NAME

Authen::SASL::Perl::GSSAPI - GSSAPI (Kerberosv5) Authentication class  

SYNOPSIS

  use Authen::SASL qw(Perl);

  $sasl = Authen::SASL->new( mechanism => 'GSSAPI' );

  $sasl = Authen::SASL->new( mechanism => 'GSSAPI',
                             callback => { pass => $mycred });

  $sasl->client_start( $service, $host );

 

DESCRIPTION

This method implements the client part of the GSSAPI SASL algorithm, as described in RFC 2222 section 7.2.1 resp. draft-ietf-sasl-gssapi-XX.txt.

With a valid Kerberos 5 credentials cache (aka TGT) it allows to connect to service@host given as the first two parameters to Authen::SASL's client_start() method. Alternatively, a GSSAPI::Cred object can be passed in via the Authen::SASL callback hash using the `pass' key.

Please note that this module does not currently implement a SASL security layer following authentication. Unless the connection is protected by other means, such as TLS, it will be vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks. If security layers are required, then the Authen::SASL::XS GSSAPI module should be used instead.  

CALLBACK

The callbacks used are:
authname
The authorization identity to be used in SASL exchange
gssmech
The GSS mechanism to be used in the connection
pass
The GSS credentials to be used in the connection (optional)
 

EXAMPLE

 #! /usr/bin/perl -w

 use strict;

 use Net::LDAP 0.33;
 use Authen::SASL 2.10;

 # -------- Adjust to your environment --------
 my $adhost      = 'theserver.bla.net';
 my $ldap_base   = 'dc=bla,dc=net';
 my $ldap_filter = '(&(sAMAccountName=BLAAGROL))';

 my $sasl = Authen::SASL->new(mechanism => 'GSSAPI');
 my $ldap;

 eval {
     $ldap = Net::LDAP->new($adhost,
                            onerror => 'die')
       or  die "Cannot connect to LDAP host '$adhost': '$@'";
     $ldap->bind(sasl => $sasl);
 };

 if ($@) {
     chomp $@;
     die   "\nBind error         : $@",
           "\nDetailed SASL error: ", $sasl->error,
           "\nTerminated";
 }

 print "\nLDAP bind() succeeded, working in authenticated state";

 my $mesg = $ldap->search(base   => $ldap_base,
                          filter => $ldap_filter);

 # -------- evaluate $mesg

 

PROPERTIES

The properties used are:
maxbuf
The maximum buffer size for receiving cipher text
minssf
The minimum SSF value that should be provided by the SASL security layer. The default is 0
maxssf
The maximum SSF value that should be provided by the SASL security layer. The default is 2**31
externalssf
The SSF value provided by an underlying external security layer. The default is 0
ssf
The actual SSF value provided by the SASL security layer after the SASL authentication phase has been completed. This value is read-only and set by the implementation after the SASL authentication phase has been completed.
maxout
The maximum plaintext buffer size for sending data to the peer. This value is set by the implementation after the SASL authentication phase has been completed and a SASL security layer is in effect.
