New subject: Antw: rwm overlay causes slapd segfault

12 Feb 2014


      Needed to enable authentication on ldap server via the mail attribute.
I used the overlay rwm as documentation:
   * Http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/overlays.html # Rewrite / Remap
   * http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200707/msg00487.html
   * http://www.openldap.org/software/man.cgi?query=slapo-rwm&sektion=5&a...
I run the current version of OpenLDAP :
dpkg -l | grep openldap
ii  openldap-ltb                       2.4.39-1
amd64        OpenLDAP server with addons from the LDAP Tool Box
project
ii  openldap-ltb-check-password        2.4.39-1
amd64        check_password module for password policy
ii  openldap-ltb-contrib-overlays      2.4.39-1
amd64        Overlays contributed to OpenLDAP
My configuration snippet is shown below :
...
backend         hdb
moduleload      rwm
overlay rwm
rwm-rewriteEngine       on
rwm-rewriteMap  ldap    attr2dn "ldaps:///dc=gov,dc=br?dn?sub?"
rwm-rewriteContext      bindDN
rwm-rewriteRule "^mail=[^,]+@[^,]+$" "${attr2dn($0)}" ":@I"
database        hdb
...
Everything worked fine , but sometimes occurred a ' slapd segfault "
there was no apparent cause .
A log analysis allowed us to identify the query that caused the "crash
" was the folder containing " ** " as follows :
"(mail=*name**surname*)(mailAlternateAddress=*name**surname*)"
Redid several searches and this is really "crash " in some situations :

To work around this error I added the lines:
# Remove os '**" da pesquisa 'mail=**' evitando o segfault
rwm-rewriteContext searchFilter
rwm-rewriteRule "(.*)(\* ?\*)(.*)" "$1*$3" "@I"
This problem also occurs in other versions of slapd native Debian and Ubuntu.
Without the overlay rwm not occur this BUG . Can anyone confirm if it
is really a bug in the " rwm overlay" ?
