcard, it would drop instead of warn. Expected Results: no errors on valid hostsnames.. For some reason I can't get the attachment function to work... so will have to include it manually, but the "attachment" is a patch for the tcpd source from 13.1 (spec file had added: Patch30: socket-tcp.diff %patch30 at appropriate places (after #29)... diff file included in additional information. --- socket.c 2013-05-23 14:08:58.000000000 -0700 +++ socket.c 2013-05-23 16:28:40.415779720 -0700 @@ -22,6 +22,8 @@ /* System libraries. */ #include +#include +#include #include #include #include @@ -38,6 +40,21 @@ #include "tcpd.h" + +static int ipv6_cached = -1; + +int ipv6 () { + int errstat; + struct stat buf; + if (ipv6_cached==-1) { + errstat=stat("/proc/sys/net/ipv6", &buf); + if (errstat==0 /* && (buf->mode_t & S_IFDIR)*/) ipv6_cached=1; + else ipv6_cached=0; + } + return ipv6_cached; +} + + /* Forward declarations. */ static void sock_sink(); @@ -66,10 +83,10 @@ } else { sprintf(dot_name, "%s.", name); hp = gethostbyname(dot_name); - if (hp) - return hp; - else - return (gethostbyname(name)); + if (hp) + return hp; + else + return (gethostbyname(name)); } } @@ -79,15 +96,15 @@ /* sock_host - look up endpoint addresses and install conversion methods */ void sock_host(request) -struct request_info *request; -{ -#ifdef INET6 - static struct sockaddr_storage client; - static struct sockaddr_storage server; -#else +struct request_info *request; { + static struct sockaddr_storage client6; + static struct sockaddr_storage server6; static struct sockaddr_in client; static struct sockaddr_in server; -#endif + + void * clientx = ipv6() ? &client6 : &client; + void * serverx = ipv6() ? &server6 : &server; + int len; char buf[BUFSIZ]; int fd = request->fd; @@ -103,12 +120,12 @@ * broken library code. */ - len = sizeof(client); - if (getpeername(fd, (struct sockaddr *) & client, &len) < 0) { + len = ipv6() ? sizeof(client6) : sizeof(client); + if (getpeername(fd, (struct sockaddr *) clientx, &len) < 0) { request->sink = sock_sink; - len = sizeof(client); + len = ipv6() ? sizeof(client6) : sizeof(client); if (recvfrom(fd, buf, sizeof(buf), MSG_PEEK, - (struct sockaddr *) & client, &len) < 0) { + (struct sockaddr *) clientx, &len) < 0) { tcpd_warn("can't get client address: %m"); return; /* give up */ } @@ -116,11 +133,8 @@ memset(buf, 0 sizeof(buf)); #endif } -#ifdef INET6 - request->client->sin = (struct sockaddr *)&client; -#else - request->client->sin = &client; -#endif + + request->client->sin = (struct sockaddr *)clientx; /* * Determine the server binding.
