https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10430 Issue ID: 10430 Summary: Heap Buffer Overflow in parse_whsp causes Out-of-Bounds Read Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: libraries Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: zesheng(a)tamu.edu Target Milestone: --- ## Summary A heap buffer overflow vulnerability in OpenLDAP's `parse_whsp()` function allows an attacker to trigger out-of-bounds memory reads when parsing malformed LDAP schema definitions, potentially leading to information disclosure or crashes. ## Root Cause The vulnerability exists in `libraries/libldap/schema.c` at line 1090. The `parse_whsp()` function iterates through a string checking for whitespace characters using `LDAP_SPACE()` macro, but does not verify that the pointer stays within the allocated buffer bounds. When parsing malformed schema strings that end unexpectedly, the function reads beyond the heap buffer. ### Vulnerable Code (schema.c:1086-1092) ```c /* Gobble optional whitespace */ static void parse_whsp(const char **sp) { while (LDAP_SPACE(**sp)) // BUG: no bounds check, can read past buffer (*sp)++; } ``` ### LDAP_SPACE Macro (ldap_pvt.h:255) ```c #define LDAP_SPACE(c) ((c) == ' ' || (c) == '\t' || (c) == '\n') ``` The macro checks for space/tab/newline but does NOT check for null terminator. If the heap memory immediately after the allocated buffer happens to contain whitespace bytes (0x20, 0x09, 0x0a), the function continues reading out of bounds. ## PoC ### Trigger file A crafted schema string (`poc`, 49 bytes) that triggers the overflow: ``` (13.5 NAME 'caseExactMatch' SYNTAX 'nooideithe1r. ``` ``` hexdump -C poc: 00000000 28 31 33 2e 35 20 4e 41 4d 45 20 27 63 61 73 65 |(13.5 NAME 'case| 00000010 45 78 61 63 74 4d 61 74 63 68 27 20 53 59 4e 54 |ExactMatch' SYNT| 00000020 41 58 20 27 6e 6f 6f 69 64 65 69 74 68 65 31 72 |AX 'nooideithe1r| 00000030 2e |.| ``` ### How to generate poc ```python # generate_poc.py data = b"(13.5 NAME 'caseExactMatch' SYNTAX 'nooideithe1r." with open("poc", "wb") as f: f.write(data) ``` --- ## Trigger Method 1: Direct API Call ```c // test_schema.c #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <ldap.h> #include <ldap_schema.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { FILE *f = fopen("poc", "rb"); fseek(f, 0, SEEK_END); long size = ftell(f); fseek(f, 0, SEEK_SET); char *input = malloc(size + 1); fread(input, 1, size, f); input[size] = '\0'; fclose(f); int code = 0; const char *errp = NULL; // This triggers the vulnerability LDAPAttributeType *at = ldap_str2attributetype(input, &code, &errp, LDAP_SCHEMA_ALLOW_ALL); if (at) { ldap_attributetype_free(at); } free(input); return 0; } ``` **Build and run:** ```bash # Build OpenLDAP with AddressSanitizer cd openldap ./configure CC=clang CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address -g" --without-tls make # Compile and run test clang -fsanitize=address -g -I include \ -L libraries/libldap/.libs -L libraries/liblber/.libs \ test_schema.c -o test_schema -lldap -llber \ -Wl,-rpath,libraries/libldap/.libs:libraries/liblber/.libs ./test_schema ``` **Output:** ``` ==PID==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0x506000000052 at pc 0x... bp 0x... sp 0x...

However, adding an explicit null check makes the code more robust and clearly documents the termination condition. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

The leak occurred during LDAP search filter parsing when processing authorization values (authzDN/authzTo/authzFrom attributes). ## Issue Description ### Symptoms - LeakSanitizer detected a 14-byte memory leak per affected operation - Leak occurred during search operations with authorization filters - Memory allocated by `ldap_url_desc2str()` was never freed ### Detection ``` ==50210==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks Direct leak of 14 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x55d5617e1614 in malloc /src/llvm-project/compiler-rt/lib/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:67:3 #1 0x55d561dd5f04 in ber_memalloc_x /src/openldap/libraries/liblber/memory.c:228:9 #2 0x55d561d6f2ba in ldap_url_desc2str /src/openldap/libraries/libldap/url.c:803:6 #3 0x55d5619df587 in authzPrettyNormal /src/openldap/servers/slapd/saslauthz.c:843:23 #4 0x55d5619ddf5e in authzNormalize /src/openldap/servers/slapd/saslauthz.c:885:7 #5 0x55d561902b22 in asserted_value_validate_normalize /src/openldap/servers/slapd/value.c:170:8 #6 0x55d5618f8ac4 in get_ava /src/openldap/servers/slapd/ava.c:121:7 #7 0x55d5618688d0 in get_filter0 /src/openldap/servers/slapd/filter.c:151:9 #8 0x55d561872cc7 in get_filter_list /src/openldap/servers/slapd/filter.c:350:9 #9 0x55d561868595 in get_filter0 /src/openldap/servers/slapd/filter.c:231:9 #10 0x55d561872cc7 in get_filter_list /src/openldap/servers/slapd/filter.c:350:9 #11 0x55d561868595 in get_filter0 /src/openldap/servers/slapd/filter.c:231:9 #12 0x55d561872cc7 in get_filter_list /src/openldap/servers/slapd/filter.c:350:9 #13 0x55d561868595 in get_filter0 /src/openldap/servers/slapd/filter.c:231:9 #14 0x55d5618ad657 in do_search /src/openldap/servers/slapd/search.c:126:15 ``` ## Root Cause Analysis ### Memory Allocation Mismatch The issue stems from a mismatch between memory allocation strategies: 1. **Function Call Chain:** ``` get_ava() → asserted_value_validate_normalize() [with ctx=op->o_tmpmemctx] → authzNormalize() → authzPrettyNormal() → ldap_url_desc2str() ``` 2. **The Problem:** - `ldap_url_desc2str()` allocates memory using `LDAP_MALLOC()` (global heap) - The calling code expects memory allocated via `slap_sl_malloc(ctx)` (context-aware) - Context-aware memory is automatically freed when the operation completes - Global heap memory requires explicit `ber_memfree()` call - No explicit free was performed, causing the leak ### Code Location **File:** `servers/slapd/saslauthz.c` **Function:** `authzPrettyNormal()` **Lines:** 842-849 (original code) ```c // BEFORE (leaked memory): ludp->lud_port = 0; normalized->bv_val = ldap_url_desc2str( ludp ); // ← Allocates with LDAP_MALLOC if ( normalized->bv_val ) { normalized->bv_len = strlen( normalized->bv_val ); } else { rc = LDAP_INVALID_SYNTAX; } ``` ## Fix Implementation ### Solution Strategy Copy the result from `ldap_url_desc2str()` into context-allocated memory, then free the original allocation. ### Modified Code ```diff diff --git a/servers/slapd/saslauthz.c b/servers/slapd/saslauthz.c index 86ef944..1833921 100644 --- a/servers/slapd/saslauthz.c +++ b/servers/slapd/saslauthz.c @@ -840,12 +840,16 @@ is_dn: bv.bv_len = val->bv_len - ( bv.bv_val - val->bv_val ); } ludp->lud_port = 0; - normalized->bv_val = ldap_url_desc2str( ludp ); - if ( normalized->bv_val ) { - normalized->bv_len = strlen( normalized->bv_val ); - - } else { - rc = LDAP_INVALID_SYNTAX; + { + char *tmpstr = ldap_url_desc2str( ludp ); + if ( tmpstr ) { + normalized->bv_len = strlen( tmpstr ); + normalized->bv_val = slap_sl_malloc( normalized->bv_len + 1, ctx ); + strcpy( normalized->bv_val, tmpstr ); + ber_memfree( tmpstr ); + } else { + rc = LDAP_INVALID_SYNTAX; + } } done: ``` ### Fix Details 1. Store `ldap_url_desc2str()` result in temporary variable `tmpstr` 2. Allocate new memory using `slap_sl_malloc(ctx)` (context-aware allocator) 3. Copy the string content to the new memory 4. Free the original allocation using `ber_memfree()` 5.

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10448 Issue ID: 10448 Summary: Memory leak in syncprov_parseCtrl Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.6.12 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: overlays Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: kangyang126(a)gmail.com Target Milestone: --- # ASAN Leak Report: Sync Provider Control ## Component * **File:** `servers/slapd/overlays/syncprov.c` * **Function:** `syncprov_parseCtrl` ## Issue Description **LeakSanitizer Error:** Memory leak of `sync_control` structure. ```plaintext ==266290==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks Direct leak of 80 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x555555964614 in malloc /src/llvm-project/compiler-rt/lib/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:67:3 #1 0x555555f58a04 in ber_memalloc_x /src/openldap/libraries/liblber/memory.c:228:9 #2 0x555555a7cb06 in ch_malloc /src/openldap/servers/slapd/ch_malloc.c:54:23 #3 0x555555b3ba6c in slap_sl_calloc /src/openldap/servers/slapd/sl_malloc.c:401:12 #4 0x555555ca1734 in syncprov_parseCtrl /src/openldap/servers/slapd/overlays/syncprov.c:4333:7 #5 0x555555b0e13c in slap_parse_ctrl /src/openldap/servers/slapd/controls.c:738:10 #6 0x555555b0f101 in get_ctrls2 /src/openldap/servers/slapd/controls.c:929:16 #7 0x555555a30eae in do_search /src/openldap/servers/slapd/search.c:194:6 #8 0x5555559e155d in connection_operation /src/openldap/servers/slapd/connection.c:1137:7 #9 0x5555559e0327 in connection_read_thread /src/openldap/servers/slapd/connection.c:1289:14 #10 0x5555559a869a in LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput /src/fuzz_slapd.c:88:5 ``` The `syncprov` overlay allocates a specific `sync_control` structure and attaches it to the operation's control list (`op->o_controls`) when parsing the `LDAP_CONTROL_SYNC`. * **Leak:** The core server's cleanup routine (`slap_free_ctrls`) is unaware of this overlay-specific structure. If the operation is abandoned or fails (e.g., during parsing of subsequent controls), the `sync_control` and its internal allocations (context CSNs, session IDs) are never freed. ## Fix * **Cleanup Callback:** Defined a new callback function `syncprov_ctrl_cleanup` that properly frees the `sync_control` structure. * **Registration:** Updated `syncprov_parseCtrl` to register this callback (`op->o_callback`) immediately after allocating the control. This ensures `slap_cleanup_play` invokes the cleanup routine during operation teardown, preventing the leak. ## Diff ```diff diff --git a/servers/slapd/overlays/syncprov.c b/servers/slapd/overlays/syncprov.c index 042d742..7257f79 100644 --- a/servers/slapd/overlays/syncprov.c +++ b/servers/slapd/overlays/syncprov.c @@ -4246,6 +4246,26 @@ syncprov_db_destroy( return 0; } +static int +syncprov_ctrl_cleanup( Operation *op, SlapReply *rs ) +{ + if ( op->o_controls[slap_cids.sc_LDAPsync] ) { + sync_control *sr = op->o_controls[slap_cids.sc_LDAPsync]; + op->o_controls[slap_cids.sc_LDAPsync] = NULL; + if ( sr->sr_state.ctxcsn ) { + ber_bvarray_free_x( sr->sr_state.ctxcsn, op->o_tmpmemctx ); + } + if ( sr->sr_state.sids ) { + op->o_tmpfree( sr->sr_state.sids, op->o_tmpmemctx ); + } + if ( sr->sr_state.octet_str.bv_val ) { + op->o_tmpfree( sr->sr_state.octet_str.bv_val, op->o_tmpmemctx ); + } + op->o_tmpfree( sr, op->o_tmpmemctx ); + } + return slap_freeself_cb( op, rs ); +} + static int syncprov_parseCtrl ( Operation *op, SlapReply *rs, @@ -4353,6 +4373,13 @@ static int syncprov_parseCtrl ( op->o_sync_mode |= mode; /* o_sync_mode shares o_sync */ + { + slap_callback *cb = op->o_tmpcalloc( 1, sizeof(slap_callback), op->o_tmpmemctx ); + cb->sc_cleanup = syncprov_ctrl_cleanup; + cb->sc_next = op->o_callback; + op->o_callback = cb; + } + return LDAP_SUCCESS; } ``` ## Harness ``` #define _GNU_SOURCE /* For memfd_create */ #include "portable.h" #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <signal.h> #include "slap.h" /* 1.
