Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1350632
ns-slapd shutdown crashes if pwdstorageschema name is from stack.
Last modified: 2016-11-03 16:43:30 EDT
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/48902 Due to 48872 we now actually free and close plugins correctly. However, this has exposed a number of issues in other plugins not behaving correctly. In the TET tests the xorplugin assign a name to SLAPI_PLUGIN_PWD_STORAGE_SCHEME_NAME from the stack rather than the heap. When plugin_closeall is called, this causes a segfault as slapi_ch_free_string(&plugin->plg_pwdstorageschemename); is trying to free something that it cannot. The fix is that we should be strduping the name, and then freeing that in the plugin_free. This way plugins can allocate from heap or stack and we do not cause these faults.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Run Tier2 dsCoreLong tests from beaker 2. Observe crash report in the list 3. Beaker job - https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/jobs/1379188
Ran dsCoreLong tier2 tests from beaker with the latest build of 389-ds-base and found no crash. Hence, marking the bug as Verified.
