SMB3 Server written entirely in Rust
a project by dmulder
Updated 19 days ago. No love. 1 follower.

Description

Given the number of bugs frequently discovered in the Samba code caused by memory issues, it makes sense to re-write the smbd service purely in Rust code. Meanwhile, it would be wise to abandon backwards compatibility here with insecure protocol versions, and simply implement the SMB3 spec.

Goals

Get a simple server up and running and get it merged into upstream Samba (which now has Rust build support).

    Modularization and Modernization of cifs.ko for Enhanced SMB Protocol Support by hcarvalho

    Creator:
    Enzo Matsumiya ematsumiya@suse.de @ SUSE Samba team
    Members:
    Henrique Carvalho henrique.carvalho@suse.com @ SUSE Samba team

    Description

    Split cifs.ko in 2 separate modules; one for SMB 1.0 and 2.0.x, and another for SMB 2.1, 3.0, and 3.1.1.

    Goals

    Primary

    Start phasing out/deprecation of older SMB versions

    Secondary

    • Clean up of the code (with focus on the newer versions)
    • Update cifs-utils
    • Update documentation
    • Improve backport workflow (see below)

    Technical details

    Ideas for the implementation.

    • fs/smb/client/{old,new}.c to generate the respective modules
      • Maybe don't create separate folders? (re-evaluate as things progresses!)
    • Remove server->{ops,vals} if possible
    • Clean up fs_context.* -- merge duplicate options into one, handle them in userspace utils
    • Reduce code in smb2pdu.c -- tons of functions with very similar init/setup -> send/recv -> handle/free flow
    • Restructure multichannel
      • Treat initial connection as "channel 0" regardless of multichannel enabled/negotiated status, proceed with extra channels accordingly
      • Extra channel just point to "channel 0" as the primary server, no need to allocate an extra TCPServerInfo for each one
    • Authentication mechanisms
      • Modernize algorithms (references: himmelblau, IAKERB/Local KDC, SCRAM, oauth2 (Azure), etc.

    Better diff'ing experience by MSirringhaus

    Description

    For diff-ing directories, I usually like to use meld, but it struggles a lot with large trees. Experiment with writing a TUI meld-clone for diffing directories and files

    Goals

    Get first prototype going of a TUI that can show

    • diffs of text-files
    • diffs of directories.

    Stretch goals

    • Themes
    • Filters (no whitespace, etc.)
    • Live config changes (Show/hide line numbers, etc.)

    Kanidm: A safe and modern IDM system by firstyear

    Kanidm is an IDM system written in Rust for modern systems authentication. The github repo has a detailed "getting started" on the readme.

    Kanidm Github

    In addition Kanidm has spawn a number of adjacent projects in the Rust ecosystem such as LDAP, Kerberos, Webauthn, and cryptography libraries.

    In this hack week, we'll be working on Quokca, a certificate authority that supports PKCS11/TPM storage of keys, issuance of PIV certificates, and ACME without the feature gatekeeping implemented by other CA's like smallstep.

    For anyone who wants to participate in Kanidm, we have documentation and developer guides which can help.

    I'm happy to help and share more, so please get in touch!

    Grapesss: a physical Shamir's Secret Sharing application [ESP32-C3 + Mobile] by ecandino

    drawing

    Description

    A couple of years ago I created StegoSecretS, a small cli used to encrypt and split a secret into multiple keys, using the Shamir's Secret Sharing algorithm.

    The idea is to re-implement the project using physical devices. One device alone will be useless, but when close together they can be used to decrypt the secret.

    On a practical side the user encrypts the secret with a mobile application. The same application is used to split the secret, and load the partial keys into different micro-controllers. Another user will be able to decrypt the secret only having at least N devices close together (using the application).

    I'm planning to use a couple of ESP32-C3 I bought, and build a very simple Android mobile application.

    Goals

    • Learn about Rust and micro-controllers (ESP32-C3)
    • Learn about mobile applications (Android and Kotlin)
