[Issue 9343] New: Expand ppolicy policy configuration to allow URL filter
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 07 Aug '26

07 Aug '26

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 10297] New: LDAP initialization does unnecessary resolution of hostname

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10297 Issue ID: 10297 Summary: LDAP initialization does unnecessary resolution of hostname Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.6.8 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: libraries Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: simon.pichugin(a)gmail.com Target Milestone: --- curl --version does try to resolve local hostname, which is usually stored in $HOSTNAME variable. It seems it does that for no good reason. It does not matter whether machine hostname is already FQDN or not, it always try it unconditionally by calling getaddrinfo(3). Every usage of dnf tries to resolve hostname. That is then supressed by myhostname on Fedora, which returns non-helping response. Possibly, the hostname should be fetched from actual network responses. Seen with: openldap-2.6.8-5.fc41.x86_64 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. dnf install gdb curl 2. gdb --args curl --version 3. (gdb) break getaddrinfo 4. (gdb) run Actual Results: getaddrinfo is called with current hostname, stored into ldap_int_hostname variable. That is used only when ldap client has not configured target server. But this hostname seems fetched always. Expected Results: No network activity happens, unless something is actually requested. This is not the case. Suggestion is to make it lazy initialized. It should be tried only when necessary. This seems to be useful when tlso_session_chkhost in libraries/libldap/tls_o.c is used. It should initialize hostname only once conditions to use it happens. There is a fallback anyway. It should query FQDN only when name_in contains unusable response.

Restore from backup! "Permission denied" is correct, but "Restore from backup" is maybe not the most appropriate advice. ;-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 10163] New: Cleanup configure/test integration

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10163 Issue ID: 10163 Summary: Cleanup configure/test integration Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.6.6 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: build Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: hyc(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- The sed commandline configure uses to perform substitutions is getting unwieldy and may be exceeding platform limits on various systems. All of the BUILD_xxx substitutions for overlays are only used in tests/run.in. They could be completely removed, and instead each of the enabled overlays could be emitted into a separate file that just gets included by the test scripts. There's no need for them to be part of the sed invocation at all. There's also leftover BUILD_xxx cruft from backends that we've removed (e.g. back-shell BUILD_SHELL) that nothing else in the tree references any more. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9886] New: At "sync" logging, nothing shows how long a write op took on consumers

This can be useful information to see how the node is performing, particularly if it is a read only node where there will be no general MOD timing logged. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 10151] New: Leaks in do_syncrep2() when error handling
