Alexey,

Your patch is a little bit overcautious. You could test just in front of the
line
   memcpy(out, user, ulen);

In the lines before that ulen gets decremented.
Ok.

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.
Yeah, didn't seem to be a likely case. Still probably ought to be fixed.

Patch would be:

if (ulen>out_umax) return SASL_NOMEM;
Should use SASL_BUFOVER actually.

Agreed.
Committed.

Just in front of the memcpy.

Lars
