From 91f0abfda1709131edbd62ad3515da2b8e6c0261 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Bellinger Date: Wed, 28 May 2014 12:07:40 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] iscsi-target: Reject zero-length payloads during SecurityNegotiation This patch changes iscsi_target_handle_csg_zero() to explicitly reject login requests in SecurityNegotiation with a zero-length payload, following the language in RFC-3720 Section 8.2: Whenever an iSCSI target gets a response whose keys, or their values, are not according to the step definition, it MUST answer with a Login reject with the "Initiator Error" or "Missing Parameter" status. Previously when a zero-length login request in CSG=0 was received, the target would send a login response with CSG=0 + T_BIT=0 asking the initiator to complete authentication, and not fail the login until MAX_LOGIN_PDUS was reached. This change will now immediately fail the login attempt with ISCSI_STATUS_CLS_INITIATOR_ERR status.
