default. Keeping the feature enabled is safe. Disabling it permits
to disable the references to the SHA256 and SHA512 password
encryption algorithms from the usage help and manuals (in addition
to the support for these algorithms in the code).
* libmisc/obscure.c, libmisc/salt.c, src/newusers.c,
src/chpasswd.c, src/chgpasswd.c, src/passwd.c: ENCRYPT_METHOD is
always supported in login.defs. Remove the ENCRYPTMETHOD_SELECT
preprocessor condition.
* libmisc/obscure.c, libmisc/salt.c, src/newusers.c,
src/chpasswd.c, src/chgpasswd.c, src/passwd.c: Disable SHA256 and
SHA512 if USE_SHA_CRYPT is not defined (this corresponds to a
subset of the ENCRYPTMETHOD_SELECT sections).
SHA256, and SHA512 exactly (not only the first 3/6 chars).
* libmisc/salt.c (SHA_salt_rounds): Set rounds to the specified
prefered_rounds value, if specified.
* src/gpasswd.c, libmisc/salt.c: Fix compilation warnings (use
size_t for lengths).
* src/chpasswd.c, src/chgpasswd.c: Add missing parenthesis.
crypt_make_salt to force the crypt method and number of rounds.
* libmisc/salt.c: Add parameter to SHA_salt_rounds to force the
number of rounds.
* libmisc/salt.c, lib/getdef.c: ENCRYPT_METHOD and MD5_CRYPT_ENAB
are needed also when USE_PAM (e.g. for chpasswd).
* src/newusers.c, src/gpasswd.c: Use the new crypt_make_salt prototype.
* src/chpasswd.c, src/chgpasswd.c: Add option -c, --crypt-method
and -s, --sha-rounds to specify the crypt method and number of
rounds in case of one of the SHA methods. The new prototype of
crypt_make_salt simplifies the handling of -m, --md5.
bytes).
* lib/getdef.c, etc/login.defs: Add definitions for
SHA_CRYPT_MIN_ROUNDS and SHA_CRYPT_MAX_ROUNDS.
* libmisc/salt.c: Use SHA_CRYPT_MIN_ROUNDS and SHA_CRYPT_MAX_ROUNDS
to add a random number of rounds if needed.
is then used with strcat).
* libmisc/salt.c (crypt_make_salt): Initialize result[0] to nul at
the beginning (was not initialized when USE_PAM).
* libmisc/salt.c (crypt_make_salt): Check that ENCRYPT_METHOD is a
valid crypt method.
shadow-4.0.18.1-sha256.patch. Thanks to Peter Vrabec. Hardly no changes
except re-indent and changes related to recent modifications (max_salt_len
in crypt_make_salt). Changes in lib/defines.h not applied (definition of
ENCRYPTMETHOD_SELECT). I will add a configure check or flag.
right place (either 8th, or 11th position).
* NEWS, src/chgpasswd.c, src/chpasswd.c: The protocol + salt does
not need 15 chars. No need for a temporary buffer.
This change the fix committed on 2007-11-10. The salt provided to
pw_encrypt could have been too long.
