Critical Description
As far as I understand, the assumption is that g_krb5_ctx is global, shared and it should not be modified after initialization. However, various code in kudu::security make calls to some Kerberos code which may make modification to g_krb5_ctx inadvertently.
The default initialization code krb5_init_context(&g_krb5_ctx) called by kudu::security::InitKrb5Ctx() only sets g_krb5_ctx->default_realm to 0. Upon the first call to krb5_parse_name(), the Kerberos library will call krb5_get_default_realm() to get the default realm as realm is NULL:
krb5_error_code KRB5_CALLCONV
krb5_get_default_realm(krb5_context context, char **realm_out)
{
krb5_error_code ret;
*realm_out = NULL;
if (context == NULL || context->magic != KV5M_CONTEXT)
return KV5M_CONTEXT;
if (context->default_realm == NULL) {
ret = get_default_realm(context, &context->default_realm); <<<----- // non-thread safe call
if (ret)
return ret;
}
*realm_out = strdup(context->default_realm);
return (*realm_out == NULL) ? ENOMEM : 0;
}
Apparently, krb5_get_default_realm may modify g_krb5_context but it's not thread safe. So, if multiple negotiation threads get into the same code path of calling krb5_get_default_realm() at the same time, they may end up stepping on each other and corrupting g_krb5_ctx, leading to the crash seen in stack trace below or error messages like the following:
0216 14:26:07.459600 (+ 296us) negotiation.cc:304] Negotiation complete: Runtime error: Server connection negotiation failed: server connection from X.X.X.X:37070: could not canonicalize krb5 principal: could not parse principal: Configuration file does not specify default realm
