#2361 sssd creates bad ldap filter if ldap_id_mapping is set true
Closed: Invalid None Opened 9 years ago by jhrozek.

Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Fedora): Bug 1105561

Description of problem:

Setting ldap_id_mapping true in the sssd.conf sssd generates a bad ldap-filter:

(Thu Jun  5 11:13:33 2014) [sssd[be[ldap]]] [sdap_get_generic_ext_step]
(0x0400): calling ldap_search_ext with [(&(sAMAccountName=test)(objectclass=use
r)(sAMAccountName=*)((null)=*))][dc=suse,dc=de].

With the version of 1.11.3. it worked fine:
(Thu Jun  5 11:10:25 2014) [sssd[be[ldap]]] [sdap_get_generic_ext_step]
(0x0400): calling ldap_search_ext with [(&(sAMAccountName=test)(objectclass=use
r)(sAMAccountName=*)(&(uidNumber=*)(!(uidNumber=0))))[dc=suse,dc=de].

The same configuration with ldap_id_mapping= false works fine.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sssd 1.11.5.1


How reproducible:

Set ldap_id_mapping true in sssd.conf when id provider is ldap.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
sssd can not find the ldap user.

Expected results:
sssd must find the user.

Additional info:

We should only improve documentation and list that you need to use either id_provider=ad or ldap_schema=ad, currently the docs are a bit ambiguous and maybe add a warning if ID mapping is on, but the SID attributes are not defined.

At the very least, using "NULL" in the filter is ugly and with some libc implementations might be dangerous. But the ticket is much lower priority now.
