In Python 3, the base64.b64decode function raises binascii.Error (a ValueError subclass) when it finds incorrect padding. In Python 2 it raises TypeError. Callers should usually handle ValueError; unless they are specifically concerned with handling base64 padding issues). In some cases, callers should handle ValueError: - ipalib.pkcs10 (get_friendlyname, load_certificate_request): callers should handle ValueError - ipalib.x509 (load_certificate*, get_*): callers should handle ValueError In other cases ValueError is handled: - ipalib.parameters - ipapython.ssh - ipalib.rpc (json_decode_binary - callers already expect ValueError) - ipaserver.install.ldapupdate Elsewhere no error handling is done, because values come from trusted sources, or are pre-validated: - vault plugin - ipaserver.install.cainstance - ipaserver.install.certs - ipaserver.install.ipa_otptoken_import Reviewed-By: Tomas Babej <tbabej@redhat.com>
This is a set of libraries common to IPA clients and servers though mostly
geared currently towards command-line tools.
A brief overview:
config.py - identify the IPA server domain and realm. It uses python-dns to
try to detect this information first and will fall back to
/etc/ipa/default.conf if that fails.
ipautil.py - helper functions
entity.py - entity is the main data type. User and Group extend this class
(but don't add anything currently).
ipavalidate.py - basic data validation routines
