Description Jan Vcelak 2012-04-06 09:16:08 UTC
Description of problem:

Connecting to a server with self-signed certificate without basic constraint extension fails. This kind of error seems to stop connecting even if TLS_REQCERT=never is set.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openldap-2.4.26-7.fc16


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
generate self-signed server certificate with:
certutil -d . -S -x -n ldap -s "CN=server" -t TC,,
2.
setup permissions, setup slapd, setup client
3.
ldapsearch -x -ZZ -H ldap://server
  
Actual results:

TLS: certificate [CN=server] is not valid - CA cert is not valid
TLS: certificate [CN=server] is not valid - error -8172:Peer's certificate issuer has been marked as not trusted by the user..
TLS: error: connect - force handshake failure: errno 21 - moznss error -8157
TLS: can't connect: TLS error -8157:Certificate extension not found..
ldap_err2string
ldap_start_tls: Connect error (-11)
        additional info: TLS error -8157:Certificate extension not found.


Expected results:

successful connection

Comment 1 Jan Vcelak 2012-04-26 08:11:59 UTC
This is not right. My configuration was wrong, no certificates were available. But the error message is wrong, it is completely unrelated to the problem which happened.

The original error can was overwritten with the error from the report in tlsm_verify_cert(). While walking through the verification log, basic extension from the certificate is requested in case there is a SEC_ERROR_CA_CERT_INVALID error. If the extension is not a part of the certificate, the original error is overwritten.

PR_GetError() and PR_SetError() should fix that.

Comment 12 Julian C. Dunn 2012-10-02 19:10:52 UTC
This seems to afflict the current version of openldap in RHEL 6 as well. Is there a related bug for that?

Yes, there is - bug #828787, you will need to wait for RHEL-6.4
