[Fedora-directory-devel] Please review: Bug 451702 - Admin Server fails on F9 due to NSS 3.12 libs moved to /lib
by Rich Megginson 28 Aug '08

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451702 Resolves: bug 451702 Bug Description: Admin Server fails on F9 due to NSS 3.12 libs moved to /lib Reviewed by: ??? Files: see diff Branch: HEAD Fix Description: The problem is that nss-devel puts libssl3.so in libdir at build time, but at runtime there is only nss which now uses /lib|/lib64. So the build time nsslibdir is not the same as the runtime nsslibdir. It looks as though the preload of ssl3 is not needed with f9 and/or nss 3.12. So we just look for libssl3.so in the $libdir, if not found, we just skip it, and assume it's nss 3.12 and/or f9 and it is not needed.

[Fedora-directory-devel] Please review: Bug 457846 - (winsyncapi) The Windows Sync API should have plug-in points
by Rich Megginson 27 Aug '08

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=457846 Resolves: bug 457846 Bug Description: The Windows Sync API should have plug-in points Reviewed by: ??? Files: see diff Branch: HEAD Fix Description: This is a follow up to the original fix for this bug. Some additional changes to the api 1) added plugin points for begin update, end update, and agreement destruction 2) added debugging code to allow a regular DS to stand in for AD 3) fixed a couple of minor memory leaks 4) added the rest of the SLAPI DSE code to the public API to allow plugins to do dynamic configuration using the SLAPI public API Platforms tested: RHEL5 Flag Day: no Doc impact: yes - plugin guide https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=315142&action=diff

[Fedora-directory-devel] coolkey information and license
by Andreas Jellinghaus 27 Aug '08

27 Aug '08

Hi, first some question about coolkey: is the windows CSP coolkey specific, or is it (as it looks from many miles away) a generic CSP to PKCS#11 bridge? the csp code mentions Identity alliance all over the place - is this the ID Ally CSP now open sourced? (it worked always fine for me, so an open source release labed as coolkey would be great). The fedora directory server wiki page on coolkey doesn't have too many details on what each component exactly does / how it is implemented. For example: - the windows CSP: generic or tied to the coolkey pkcs#11 module? - the java card applet: generic or only working on cyberflex cards? how is it uploaded? with gpshell? maybe include instructions for doing this, or refer to some tutorial? - the java card applet: what API does it implement? I guess not a filesystem with pkcs#15 structures, but some proprietory simple api? - is the source code of the java card applet open source too? where can people find it? - how is the card managed with this applet? e.g. does it implement a single user or a security officer plus normal user combo? or is it flexible to do both? - the windows makefile: what build environment for windows does it expect? (oops, found the wiki page with the windows build instructions, thanks, solved) - what is the job of the "cspres.dll"? - what is the job of th "regcerts.exe"? when/how does a user need to start it? - does the pk11install.c work with all versions of mozilla firefox, thunderbird and netscape? if so, it would be very interesting for other projects with pkcs#11 modules too. what does it exactly? (modify config file? databases? ...) is it important to have firefox etc. running? or to have it not running? etc. - the ChangeLog file is mentioned in the spec file - thus I guess it gets included in the rpm? this is not needed (the file is empty) - the coolkey.spec sets the license to LGPL which is not 100% correct (see below) - the coolkey.spec file uses "PKCS#11" without mentioning "RSA Security Inc. Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS)" which could be a license violation (see below) - the pkcs11.h file has a different license clause than the usual file. I wonder where you got this, did RSA ever released a file with the spelling error "In.c"? last the license: some web sites assume the software is LGPL. but the PKCS#11 header files used - even the copy from mozilla source - is not, it includes the RSA disclaimour, which is similar to the BSD advertising clause, but worse because of its very vague formulation ("all material" etc.). Scute has a PKCS#11 header file written from scratch by using public information thus not tainted by any RSA license. opensc and a number of other open source projects switched to using this header file (released as public domain). maybe this is a viable solution for coolkey too? (same pkcs#11 header files in coolkey and the windows/csp directory.) Regards, Andreas

[Fedora-directory-devel] Please review: Bug 457156 - GER: allow GER for non-existing entries (phase 2)
by Rich Megginson 08 Aug '08

08 Aug '08

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=457156 Resolves: bug 457156 Bug Description: GER: allow GER for non-existing entries (phase 2) Reviewed by: ??? Files: see diff Branch: HEAD Fix Description: There are a couple of memory leaks in the code. acleffectiverights.c line 617 calls slapi_attr_get_valueset to get the list of objectclass values in objclassvals - this function allocates memory (returns a dup of the list) but this is not freed. The fix is to call slapi_valueset_free() to free it. The allattrs and opattrs arrays are not freed in all conditions. The fix is to make sure they are freed in all conditions.

[Fedora-directory-devel] Please Review: (458135) Sort control message should not be logged for internal operations
by Nathan Kinder 06 Aug '08

06 Aug '08

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458135 esolves: bug 458135 Bug Description: The backend plug-in currently attempts to log a message whenever it is processing a sort control as part of a search operation. For an internal operation, this causes an error to be logged since the connection ID is not set for an internal operation, but the access log needs it for the log message. When using the DNA plug-in, you will see lots of these messages since it does an internal sorted search. We should not attempt to log anything related to the sort control in the access log for internal operations. Reviewed by: ??? Files: see diff Branch: HEAD Fix Description: Simply check if the operation is an internal operation before attempting to log the SORT message to the access log.

[Fedora-directory-devel] Please Review: (457951) Range search shouldn't be used when a DNA prefix is set
by Nathan Kinder 05 Aug '08

05 Aug '08

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=457951 Resolves: bug 457951 Bug Description: The DNA plug-in uses a range search internally to locate the next free value within the managed range. This works fine when the values are strictly integers, but the DNA plug-in supports a prefix to the integer portion of the value (such as "user1 - user1000"). Reviewed by: ??? Files: see diff Branch: HEAD Fix Description: When a prefix is defined, we should not use a range search to locate the next free value. We should simply do an exact match search to see if the next value in the cached configuration entry is free. If it is not free, we iterate through each value in the range until we either find a free value, or hit the end of the range. This will typically perform fine, as the next value in the configuration entry should be free unless someone manually assigned it. The worst case scenario is that we have to go through a large block of values that was manually assigned, which will be helped by an equality index. Even so, this case should be rare. For efficiency in the case that we have to go through a large block of manually assigned values, I wanted to reuse a previously allocated pblock instead of allocating one for each search. This required me to export a new public SLAPI function that re-initializes a pblock so it can be reused. Platforms tested: Fedora 8 x86_64 Flag Day: no Doc impact: Yes. We need to doc the new slapi_pblock_init() function in the plug-in guide. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=313468&action=diff
