💖 shishi_kdcreq_proxy_p(3) — the shishi manual, section 3 💖

okay bestie, sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, because we're about to learn whether a Kerberos request is out here asking to be a proxy. yes it's niche. yes it's iconic. let's go 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

shishi_kdcreq_proxy_p — it's an API function, bestie. that's the whole name card 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <shishi.h>

int shishi_kdcreq_proxy_p(Shishi * handle, Shishi_asn1 kdcreq);

two args, one int back. clean. no notes. ✨

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • Shishi * handle — the shishi handle, and you gotta get it the legit way, as allocated by shishi_init(). don't be out here passing vibes, pass the handle 🫶
  • Shishi_asn1 kdcreq — the KDC-REQ variable we're pulling the kdc-options field out of. that's the one we're snooping on 👀

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so the whole job of this function? it determines if the KDC-Option proxy flag is set. that's it. that's the gig. 🎯

now let's talk about what the PROXY option means, because it's lowkey important:

The PROXY option says "hey, this is a request for a proxy."

and here's the catch, the fine print, the "read the room" moment: this option will only be honored if the ticket-granting ticket in the request has its PROXIABLE bit set. no bit, no proxy. that's the rule, no cap. 🔥

and where do you say which hosts the resulting ticket should be valid from? the address(es) of the host go in the addresses field of the request. that's literally where they live. put them there, don't improvise 💀

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

Returns non-0 iff the proxy flag is set in KDC-REQ. so: truthy = yes she's proxying, zero = nope. fr fr 🌈
