Is this a know bug (see ITS#6570) or something new? Is there a workaround it?
AFAIK it is not known. I am able to reproduce it (Linux, HEAD code), so I suggest you file an ITS. With respect to a workaround, it is not clear what's the purpose of the operation you're trying to accomplish. In general, a modrdn on the empty DN should be meaningless (although it should not crash the server).
A fix is in HEAD (slapd/modrdn.c); please test. p.
Please keep replies on the thread.
Thanks, I'll give it a try. And sorry for the confusion, by "work around" a meant securing server from a such easy DOS attack, i.e.preventing a crush.
Do you know when 2.4.24 is scheduled to come out? Do you still want me to create an ITS?
Yes, please, so we can track the issue. Thanks, p.
