Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:4.6p1-2
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss
I just upgraded to this version of openssh on a system with SELinux
enabled but in permissive mode. Thank goodness I left an SSH session
open: connections after that succeeded at authentication, but were
immediately closed by the server. The following log messages appeared:
Jun 27 09:56:07 teleri sshd[12293]: pam_selinux: Open Session
Jun 27 09:56:07 teleri sshd[12293]: Unable to get valid context for bts, No
valid tty
Jun 27 09:56:07 teleri sshd[12293]: error: PAM: pam_open_session():
Authentication failure
Jun 27 09:56:07 teleri sshd[12293]: error: ssh_selinux_getctxbyname: Failed to
get default SELinux security context for bts
Jun 27 09:56:07 teleri sshd[12293]: fatal: ssh_selinux_getctxbyname: Failed to
get default SELinux security context for bts (in enforcing mode)
The machine was actually in permissive mode, though it had been booted
in enforcing mode. After I downgraded to the testing 4.3 package, I saw
messages that correctly acknowledged that the machine was in permissive
mode:
Jun 27 10:01:32 teleri sshd[12501]: error: Failed to get default security
context for bts.Continuing in permissive mode
Jun 27 10:01:32 teleri sshd[12499]: error: Failed to get default security
context for bts.Continuing in permissive mode
So it looks like sshd's check for enforcing mode is broken. This
behavior persisted regardless of whether I had sshd set to use PAM, and
regardless of whether pam_selinux was enabled in /etc/pam.d/ssh
