OS Name/Version: CentOS Linux 7.9 Crafting a parser function file in a particular way causes most future catalog compilations to fail across all environments after the function is executed once, until puppetserver is restarted. To reproduce, create a file in lib/puppet/parser/functions/bork.rb with the following contents: module Puppet
module Parser
module Functions
newfunction(
:bork,
type: :rvalue,
doc: 'B0rks the puppetserver'
) do |args|
return true
end
end
end
end Then have an agent manifest call the `bork()` function. Observe most future puppet runs fail, even for other nodes in other environments that previously worked before. The error frequently seen is: Error 500 on SERVER: Server Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, undefined method `[]' for Puppet::Pops::Loader::RubyLegacyFunctionInstantiator::Puppet:Module Desired Behavior: Catalog fails for the invalid parser function, and other catalogs work fine. Actual Behavior: Most future catalog compilations fail, even for unrelated nodes in other environments that previously worked before the `bork()` function was called. The following simple catalog is known to fail, where it previous works: include stdlib $test = pick($puppetmaster, $::fqdn) |
