Subject: x2go client crashes if .bashrc prints anything
Date: Sat, 19 Oct 2013 12:22:43 -0400 (EDT)
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: x2goclient
Version: 4.0.0.3
 
If I put an
echo "testing"   # exact text doesn't matter
 
at the top of my .bashrc, then the x2goclient crashes immediately when trying to start a session.
 
(The crash does not occur if I put a similar statement in .bash_login.)
 
I have reproduced this on the Windows client; I believe a colleague saw it on both the Windows and Linux clients.
 
The x2go server being used is  4.0.1.6-0~712~precise1.

I can confirm that the issue exists with latest X2Go Client.

I could confirm this issue on Debian wheezy or Ubuntu precise as X2Go  
Server. On Ubuntu lucid, the problem does not occur.

Right, this is on the server. With the Windows client there is no 
.bashrc anyway. I confirmed with my colleague that he saw this on both 
the Windows and Ubuntu Precise clients.

Which windowing system chosen on the server does not seem to matter 
either. I saw it with UNITY and with just "Terminal".

That's interesting. The reason for putting in the echo's was to debug a 
completely unrelated problem about which shell init got run when we were 
running some batch jobs. I had instrumented the init files before 
without difficulty. Thanks for looking at this.

I have looked at this in depth this morning. Indeed an echoing .bashrc  
file breaks X2Go. But it also breaks everything else around SSH, esp.  
scp [1, 2].

The first link [1] also provides a solution that I want to quote here:

""" (file: ~/.bashrc)
[... normal .bashrc stuff ...]

if [[ $- =~ "i" ]]; then
   echo "SPEAK OUT LOUD!!!"
fi
"""

The i-flag in $- checks if the shell is interactive or not. With X2Go,  
this flag will not get set.

Greets,
Mike

Subject: Users can inject arbitrary data into X2Go Client via .bashrc
Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2013 12:36:14 +0000
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi All,

Dan Halbert made me aware of it being easily possible to inject  
arbitrary data into X2Go Client via the server-side .bashrc file. This  
surely is a security problem in X2Go.

Thus, I found that we really need to do some sanity checks on incoming  
output from X2Go Servers to avoid such injections.

The idea is to invoke the server-side command with a UUID hash before  
and after the actuall command invocation:

1. execute server-side command from X2Go Client:

ssh <user>@<server> sh -c "echo <uuidhash> && <x2gocmd> && echo <uuidhash>

2. read data from X2Go Server:

X2GODATABEGIN:<uuidhash>
<x2godata_line1>
<x2godata_line2>
....
<x2godata_lineN>
X2GODATAEND:<uuidhash>

3. cut out the X2Go data returned by the server (in C++):

      QString begin_marker = "X2GODATABEGIN:"+uuid+"\n";
      QString end_marker = "X2GODATAEND:"+uuid+"\n";
      int output_begin=stdOutString.indexOf(begin_marker) + \\
                       begin_marker.length();
      int output_end=stdOutString.indexOf(end_marker);
      output = stdOutString.mid(output_begin, \\
                                output_end-output_begin);


I have a patch locally for this and will commit it in a minute. We can  
discuss the patch and move on from there when it's there.

Unfortunately, this patch does not fix #327 as it is impossible to use  
scp with echoing .bashrc files. With this patch applied, the session  
starts, but setting up the SSHfs shares fails with locking up X2Go  
Client.

For people who depend on echoing .bashrc files, please read my last  
post on #327.

Hi Mike, this fix to authenticate the commands is good. I didn't realize 
I was uncovering a security problem.

One question: the underlying crash was due to bad data. If authenticated 
but still bad data is sent, will the client still crash? I am thinking 
about a malicious server crafting something to crash the client or have 
it do something bad. I looked at the code diff and I didn't see some 
underlying verification of the x2go commands.

E.g.:
X2GODATABEGIN:<good-uuidhash>
bad data here
X2GODATAEND:<good-uuidhash>

I would indeed call this work in progress. See #334 for the ,,bad data  
here'' location you address above.

We surely need a means to ensure that the data sent over the wire is  
sane. An idea could be to encrypt/decrypt the data asymmetrically.  
Maybe something else...

Hmmm...

I don't think that evaluating the data in itself (via regexp e.g.)  
will lead to good results. We should invent a method that is common to  
all sorts of text data and makes sure that the data is for the client  
that requested it.

On the other hand... If you cannot trust your admin, who can you trust???

Any contribution of ideas is welcome.

Mike

This actually also applies to Python X2Go.

Changes: 
 python-x2go (0.4.0.9-0x2go1) RELEASED; urgency=low
 .
   [ Mike Gabriel ]
   * New upstream version (0.4.0.9):
     - Agent channels in Paramiko can raise an EOFError if the connection
       has got disrupted. Ignoring this.
     - Store the session password in base64 encoded string in order to make
       it harder spotting the long term stored (for the duration of the session)
       plain text password.
     - Support encryption passphrases on SSH private key files (X2Go SSH
       connections as well as SSH proxy connections).
     - Invalidate SSH private keys (filename, pkey object) when look_for_keys is
       requested.
     - Keep private key information even if force_password_auth is set in the
       control session's connect() method.
     - Fix parameter handling in X2GoSession.connect().
     - Rewrite passwords that are not string/unicode to an empty string.
     - No Unicode chars in log messages. Eliminated one more in checkhosts.py.
     - Implement two-factor authentication.
     - Compat fix in _paramiko monkey patch module to also work with early
       Paramiko versions.
     - Handle echoing ~/.*shrc files gracefully via SSH client connections. Do
       not allow data injections via ~/.*shrc files. (Fixes: #335).
     - Properly handle (=expand) the "~" character in key filenames. (Brought to
       attention by Eldamir on IRC. Thanks!).
     - Differentiate between desktop sharing errors and desktop sharing access
       that gets denied by the other/remote user.
     - Report about found session window / session window retitling in debug
       mode.
     - Fix session window detection when local session manager is the i3 session
       manager (which uses _NET_CLIENT_LIST_STACKING instead of
       _NET_CLIENT_LIST).
     - Check for pulse cookie file in old (~/.pulse-cookie) and new
       (~/.config/pulse/cookie) location.
     - Import python-x2go-py3.patch from Fedora. Thanks to Orion!!!
     - Improve setup.py script: make it run with Python3 and older Python2
       versions.
     - Fix tests for two-factor authentication in control session and SSH proxy
       code.
     - Fix regression: Make password logins with PyHoca-CLI succeed again.
     - Make channel compression to all authentication methods.
     - Set keepalive on proxy channel.
     - Only use [<host>]:<port> if <port> is not 22.
     - Handle host key checks for hosts that do not have a port specified.
   * debian/source/format:
     + Switch to format 1.0.
   * python-x2go.spec:
     + Ship python-x2go.spec (RPM package definitions) in upstream project.
       (Thanks to the Fedora package maintainers).
     + Clear (Fedora package) changelog.
     + Drop dependency on python-cups.
 .
   [ Orion Poplawski ]
   * debian/control:
     + Drop python-cups from Depends: field. Python CUPS is no dependency if
       Python X2Go. (Fixes: #329).
 .
   [ Kenneth Pedersen ]
   * New upstream version (0.4.0.9):
     - Color depth detection: Stop using win32api.GetSystemMetrics(2) which actually
       returns the width of a vertical scroll bar in pixels. Instead, create a screen
       display context and query it for the color depth. (Fixes: #330).
