Issue ID: 9805
Summary: member attributes managed by autogroup are lost when
user attributes are adjusted
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: 2.4.59
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needs_review
Severity: normal
Priority: ---
Component: contrib
Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org
Reporter: michael.bobzin(a)baloise.ch
Target Milestone: ---
Hello OpenLDAP Team,
we use nested groups in our OpenLDAP directory.
User X is a member of group A.
Group A is a member of group B.
User X is therefore also a member of group B.
To be able to find out all groups of user X with only one LDAP query
we use the dynlist overlay together with the autogroup overlay.
Group B is a dynamic group whose member attributes are set with autogroup,
to allow a search for members.
ldapsearch .. -s sub -b "ou=groups,dc=basler,dc=ch"
"(member=cn=userx,ou=users,dc=basler,dc=ch)" dn
Result:
cn=groupA,ou=groups,dc=basler,dc=ch
cn=groupB,ou=groups,dc=basler,dc=ch
----- Gruppe A ----------------------------------------------------------
dn: cn=groupA,ou=groups,dc=basler,dc=ch
cn: groupA
objectClass: top
objectClass: groupOfNames
member:cn=userX,ou=users,dc=basler,dc=ch
----- Gruppe B ----------------------------------------------------------
dn: cn=groupB,ou=groups,dc=basler,dc=ch
cn: groupB
objectClass: top
objectClass: groupOfURLs
memberURL: ldap:///ou=groups,dc=basler,dc=ch?member?one?(cn=groupA)
# managed by autogroup
member:cn=userX,ou=users,dc=basler,dc=ch
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This works until any attribute in the userX object is changed.
The member attribute for userX created dynamically by autogroup is then deleted
from groupB although userX is still a member of groupA and is therefore matched
with the search in the memberURL attribute of groupB matched.
The expected behaviour would be that the member attribute in groupB remains
unchanged.
