#3585 Reset password with two factor authentication fails
Closed: Fixed 6 years ago Opened 6 years ago by hicksaw.

In the case where a user has an expired password and an OTP token for second factor set, the user can not reset their password.

The expected outcome is that a user with an expired password and a valid token connects to a host via ssh is that pre-auth will discover that the user has an expired password and an OTP token from the directory (we use FreeIPA), then the user authorises with only the expired password, goes through the password reset process, and is then disconnected.

What happens is the user connects via ssh, is asked for their password, then the Current Password: prompt appears, fails and returns to the password: prompt. The password reset fails. So all connections are locked out.

Pretty sure it's a case covered by the TODO here: https://pagure.io/SSSD/sssd/blob/master/f/src/providers/ipa/ipa_auth.c#_395
