Full Freeze on Ubuntu 17.10 / 18.04 when yubikey is on USB #80
Comments

This sounds odd, the gui polls the YubiKey every second to see if it's still there, nothing else ongoing and certainly nothing that should freeze the system. Have you tried the tools from the yubikey-personalization package (ykpersonalize, ykinfo & ykchalresp) do they cause similar problems? |
|
More than one app trying to get EXCLUSIVE access to the token and not accepting "No" for the answer??? |
|
hi @klali the cmd tools work fine. Just the |
|
@mouse07410 this is a clean install, no apps trying to use it. |
|
How about OS drivers, an analog of pivtoken on Mac (assuming there's such a thing on Linux), GnuPG components? |
|
On linux everything uses the Kernel Module, it loads as a HID device and yubikey-personalization uses it (as cmd tools). The CMD tools works fine, just the personalization gui that frezes everything. I configured using the CMD tools and now I'm using it to login on my linux. Everything is working fine, but I can't open the GUI with the yubikey plugged in. |
|
I have the same issue on mint 19.0 (ubuntu 18.04 base) and have seen the freezes no previous ubuntu installs. The issue popsup when I open the personalization tool and insert a Yubikey. |
|
Ok, so just for logging purpose, it freezes because it starts restarting the device every half second: Not sure why this happens though, it keeps like that until I kill the yubikey-personalization-gui. |
|
Very interesting. What version of Neo is this with? |
|
Well, not sure. But its a recent one (have few months maybe) |
|
Application Version: 3.1.24 |
|
Same issue here on Linux Mint 19. Application Version: 3.1.24 Tested using two Yubikeys 4 with firmware 4.3.1 and 4.3.7. |
|
Same issue here on Fedora 28 with YubiKey NEO. Lots of dmesg outputs. With the application open, it freezes as soon as I plug the Yubkey in, and it unfreezes a few seconds after it is pulled out. No actual operations are able to be executed in the key. Application Version: 3.1.24 |
|
Same here on Ubuntu 18.04 with YubiKey 4 Application Version: 3.1.25 |
|
#82 Application Version: 3.1.25 YK5NFC 5.1.2 |
|
Also affects me. |
|
This is what appears in my syslog every second when I have the yubikey inserted into an USB port and open the personalization software: Apr 11 10:03:12 hostname upowerd[26104]: unhandled action 'bind' on /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-5/1-5.2/1-5.2:1.0/0003:1050:0403.0068 |
|
I'm seeing intermittent lockups generally on a xubuntu 20.04 desktop and it's possible there's some correlation with applications polling my yubikey - I see the repeated messages in the kernel log shown here .. any pointers? |
|
Same here. Linux Mint 20.3 + Cinnamon |
|
It still happens on Ubuntu 22.04, although the application is sort of usable on it (it doesnt freeze the whole OS because you accidentally opened yubikey personalization gui). |

Here I get a full UI frezze (the entire gnome shell, not just yubikey personalization gui) when I have the
yubikey-personalization-guiand the yubikey on the usb port.Today I just reinstalled from scratch my linux, now I have a clean Ubuntu 18.04 and the issue still persists.
The gui works fine until I put the yubikey on the USB, it also starts working again when I remove from the USB. The gui correctly detects the yubikey before frezzing.
Not sure how this can even be possible, but it happens even on a fresh install. I have a NEO.
I tried to build from source code, the problem persists.
Info:
I also tried through a USB 2.0 hub, got the same issue. The yubikey works fine in any other application (even as login on linux)
