From ca59dfa6f727fe3bf3a01904ec30e87f7fa5a67e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Tue, 21 Jun 2011 14:41:05 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Apply upstream fix for blowfish signed-character bug (CVE-2011-2483). A password containing a character with the high bit set was misprocessed on machines where char is signed (which is most). This could cause the preceding one to three characters to fail to affect the hashed result, thus weakening the password. The result was also unportable, and failed to match some other blowfish implementations such as OpenBSD's. Since the fix changes the output for such passwords, upstream chose to provide a compatibility hack: password salts beginning with $2x$ (instead of the usual $2a$ for blowfish) are intentionally processed "wrong" to give the same hash as before. Stored password hashes can thus be modified if necessary to still match, though it'd be better to change any affected passwords. In passing, sync a couple other upstream changes that marginally improve performance and/or tighten error checking. Back-patch to all supported branches. Since this issue is already public, no reason not to commit the fix ASAP. --- contrib/pgcrypto/crypt-blowfish.c | 26 ++++++++++++++++---------- contrib/pgcrypto/px-crypt.c | 1 + 2 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/contrib/pgcrypto/crypt-blowfish.c b/contrib/pgcrypto/crypt-blowfish.c index a7b7e758ff..eebf1877cf 100644 --- a/contrib/pgcrypto/crypt-blowfish.c +++ b/contrib/pgcrypto/crypt-blowfish.c @@ -5,8 +5,8 @@ * and crypt(3) interfaces added, but optimizations specific to password * cracking removed. * - * Written by Solar Designer in 1998-2001, and placed - * in the public domain. + * Written by Solar Designer in 1998-2002 and + * placed in the public domain. * * There's absolutely no warranty. * @@ -19,9 +19,9 @@ * of your choice. * * This implementation is compatible with OpenBSD bcrypt.c (version 2a) - * by Niels Provos , and uses some of his - * ideas.
