SASL 2.0.25 libdigestmd5 memory leak [OpenLDAP (ITS#8566)]
by william.b.clay＠acm.org 12 Jan '17

12 Jan '17

Greetings, SASL developers. I recognize the version of SASL2 I'm using is long in tooth, but looking at the code, I believe a memory leak I've encountered is still present in 2.1.26 (latest source I've seen). The problem from an OpenLDAP client viewpoint is described in detail at: http://www.OpenLDAP.org/its/index.cgi?findid=8566 digestmd5.c sasl_client_start()/sasl_client_step(), when called for a new SASL DIGEST-MD5 authentication each time after the first such case, appear to abandon and re-allocate from scratch (without freeing) a [con]text->out_buf allocated and expanded during the previous authentication cycle by _plug_buf_alloc() on behalf of add_to_challenge(). In my case, each DIGEST-MD5 authentication after the first leaks 500-600 bytes, regardless of whether sasl_dispose() is called between successive authentications. I suspect, but have not proven, that this is because "text->out_buf=NULL" appears twice in digestmd5.c, in both make_client_response() and digestmd5_server_mech_step1(). If both instances were executed for one authentication cycle, it could produce the memory leak in question. The latter instance (in digestmd5_server_mech_step1()) might need to free any block addressed by the pointer before nullifying it. Sorry I can't provide a patch or stronger evidence, but the logic here is a bit complex for a casual onlooker to tackle. Thanks for your efforts, Bill Clay

Re: (ITS#8561) ppolicy overlay and MMR delta-sync lost sync on switching to REFRESH
by bhalsema＠purdue.edu 12 Jan '17

We have determined that our initial patch resulted in an undesirable side effect (a race condition due to the "drop" code now being executed). We are uploading a different patch. In short, the modification is limited to the replica handling in the ppolicy_modify() function in which we have changed from the use of LDAP_MOD_DELETE to SLAP_MOD_SOFTDEL. If this is a potentially "dangerous" choice, then, please, let us know. We would prefer to wait for your official modifications, but we understand that the discussion and resolution may take a while. We needed to address the the constant syncrepl REFRESH of our large directory as it was causing operational issues. Thank you! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beth A.

(ITS#8566) correction: "symptom details"
by william.b.clay＠acm.org 11 Jan '17

11 Jan '17

The 4th and 5th bullet points under "symptom details" of my original ticket text are not supported by the evidence. Corrected replacements: * Valgrind does NOT show lost memory after a ONE SASL authentication by a process. * Valgrind shows N-1 lost memory blocks after N multiple SASL authentications by a process. Given the same credentials and mech, each such block is the same size, ca. 500-600 bytes. On reflection, it is probably the LAST authentication that frees the memory block in question, although my testing seems to indicate it is NOT unbind() that does so; perhaps some sort of process termination callback in OpenLDAP, SASL, or MD5 library code? Sorry about the initial inaccuracy.

(ITS#8566) OpenLDAP client API SASL auth memory leak
by william.b.clay＠acm.org 11 Jan '17

11 Jan '17

Full_Name: Bill Clay Version: 2.4.44 OS: Debian/GNU Linux 7.8 (Wheezy) URL: Submission from: (NULL) (79.12.44.250) Valgrind runs of a testbed script driving an OpenLDAP API client module I am developing appear to show a consistent, reproducible memory leak ("lost memory") when using the SASL default authentication mech (DIGEST-MD5 for my system) over any underlying transport: ldapi://, ldap://, ldaps://. The first two transports show identical symptoms with or without startTLS prior to authentication. Additional test and symptom details: * Using the same testbed and client module and either SASL mech EXTERNAL or LDAP simple bind, valgrind indicates no lost memory. * Symptoms are constant with or without proxy authz (i.e., a SASL interactive callback SASL_CB_USER response). * I have not configured or tested other SASL mechs in this environment. * The FIRST SASL authentication of a process does NOT show a memory leak. * Each SASL authentication of a process AFTER the first shows a one additional realloc leak of the same size (500-600 bytes depending on bind details). * The iterative test is: [ldap_initialize()], [ldap_start_tls_s()], ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s(), [ldap_search_ext_s()], [ldap_whoami_s()], [ldap_unbind_ext_s()], where [] indicates calls whose omission yields no change in symptoms (except initialize is always called for the first iteration of a sequence and after an unbind; unbind is always called after the last iteration).
