From 956309e24c32cd0886736bf065a27d5bdd200a77 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Engelhardt Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2013 13:12:25 +0100 Subject: sysdb: try dealing with binary-content attributes https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/1818 I have here a LDAP user entry which has this attribute loginAllowedTimeMap:: AAAAAAAAAP///38AAP///38AAP///38AAP///38AAP///38AAAAAAAAA In the function sysdb_attrs_add_string(), called from sdap_attrs_add_ldap_attr(), strlen() is called on this blob, which is the wrong thing to do. The result of strlen is then used to populate the .v_length member of a struct ldb_val - and this will set it to zero in this case. (There is also the problem that there may not be a '\0' at all in the blob.) Subsequently, .v_length being 0 makes ldb_modify(), called from sysdb_set_entry_attr(), return LDB_ERR_INVALID_ATTRIBUTE_SYNTAX. End result is that users do not get stored in the sysdb, and programs like `id` or `getent ...` show incomplete information. The bug was encountered with sssd-1.8.5. sssd-1.5.11 seemed to behave fine, but that may not mean that is the absolute lower boundary of introduction of the problem. --- src/db/sysdb.c | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) (limited to 'src/db/sysdb.c') diff --git a/src/db/sysdb.c b/src/db/sysdb.c index e7524f4b..7c347912 100644 --- a/src/db/sysdb.c +++ b/src/db/sysdb.c @@ -512,6 +512,16 @@ int sysdb_attrs_add_string(struct sysdb_attrs *attrs, return sysdb_attrs_add_val(attrs, name, &v); } +int sysdb_attrs_add_mem(struct sysdb_attrs *attrs, const char *name, + const void *mem, size_t size) +{ + struct ldb_val v; + + v.data = discard_const(mem); + v.length = size; + return sysdb_attrs_add_val(attrs, name, &v); +} + int sysdb_attrs_add_bool(struct sysdb_attrs *attrs, const char *name, bool value) { -- cgit
