[Bug 596676] Re: Don't send error stanza as reply to error stanza (EJAB-930)

2011-01-19 Thread Konstantin Khomoutov
I have prepared a backport for Lucid about two months ago [1] and getting a working package is just a matter of running git-buildpackage on the checkout of that branch. I have prepared that fix to help MiGri get this fix into his distro, but I can't do anything beyond that as I'm not affiliated wit

I disagree: Badlop connected to a muc service and sent it an error stanza, in reply, the muc service sent his client another stanza; this violates RFC but what else? This does not result in any loop just by itself because well-behaving clients won't send their own error stanza back. So to DoS the s

If I understand the bug correctly, that's only half the story. Badlop give an example for an exploit on 15/May/09 (sic!) at https://support.process-one.net/browse/EJAB-930. The restriction of a service - like the MUC-service in the example - is not a misconfiguration but can be set very deliberat

Well, I failed to reply the "Will the 2.1.4 be available for Ubuntu 10.04, too?" question, MiGri, sorry. The answer is: I have no idea how to make 2.1.4 available for specific Ubuntu release as I do not use Ubuntu. Also, in Debian, we would not upload 2.1.4 to already-released version, but this

Hmm, if I read https://support.process-one.net/browse/EJAB-930 correctly, this issue affects ejabberd versions since 2.0.1; this even means Debian Lenny (current stable). I've no idea about Ubuntu versions affected as I have no idea about what's considered "supported" at the moment. Consequently

Reported in Debian as http://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=585832 I think there's no need to take special actions for 2.1.3: we will upload 2.1.4 quite soon which has this issue fixed. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #585832 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=
