RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Group ACIs are now correctly evaluated Previously, if the number of members in a group in an access control instruction (ACI) exceeded the size limit of the result of the query, Directory Server incorrectly denied access. To fix the problem, the server size limit is no longer applied to the ACI group evaluation, and queries now operate correctly.

sample ldif to reproduce the issue

Description of problem:

Customer reported that some specific search operation sometimes return no entry which should return the entry.

According to aci debug log, evaluation of aci with groupdn fails as ACL_DONT_KNOW.

[13/Oct/2016:16:56:27 +0900] NSACLPlugin - Evaluating DENY aci(7) " "disable Access""

This happens if client perform search by specifying sizelimit=1.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.8 (Santiago)
389-ds-base-1.2.11.15-75.el6_8.x86_64


How reproducible:

attached reprodusable sample LDIF (example.ldif)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create suffix with dc=example,dc=com and import sample ldif

2. perform the following ldapsearch 

 ldapsearch -D uid=ro_user,ou=profile,dc=example,dc=com -w password -b "ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" -z 1 "sn=user1"

   => Please note that option '-z 1' (i.e. sizelimit=1) is specified


3.perform the same search without '-z 1'

 ldapsearch -p 30389 -h ldapj -D uid=ro_user,ou=profile,dc=example,dc=com -w password -b "ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" "sn=user1"



Actual results:
no entry is returned in step2

Expected results:
entry is returned

Additional info:
Once problematic search performed without sizelimit like step3 and got succeeded, subsequent search would return the entry correctly even if client side sizelimit is specified as result of group evaluation is cached. 

This issue is fixed in the upstream ticket #47703.

Comment 1 Hiroko Miura 2016-10-20 01:52:12 UTC 
The problematic aci in attached example.ldif is:

aci: (targetattr = "*") (version 3.0;acl "disable Access";deny (all)(groupdn =
  "ldap:///cn=disableAccess,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com");)
