The part of process_krb5_upcall that handles non-machine user creds
first tries to query GSSAPI for credentials. If that fails, it then
falls back to trawling through likely credcache locations to find them
and then points $KRB5CCNAME at it before proceeding. There are a number
of bugs in this code that this patch attempts to address.
The code that queries GSSAPI for credentials does it as root and that
almost universally fails to do anything useful unless we happen to be
looking for non-machine root creds. Because of this, gssd almost always
falls back to having to search for credcaches "manually" and then set
$KRB5CCNAME if and when they are found. The code that handles credential
switching is in create_auth_rpc_client, so it's too late to be of any
use here.
Worse yet, the GSSAPI code that handles finding credcaches does it based
on the return from getuid(), so just switching the fsuid or even euid is
insufficient. You must switch the real uid.
This code moves the credential switching into process_krb5_upcall and
makes it use setuid() instead of setfsuid(). That's of course
irreversible so we can't switch back to root after doing so. No matter
though since it's probably safer to do all of this as an unprivileged
user anyway.
