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:
The "memberOf" fix-up task now verifies arguments Previously, if an invalid filter or "basedn" parameter was provided in the "memberOf" fix-up task, and the task failed, no information was logged. A patch has been applied and now, if a problem occurs, an error is logged and the task status is updated. As a result, the administrator is now able to identify if a task failed.

Description mreynolds 2016-12-21 15:28:01 UTC 
Description of problem:

The filter and basedn of the memberOf fixup task are not validated.  If there is a problem it silently fails, and it's not obvious in the logs that the task failed.

How reproducible:

Run the memberOf fixup task using an invalid filter:

    '(objectclass=person'


Actual results:

The errors log shows that the task finished, but in fact it failed


Expected results:

The errors log, and task log, show that the task failed to run.

Comment 5 Sankar Ramalingam 2017-01-11 11:33:05 UTC 
I ran fixup-memberof.pl script to check if it throws error for invalid filters. No errors printed in the DS error logs. It seems like the issue is still present with the latest build of 389-ds-base-1.2.11.15-86.

Comment 6 mreynolds 2017-01-11 17:13:59 UTC 
This works for me on master branch.  

Note that task will still get successfully added, but it fails afterwards.  This is only evident in the errors log:


fixup-memberof.pl -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w Secret123 -b "dc=xample,dc=com"  -f '(|(objectclass=inetuser)(objec'


[11/Jan/2017:12:07:40.015817247 -0500] - INFO - memberof-plugin - memberof_fixup_task_thread - Memberof task starts (filter: "(|(objectclass=inetuser)(objec") ...

Thanks for taking care of the issue, Mark.  Just in case, I'm attaching 49072 patches used in the 389-ds-base-1.2.11.15-86.el6 build to this bug.  Hopefully, it'd help your investigation...
Comment 11 mreynolds 2017-01-13 14:45:52 UTC 
The filter evaluation works correctly on 1.2.11.15-86


# /usr/lib64/dirsrv/slapd-localhost/fixup-memberof.pl -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w Secret123 -b "dc=xample,dc=com"  -f '(objectclass=person'

But I found another bug.  The basedn on 1.2.11 is not being validated.  I will look into this...

fixup-memberof.pl script validates both BaseDN as well as the filter. Hence, marking the bug as Verified.
