Subject: BUG #17740: Connecting postgresql 13 with different psql versions
Date: Mon, 09 Jan 2023 08:25:45 +0000
Message-ID: <17740-f9e629897b58b2c3@postgresql.org> (raw)

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      17740
Logged by:          Anbu
Email address:      gopi.anbumech@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 13.8
Operating system:   linux
Description:        

For GSSAPI Kerberos external authenticated connections, it appears that psql
v13 is not honouring order of the rules specified in pg_hba.conf. Will there
be any difference in way/options with which psql binary has been built ?

With following entries in pg_hba.conf, psql v13 is prompting for password
for Kerberos connections, whereas psql v11 succeeds connecting without any
issue.

local all pgbkp peer map=pgbackrest
hostssl all +citi_pg_app_read 0.0.0.0/0 gss map=krb
host all all 0.0.0.0/0 scram-sha-256

[kdc_test_fid@icl-actpsql-vm1 /psql13]$ psql -U app_kdc_test_fid -h x.x.x -d
postgres -p 1524
Password for user app_kdc_test_fid:

[kdc_test_fid@icl-actpsql-vm1 /psql11]$ psql -U app_kdc_test_fid -h x.x.x -d
postgres -p 1524
psql (11.13, server 13.8)

But as soon as the this line is commented out in pg_hba.conf, GSSAPI
Kerberos external authenticated connection succeeds for both psql V13 and
v11.
