Excuse me if I got something wrong and this is all bogus.
The Horde_Auth_Sql driver provides account password expiration in a
soft (warn) and hard (lock) flavour.
To me this feature looks totally broken in Horde 4.
1) The migration file creates the soft and hard timestamp fields as
signed int 11 rather than unsigned. (tested on mysql)
2) The calculation routine produces a negative value for the soft and
hard expiration timestamp. This means users changing password
immediately expired accounts if it wasn't for 5)
3) The hard expiration timestamp is calculated via soft_expiration_window.
4) The hard expiration timestamp is completely ignored if soft
expiration is not configured - is this intended? The calculation of
hard_expiration_date at least looks a little like this could be true -
but see 3)
5) If hard expiration is configured, changing users is completely
broken because the generated SQL has more values than fields (or other
way around, the last value is treated as a key).
6) The addUser routine doesn't initialize these additional fields. As
a result, all accounts last forever until the user changes credentials
for the first time.
I have checked this against 1.0.4 after I had initial issues with git,
where I checked in my own additions today.
What puzzles me is the math bit. I think it dates back to horde3 and I
doubt it could be broken for so long without anybody noticing.
I think I can fix this as I'm working on #10387 already.
Just want somebody to verify I'm not chasing my very own installation
troubles.
