mod_auth_cyrus: Add empty 'profile' table to SASL handler objects
This is for compatibility with Prosody's built-in util.sasl objects.
A SASL profile table usually includes methods supported by the backend, which
can be used by SASL mechanism handlers to perform operations (such as testing
the password). It also optionally contains a 'cb' field with channel binding
method handlers.
The Cyrus backend doesn't support channel binding, and doesn't have the same
concept of auth backend methods (it handles all that internally, and Prosody
has no insight or control over it).
Thus, we create an empty profile which informs Prosody that the SASL handler
does not support any of the auth or channel binding methods. Some features
will not work, but they didn't work anyway. This just makes it explicit.
This fixes a traceback in mod_sasl2_fast, which expected SASL handlers to
always contain a 'profile' field.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Beta' summary: 'Mark some network interfaces (e.g. loopback/LAN) as always secure' ... Introduction ============ Sometimes you might run clients without encryption on the same machine or LAN as Prosody - and you want Prosody to treat them as secure (e.g. allowing plaintext authentication) even though they are not encrypted. This module allows you to tell Prosody which of the current server's interfaces (IP addresses) that you consider to be on secure networks. Configuration ============= Configuration is simple, just load the module like any other by adding it to your modules\_enabled list: modules_enabled = { ... "secure_interfaces"; ... } Then set the list of secure interfaces (just make sure it is set in the global section of your config file, and **not** under a VirtualHost or Component): secure_interfaces = { "127.0.0.1", "::1", "192.168.1.54" } Compatibility ============= ------- --------- 0.9 Works 0.8 Unknown trunk Works ------- ---------
