Bug in ldapdb_plugin - No check if memory is exhausted in ldapdb_canon_client

Hi List,

 

I used the ldapdb_plugin as a template for my sql_plugin-enhancements.

While reading through the code there is one problem coming to my mind:

In ldapdb_canon_client there is NO check whether ulen is greater than
out_umax - maybe it is only a minor issue because the string user is only
truncated, but I didn't have a look if there could be any situation where
the size of the string user could be greater than out_umax.

 

Patch would be: 

>if (ulen>out_umax) return SASL_NOMEM;

Just in front of the memcpy.

 

Lars
