[Issue 10254] New: Allow upgrading password hash on bind
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 08 Sep '25

08 Sep '25

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10254 Issue ID: 10254 Summary: Allow upgrading password hash on bind Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: overlays Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: me(a)floriswesterman.nl Target Milestone: --- Many OpenLDAP installations are likely to contain relatively old password hashes such as SSHA and CRYPT, as modern alternatives such as Argon are only recent additions. Due to the nature of password hashes, it is of course not possible to "unhash" the old values and rehash them with a more modern algorithm. The presence of these old password hashes poses a liability in case of information leaks or hacks. Currently, the only way to upgrade a password hash is to wait for the user to change their password. This can be sped up by expiring passwords and forcing users to change them. However, this can be slow and frequent password rotation is no longer considered a best practice. It would be a very helpful addition to add support for upgrading a password hash on bind. This is implemented in the 389 directory server: https://www.port389.org/docs/389ds/design/pwupgrade-on-bind.html Essentially, when a user binds, the password is checked like normal. In case of a successful bind, the proposed feature would check the hash algorithm used for the password; and in case it is not equal to the current `olcPasswordHash` value, the user-provided password is rehashed using the new algorithm and stored. This way, the old hashes are phased out more quickly, without being a disturbance to users. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9343] New: Expand ppolicy policy configuration to allow URL filter

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9343 Issue ID: 9343 Summary: Expand ppolicy policy configuration to allow URL filter Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: overlays Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: quanah(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- Currently, ppolicy only supports a single global default policy, and past that any policies must be manually added to a given user entry if they are supposed to have something other than the default policy. Also, some sites want no default policy, and only a specific subset to have a policy applied to them. For both of these cases, it would be helpful if it were possible to configure a policy to apply to a set of users via a URL similar to the way we handle creating groups of users in dynlist -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 10304] New: Unable to remove item from directory as part of transaction if it is the last item in that directory

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10304 Issue ID: 10304 Summary: Unable to remove item from directory as part of transaction if it is the last item in that directory Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.13 Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: backends Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: sophie.elliott(a)arcticlake.com Target Milestone: --- I am running my ldap server on Debian 11.3, with the mdb backend, using the backported openldap version 2.5.13. I am not 100% certain if this is an issue with OpenLDAP or liblmdb, but I have been running tests in the repo and it looks like the liblmdb tests work fine, so I think it's with OpenLDAP itself. I have been performing a transaction, and deleting entries from a directory during this transaction. This works fine if the item that I am deleting isn't the last entry in its directory, but when it is I get a MDB_NOTFOUND error on the commit transaction call and the delete doesn't go through. Here is an excerpt of the logs when this happens: ``` 67a64334.14e1fc32 0x766ad2a00700 => index_entry_del( 108, "accessGroupID=f23de82f-3a1c-4f88-86bb-bb07f9a0992d,o=[COMPANY],ou=accessGroups,dc=local,dc=[COMPANY],dc=com" ) 67a64334.14e21912 0x766ad2a00700 mdb_idl_delete_keys: 6c [62d34624] 67a64334.14e22812 0x766ad2a00700 <= index_entry_del( 108, "accessGroupID=f23de82f-3a1c-4f88-86bb-bb07f9a0992d,o=[COMPANY],ou=accessGroups,dc=local,dc=[COMPANY],dc=com" ) success 67a64334.14e23a91 0x766ad2a00700 mdb_delete: txn_commit failed: MDB_NOTFOUND: No matching key/data pair found (-30798) ``` Please let me know if I should submit this issue elsewhere, or if this is something that has already been fixed in a more recent version. I'm also happy to provide more details if necessary. Thank you! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 10345] New: Potential memory leak in function rbac_create_session

[Issue 10343] New: Potential Memory Leak in function slap_uuidstr_from_normalized

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10343 Issue ID: 10343 Summary: Potential Memory Leak in function slap_uuidstr_from_normalized Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: alexguo1023(a)gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 1070 --> https://bugs.openldap.org/attachment.cgi?id=1070&action=edit Patch: Change 1 to -1. In function slap_uuidstr_from_normalized, the code allocates a new `struct berval` with ```c new = (struct berval *)slap_sl_malloc(sizeof(struct berval), ctx); ``` and then attempt to allocate `new->bv_val`. If that second allocation fails, it sets `rc = 1` and jumps to the `done` cleanup label. However, the cleanup code only runs when `rc == -1`, so the memory pointed by `new` is never freed, causing a memory leak. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 10344] New: Potential memory leak in function firstComponentNormalize and objectClassPretty.

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10344 Issue ID: 10344 Summary: Potential memory leak in function firstComponentNormalize and objectClassPretty. Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: alexguo1023(a)gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 1071 --> https://bugs.openldap.org/attachment.cgi?id=1071&action=edit Patch: Ensure the first argument passed to `ber_dupbv_x` is not `NULL`. In `firstComponentNormalize`, the code calls `ber_dupbv_x` but ignores its return value. ```c ber_dupbv_x(normalized, val, ctx); ``` When `normalized` is `NULL`, `ber_dupbv_x` allocates a new `struct berval` and returns it; failing to capture that pointer means we lose ownership and leak the allocation. The same issue arises in `objectClassPretty`. We should follow the pattern in function `hexNormalize`, which asserts that its `normalized` argument is non-NULL before use: ```c assert(normalized != NULL); ``` -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 10346] New: mdb_env_copy2 on a database with a value larger than (2GB-16) results in a corrupt copy
