by openldap-its@openldap.org
https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9952
Issue ID: 9952
Summary: Crash on exit with OpenSSL 3
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: 2.6.2
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needs_review
Severity: normal
Priority: ---
Component: libraries
Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org
Reporter: artur.zaprzala(a)gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
A program using libldap will crash on exit after using SSL connection.
How to reproduce on CentOS 9:
Uncomment the following lines in /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf:
[provider_sect]
legacy = legacy_sect
[legacy_sect]
activate = 1
Run the command (you must enter a valid LDAP server address):
python3 -c "import ldap; ldap.initialize('ldaps://<LDAP SERVER
ADDRESS>').whoami_s()"
Another example (no server required):
python3 -c "import ctypes;
ctypes.CDLL('libldap.so.2').ldap_pvt_tls_init_def_ctx(0)"
Results:
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Backtrace from gdb:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The problem is that ldap_int_tls_destroy() is called after the clean up of
libssl.
On program exit, at first default_context_int is cleaned up (OPENSSL_cleanup()
was registered with atexit()):
0 ossl_lib_ctx_default_deinit () at crypto/context.c:196
1 OPENSSL_cleanup () at crypto/init.c:424
2 OPENSSL_cleanup () at crypto/init.c:338

Then ossl_lib_ctx_get_data() tries to use default_context_int.lock, which is
NULL. ldap_int_tls_destroy() is called by ldap_int_destroy_global_options(),
registered by "__attribute__ ((destructor))".
It seems that shared library destructors are always called before functions
registered with atexit().
A solution may be to modify libraries/libldap/init.c to use atexit() instead of
"__attribute__ ((destructor))". atexit() manual page says: "Since glibc 2.2.3,
atexit() can be used within a shared library to establish functions that are
called when the shared library is unloaded.".
Functions registered with atexit() are called in the reverse order of their
registration, so libssl must by initialized before libldap. If the order is
wrong, libldap should detect it somehow and exit with abort().
