kandi X-RAY | nss_http Summary

nss_http is a C library typically used in Networking, HTTP applications. nss_http has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

This is a simple Name Service Switch module that I wrote in order to quickly extend nss via an HTTP server that runs on localhost. This is seriously not meant to be used in a production environment. Not only is it inefficient but I'm extremely rusty with C and there are likely overflow errors and other security problems. Use at your own enjoyment.

Compiling NSS module in Docker Alpine - fatal error: nss.h: No such file or directory

QUESTION

Compiling NSS module in Docker Alpine - fatal error: nss.h: No such file or directory

Asked 2020-Jun-22 at 18:21

I built a SSH bastion image which allows customers to plug themselves over reverse SSH (both of them has an assigned port thanks to permitopen clause on authorized keys). I achieved this through a generic account which handles all public keys. Those keys are dynamically retrieved through a BASH script which pulls them from a HTTP server (AuthorizedKeysCommand SSHD option).

My issue comes from the bastion's userbase which I would like being dynamic too (instead of having a generic user). To do that, I need a HTTP NSS module which does not exist as a native package, so I have to build it myself.

As a beginning, I found this project https://github.com/gmjosack/nss_http

Before updating the source code according to my needs, I'm trying to compile it in a sandbox image but I'm facing this compilation error
