  65937   Wed Jul 30 19:54:28 2008 Entry Alan Stonealstone@fnal.govBug reportLinux2.7.4-2113Exploit Browser Tabs to Make Anonymous Entries

One of my shifters just managed to make an anonymous logbook entry even though the Author attribute is required.

It turns out that he had two tabs in his browser opened/logged into the Elog.  He logged out in one tab only.   Then he

did some other work on the desktop.  Then he returned to the browser to make a new logbook entry, finding the tab which

still showed the logged in menu, including the link for "New".  The Shifer is on day two, so he did not give any special

notice to seeing Anonymous in the Author field instead of his name.  He did point it out when I came in, and noted that

no warning was given about making an anonymous entry.

 

I tested the same scenario myself.  One cannot preview an anonymous entry (when Author field is a required attribute).

A warning is given.  However, one can submit the anonymous entry, and no warning is given.

I get the following error where thumbnails should go: Cannot create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation.

I restarted elog and check the log, it does in fact detect ImageMagick and it does have the most recent version. I'm running ubuntu 2.6.24-19-server.  Is there something else I should be checking?

 Try the following:

  • Put logfile = elog.log into your elogd.cfg
  • Upload an image to get the error
  • Examine your elog.log file

You should get something like:

23-Jul-2008 15:10:38 [] Server listening on port 8080 ..

In your logfile. Now try the "convert" command manually under the same account elogd is running. Possible reasons for problems are:

  • The "convert" command is not in your path or links to another program. Unfortunately ImageMagick chose a pretty standard name for this program
  • The account under which elogd is running does not have write access to the logbook directory
  • converts wants to call ghostscript for PDF conversion, but it is not installed
  • ...

Type Reporter = useremail
Preset Reporter = $user_email

 This was a bug. I fixed it in SVN revision 2118.
