[Issue 10085] New: test029 can't pass with SLAPD_USE_SASL is set
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 07 Aug '26

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10085 Issue ID: 10085 Summary: test029 can't pass with SLAPD_USE_SASL is set Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: test suite Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: ondra(a)mistotebe.net Target Milestone: --- Running make test with SLAPD_USE_SASL set will fail test029. There is even a comment there that we can't support that functionality as-is when SASL binds are configured. We should probably remove that part of the test or skip it unconditionally for now. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9651] New: Add some kind of rate limiting option to ldapmodify

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9651 Issue ID: 9651 Summary: Add some kind of rate limiting option to ldapmodify Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.6 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: --- Component: client tools Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: hyc(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- When using ldapmodify to replay a testing workload it would be useful to be able to specify a request rate, instead of just performing multiple operations in immediate succession. As a simpler alternative, just being able to specify a time interval between operations would be helpful. As an even greater future enhancement, it would be nice to have an option to replay an accesslog.ldif directly, using its embedded timestamps to control the time interval between operations. Currently this isn't feasible since reqstart timestamps only have 1-second granularity, the fraction part is a linear counter and not a microsecond value. The reqStart fraction would need to be extended to 9 decimal places with full nanosecond resolution in order to be usable as actual fractional time. We already know that microsecond resolution is insufficient to avoid frequent collisions. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 10064] New: Add modrdn support for Cft_Misc entries

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10064 Issue ID: 10064 Summary: Add modrdn support for Cft_Misc entries Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: ondra(a)mistotebe.net Target Milestone: --- Currently in cn=config, there is some special handling to maintain overlays/dbs entries to allow list-like management. All module defined entries are marked Cft_Misc and this behaviour is not available there. It boils down to allowing the module to screen rename/renumber requests and having bconfig defer to that callback if it's defined. Use-case: policy selection rules in ITS#9343 would benefit from being managed this way rather than having to reparse a long line every time a rule is adjusted. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9431] New: back-mdb: Always have an equality index for objectClass
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 07 Aug '26

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9431 Issue ID: 9431 Summary: back-mdb: Always have an equality index for objectClass Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: backends Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: quanah(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- Data storage backends require an equality index on objectClass to function correctly. As this is a hard requirement it should be automatic with back-mdb. Why this wasn't done in the past with other backends isn't exactly clear, it may have been due to their requirements to have additional cache layers. That however is not necessary with back-mdb. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Bug 9204] New: slapo-constraint allows anyone to apply Relax control
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 07 Aug '26

07 Aug '26

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9204 Bug ID: 9204 Summary: slapo-constraint allows anyone to apply Relax control Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.4.49 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: overlays Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: ryan(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- slapo-constraint doesn't limit who can use the Relax control, beyond the global limits applied by slapd. In practice, for many modifications this means any configured constraints are advisory only. In my opinion this should be considered a bug, in design if not implementation. I expect many admins would not read the man page closely enough to realize the behaviour does technically adhere to the letter of what's written there. Either slapd should require manage privileges for the Relax control globally, or slapo-constraint should perform a check for manage privilege itself, like slapo-unique does. Quoting ando in https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5705#c4: > Well, a user with "manage" privileges on related data could bypass > constraints enforced by slapo-constraint(5) by using the "relax" > control. The rationale is that a user with manage privileges could be > able to repair an entry that needs to violate a constraint for good > reasons. Note that the user: > > - must have enough privileges to do it (manage) > > - must inform the DSA that intends to violate the constraint (by using > the control) but such privileges are currently not being required. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 9244] New: API calls blocking after async connect
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 07 Aug '26

07 Aug '26

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9244 Bug ID: 9244 Summary: API calls blocking after async connect Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.4.49 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: libraries Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: ryan(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 721 --> https://bugs.openldap.org/attachment.cgi?id=721&action=edit async connect test without TLS My understanding of LDAP_OPT_CONNECT_ASYNC is that the attached program should not block. If the connection does not establish fast enough, the bind call is supposed to return LDAP_X_CONNECTING. (At least that's how I understand it, based on the original behaviour (circa 2.4.23 up to 2.4.40) as well as the bind loop in back-meta. On the other hand, the man page does "Subsequent calls to library routines will poll for completion of the connect before performing further operations" which might be interpreted as meaning they would block...) In current releases it does block, as demonstrated by strace on Linux (latency added using 'tc qdisc'): [...] connect(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(389), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.204")}, 16) = -1 EINPROGRESS (Operation now in progress) write(3, "0\f\2\1\1`\7\2\1\3\4\0\200\0", 14) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=3, events=POLLOUT|POLLERR|POLLHUP}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLOUT}]) write(3, "0\f\2\1\1`\7\2\1\3\4\0\200\0", 14) = 14 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) read(3, "0\f\2\1\1a\7\n", 8) = 8 read(3, "\1\0\4\0\4\0", 6) = 6 write(2, "OK: ldap_simple_bind_returned 0 "..., 42OK: ldap_simple_bind_returned 0 (Success) ) = 42 [...] As discussed in IRC, I believe I bisected this down to commit ae6347bac, from bug 8022. The reasoning is sound, but ldap_int_open_connection does not actually return -2, only -1 or 0. The patch is simple enough, but I'm also looking at some later commits that were probably done to work around this, and might not be needed now (bug 8957, bug 8968, bug 8980). Also need to test all setups thoroughly (ldap, ldaps, STARTTLS, not to mention back-meta/asyncmeta). I also notice that LDAP_OPT_CONNECT_ASYNC is not effective unless LDAP_OPT_NETWORK_TIMEOUT is also set. It might be intentional, but the man page doesn't mention this specifically, and I don't see why it would be necessary... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Issue 9878] New: test043 failures in 2.5/2.6

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9878 Issue ID: 9878 Summary: test043 failures in 2.5/2.6 Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: ondra(a)mistotebe.net Target Milestone: --- With test043 update for ITS#9823, we manage to introduce a scenario where the server is completely idle except for a runqueue change. This is partly identical with ITS#9642 and a similar approach would work. Except that changes our module facing ABI so might not be something we can backport. For the streams we can't, we might have to change the test to make the server not idle. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 10073] New: database monitor | slapd fails to start when "database ldap" without suffix exists
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 07 Aug '26

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10073 Issue ID: 10073 Summary: database monitor | slapd fails to start when "database ldap" without suffix exists Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.14 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: backends Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: cyusedfzfb(a)gmail.com Target Milestone: --- As requested on the mailinglist, I am filing an issue for this behaviour: Today setup the cn=Monitor backend, and after doing so, openldap failed to start with: backend_startup_one (type=monitor, suffix="cn=Monitor"): bi_db_open failed! (-1) The reason turned out to be: we had configured one of our databases ("database ldap") without a suffix. After I added a suffix, openldap started, and cn=Monitor worked as expected. It would be nice if this error message could become a little bit more specific. :-) Also: we've had the "database ldap" without a suffix in production working for many years. Perhaps cn=Monitor should be able to deal with that config as well..? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.
