Fix bug where pam_u2f options would be partially included in other pam.d
files if the module was enable for specific services, resulting in
broken configuration.
Previously, `pam_unix.so` was `required` to set PAM_AUTHTOK so that
dependent pam modules (such as gnome keyering) could use the password
(for example to unlock a keyring) upon login of the user. This however
broke any additional auth providers (such as AD or LDAP): for any
non-local user `pam_unix.so` will not yield success, thus eventually the
auth would fail (even the following auth providers were actually
executed, they could not overrule the already failed auth).
This change replaces `required` by `optional`. Therefore, the
`pam_unix.so` is executed and can set the PAM_AUTHTOK for the following
optional modules, _even_ if the user is not a local user. Therefore, the
gnome keyring for example is unlocked both for local and additional
users upon login, and login is working for non-local users via
LDAP/AD.
pam-ussh allows authorizing using an SSH certificate stored in your
SSH agent, in a similar manner to pam-ssh-agent-auth, but for
certificates rather than raw public keys.
When running e.g. `aa-genprof` get error:
> ERROR: Syntax Error: Unknown line found in file /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/pam line 26:
> r /nix/store/XXXXX.pam,mr /nix/store/XXXXX-linux-pam-1.5.1/lib/security/pam_filter/*,
So add an explicit newline as concatMapStringsSep only adds them
between.
pam_mkhomedir should create homedirs with the same umask as the rest
of the system. Currently it creates homedirs with go+rx which makes
it readable for other non-privileged users.
nixos-rebuild test causes pam_mount to prompt for a password when running with
an encrypted home:
building '/nix/store/p6bflh7n5zy2dql8l45mix9qnzq65hbk-nixos-system-mildred-18.09.git.98592c5da79M.drv'...
activating the configuration...
setting up /etc...
reenter password for pam_mount:

(mount.c:72): crypt_activate_by_passphrase: File exists
(pam_mount.c:522): mount of /dev/mapper/vg0-lv_home_peter failed

This change makes pam_mount not prompt. It still tries to remount (and fails in
the process) but that message can be ignored.
Fixes: #44586
Currently if fprintd is enabled, pam will ask for fingerprint
regardless of other configured authentication modules (e.g. yubikey).
This change make fingerprint the last resort of authentication before asking for password.
For in NixOS it is beneficial if both plasma5 and pam use the same Qt5
version. Because the plasma5 desktop may use a different version as the
default Qt5 version, we introduce plasma5Packages.
This reverts commit fb6d63f3fd.
I really hope this finally fixes#99236: evaluation on Hydra.
This time I really did check basically the same commit on Hydra:
https://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1618011
Right now I don't have energy to find what exactly is wrong in the
commit, and it doesn't seem important in comparison to nixos-unstable
channel being stuck on a commit over one week old.
9544c6078e / #96672 removed the samba option
`syncPasswordsByPam`.
Need to remove this option from the pam module, otherwise it will cause build errors
This patch was done by curro:
The generated /etc/pam.d/* service files invoke the pam_systemd.so
session module before pam_mount.so, if both are enabled (e.g. via
security.pam.services.foo.startSession and
security.pam.services.foo.pamMount respectively).
This doesn't work in the most common scenario where the user's home
directory is stored in a pam-mounted encrypted volume (because systemd
will fail to access the user's systemd configuration).
A centralized list for these renames is not good because:
- It breaks disabledModules for modules that have a rename defined
- Adding/removing renames for a module means having to find them in the
central file
- Merge conflicts due to multiple people editing the central file
In #68792 it was discovered that /dev/fuse doesn't have
wordl-read-writeable permissions anymore. The cause of this is that the
tmpfiles examples in systemd were reorganized and split into more files.
We thus lost some of the configuration we were depending on.
In this commit some of the new tmpfiles configuration that are
applicable to us are added which also makes wtmp/lastlog in the pam
module not necessary anymore.
Rationale for the new tmpfile configs:
- `journal-nowcow.conf`: Contains chattr +C for journald logs which
makes sense on copy-on-write filesystems like Btrfs. Other filesystems
shouldn't do anything funny when that flag is set.
- `static-nodes-permissions.conf`: Contains some permission overrides
for some device nodes like audio, loop, tun, fuse and kvm.
- `systemd-nspawn.conf`: Makes sure `/var/lib/machines` exists and old
snapshots are properly removed.
- `systemd-tmp.conf`: Removes systemd services related private tmp
folders and temporary coredump files.
- `var.conf`: Creates some useful directories in `/var` which we would
create anyway at some point. Also includes
`/var/log/{wtmp,btmp,lastlog}`.
Fixes#68792.
Having pam_unix set to "sufficient" means early-succeeding account
management group, as soon as pam_unix.so is succeeding.
This is not sufficient. For example, nixos modules might install nss
modules for user lookup, so pam_unix.so succeeds, and we end the stack
successfully, even though other pam account modules might want to do
more extensive checks.
Other distros seem to set pam_unix.so to 'required', so if there are
other pam modules in that management group, they get a chance to do some
validation too.
For SSSD, @PsyanticY already added a workaround knob in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/31969, while stating this should
be the default anyway.
I did some thinking in what could break - after this commit, we require
pam_unix to succeed, means we require `getent passwd $username` to
return something.
This is the case for all local users due to the passwd nss module, and
also the case for all modules installing their nss module to
nsswitch.conf - true for ldap (if not explicitly disabled) and sssd.
I'm not so sure about krb5, cc @eqyiel for opinions. Is there some nss
module loaded? Should the pam account module be placed before pam_unix?
We don't drop the `security.pam.services.<name?>.sssdStrictAccess`
option, as it's also used some lines below to tweak error behaviour
inside the pam sssd module itself (by changing it's 'control' field).
This is also required to get admin login for Google OS Login working
(#51566), as their pam_oslogin_admin accounts module takes care of sudo
configuration.
I think pam_lastlog is the only thing that writes to these files in
practice on a modern Linux system, so in a configuration that doesn't
use that module, we don't need to create these files.
I used tmpfiles.d instead of activation snippets to create the logs.
It's good enough for upstream and other distros; it's probably good
enough for us.
* bemenu: init at 2017-02-14

* orbment, velox: don't expose subprojects
the development of orbment and velox got stuck
their subprojects (bemenu, dmenu-wayland, st-wayland) don't work correctly outside of parent projects
so hide them to not confuse people
swc and wld libraries are unpopular and unlike wlc are not used by anything except velox

Looking at upstream git repo (git://github.com/Yubico/pam-u2f.git) the
docs initially said the path was ~/.yubico/u2f_keys, but it was later
changed to ~/.config/Yubico/u2f_keys (in 2015).
I have run pam_u2f.so with "debug" option and observed that the correct
path indeed is ~/.config/Yubico/u2f_keys.
Currently, ecryptfs support is coupled to `security.pam.enableEcryptfs`, but one
might want to use ecryptfs without enabling the PAM functionality. This commit
splits it out into a `boot.supportedFilesystems` switch.
