Sounds like this is a followon to #6802. Is this really critical at this point? We really need to close the window on RE24 patches so we can actually cut a release. But if ITS#6802 is actually incomplete, I guess we should roll this in. > These patch files are derived from OpenLDAP Software.

(ITS#6813) Error in ldap_int_connect_cbs call from ldap_connect_to_host
by ipuleston＠sonicwall.com 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

Full_Name: Ian Puleston Version: 2.4.23 OS: VxWorks URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ Submission from: (NULL) (67.115.118.5) In function ldap_connect_to_host are two calls to ldap_int_connect_cbs. The first for "#if defined( HAVE_GETADDRINFO ) && defined( HAVE_INET_NTOP )" looks OK, but the 2nd for the #else case of that is this: i = ldap_int_connect_cbs( ld, sb, &s, srv, (struct sockaddr *)&sin ); if ( i ) rc = i; else break; But this is inside a for loop that uses i as a counter for the loop control. ldap_int_connect_cbs returns an error code so, unless I'm missing something, setting i to that will break the loop control.

That's because your authz-regexp is wrong. You mapped "cn=localhost" but when using SASL EXTERNAL, the user's DN is the complete certificate DN. In your case, "cn=localhost,o=OpenLDAP,st=Some-State,c=US" The reason this didn't break replication is because in this test, everything has anonymous read access so the consumer was able to pull what it needed. > Another problem is that bind > operations to the consumer server start to return two result messages -- one > with the error code of the chained operation, and one with the error code of the > bind operation. I didn't get this far because your test certificate is now expired. I guess I can substitute some other certs and look at it again, but I think the core issue is your misconfigured authz-regexp. > To simplify reproducing the problem, I've worked with test022-ppolicy in the > openldap test framework.

Better to rename your scripts when you modify one of our existing ones. E.g. test999-xxxxxx and just create new data files instead of modifying ours. -- -- Howard Chu CTO, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/

Re: (ITS#6806) Invalid ldapadd crashes openldap with ndb backend

The same behavior happens with 2.4.23, I initially noticed the problem with 2.4.23, built from source on ubuntu server, and then tried with the rebuilt 2.4.19 rpm on rhel. both die with a bus error message when ldapadd is run on the invalid ldif.

(ITS#6812) Confused syncprov return codes
by h.b.furuseth＠usit.uio.no 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

Full_Name: Hallvard B Furuseth Version: HEAD OS: URL: Submission from: (NULL) (129.240.6.233) Submitted by: hallvard syncprov_state_ctrl(), syncprov_done_ctrl(), syncprov_sendinfo() and thus findpres_cb() can return either an LDAP result code, or a negative number on BER error. I see no code which expects both classes of error codes. The first functions's callers set rs->sr_err = return value. At best I guess it'll be ignored or interpreted as LDAP_SERVER_DOWN.

(ITS#6811) Patch - Mozilla NSS - disable pkcs11 fork checking for the software token
by rmeggins＠redhat.com 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

Full_Name: Rich Megginson Version: 2.4.23 (current CVS HEAD) OS: RHEL6 URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/openldap-2.4.23-moznss-disable-nofork-20110… Submission from: (NULL) (76.113.111.209) There are some applications that acquire a crypto context in the parent process and expect that crypto context to work after a fork(). This does not work with MozNSS using strict PKCS11 compliance mode. We set the environment variable NSS_STRICT_NOFORK=DISABLED in tlsm_init() to tell the software encryption module/token to allow crypto contexts to persist across a fork(). However, if you are using some other module or encryption device that supports and expects full PKCS11 semantics, the only recourse is to modify the application to use atfork() handlers to save the crypto context in the parent and restore (and SECMOD_RestartModules) the context in the child. These patch files are derived from OpenLDAP Software. All of the modifications to OpenLDAP Software represented in the following patch(es) were developed by Red Hat. Red Hat has not assigned rights and/or interest in this work to any party. I, Rich Megginson am authorized by Red Hat, my employer, to release this work under the following terms.
