| Summary | 0006599: TKL/GLINE ~account matching fails when the value contains a colon (:) | ||||
| Description | I have found a bug where extended bans (specifically ~account) fail to enforce the ban if the account name itself contains a colon. When I add a GLINE for an account containing a colon (e.g., ~account:prefix:value), the server accepts the command and the ban appears correctly in the GLINE list. However, the ban is ineffective: a user logging in with that exact account name is not disconnected. Use Case Context: We use a specific account naming convention for users without reserved nicknames, where the account field is a hash prefixed by a: (e.g., a:1a2b3c...). It is used mainly to avoid any personal information disclosure (email). This description was redacted with an IA. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Identify or create a user with an account name containing a colon (e.g., test:user). Add a GLINE targeting this account: /gline ~account:test:user 0 Testing bug Verify the ban is added: /gline (The ban appears correctly in the list). Connect with a client using the account test:user. Observed Result: The user successfully connects and is not disconnected by the GLINE. Expected Result: The user should be disconnected immediately due to the match. | ||||

I cannot reproduce this on 6.2.2. You say you are on 6.1.10. Can you retry with latest release? As oper I do: GLINE ~account:some:account 5m testing Client connects, called "h5667". Then from a server (raw server traffic): SVSLOGIN * h5667 some:account Result: :maintest.test.net 465 h5667 :You are not welcome on this network. G-Lined: testing. Email [email protected] for more information. :maintest.test.net NOTICE h5667 :You are not welcome on this network. G-Lined: testing. Email [email protected] for more information. ERROR :Closing Link: h5667[192.168.xx.xx] (Banned (G-Lined): testing) |

Hello Sorry, I must have been half asleep... You're right, in fact I made a mistake in the GLINE syntax creation. Sorry for that, after double check, everything is working in 6.1.10 |
