-user can bog down all requests by hammering it with bad auth requests causing
|
|
|
|
the auth facility to get bogged down in PBKDF
|
|
|
|
Option:
|
|
|
|
-a multiprocessing pool to handle new authentications. The auth action
|
|
|
|
itself would be stalled out whilst an attack was underway, but once
|
|
|
|
in, the respective session layers will provide a caching session that
|
|
|
|
should accelerate things after the client gets in once
|
|
|
|
-penalizing a client clearly trying to break in
|

|
-other auth
|
|
|
|
-pam if user exists but has no passphrase
|
|
|
|
-keystone?
|
|
|
|
-ad? (specialized to the AD case)

-expressionkeys never gets smaller - perf impact

|
-When a user account is changed, have httpapi and sockapi notified of changes
|
|
|
|
to kill off related sessions. password changes are given a pass, but user
|
|
|
|
deletion will result in immediate session termination
|
2014-03-01 15:48:08 +00:00
|
|
|
-need event notification for config change- e.g. set attribute triggers consol
|
|
|
|
session object check to see if credentials changed
|
2014-03-02 18:05:19 +00:00
|
|
|
design is that calling code on init registers a callback for related node to
|
|
|
|
the in-context config manager object. callback shall be OO so no context
|
|
|
|
object parametr passed in. ipmi will use it for user/password/hardwaremanagement.manager
|
|
|
|
changes to console and command objects. console will use it to hook add/deletion
|
|
|
|
of nodes and/or indicating a different console.method or hardwaremanagement.method
|

|
|
|
-When the time comes to dole out configuration/discovery, take page from xCAT
|
|
|
|
'flexdiscover' command, if possible bring an ipmi device under management
|
|
|
|
by way of ipv6 to eliminate requirement for ip to be specified.
|
|
|
|
Requires the polling event support (which is required for security anyway)

|
-Change the remote timeout behavior to yield a response, then have pluginapi
|
|
|
|
decides whether to error the response or a message indicating error in case of
|
|
|
|
multi-node request
