** Description changed:
+ Impact
+ ------
+
+ Users willing to use the slapd rwm overlay will face a slapd segmentation
fault
+ when trying to rewrite some rules. Backporting this fix will allow users using
+ stable releases to take advantage of this feature without crashing slapd. This
+ issue was fixed by upstream not freeing the rwm overlay filter memory without
+ prior checking.
+
+ Test Case
+ ---------
+
+ In this test case, the rwm overlay will be used and a rule will be created to
+ deny any search request for uid=root, then the 'ldapsearch' will be invoked to
+ trigger the failure. It is important to mention that the 'ldapsearch' command
+ should fail regardless the presence of the bug in the package, the target here
+ is the slapd crash. To reproduce this bug one can follow the procedure below
in
+ Ubuntu xenial, bionic or disco:
+
+ $ sudo apt-get update
+ $ sudo apt-get install slapd ldap-utils -y
+
+ Reconfigure the slapd package. When asked about a domain, use "example.com".
+ Choose a password you want (or just leave it blank), and accept defaults for
+ everything else:
+
+ $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure slapd
+
+ Create a file called 'add-rwm.ldif' with the following content:
+
+ $ cat add-rwm.ldif
+ dn: cn=module{0},cn=config
+ changetype: modify
+ add: olcModuleLoad
+ olcModuleLoad: rwm
+
+ dn: olcOverlay=rwm,olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config
+ changetype: add
+ objectClass: olcOverlayConfig
+ objectClass: olcRwmConfig
+ olcOverlay: rwm
+ olcRwmRewrite: {0} rwm-rewriteEngine "on"
+ olcRwmRewrite: {1} rwm-rewriteContext "searchFilter"
+ olcRwmRewrite: {2} rwm-rewriteRule "(.*)(uid=root)(.*)" "$1$2$3" "#"
+
+
+ With this file in place, run:
+
+ $ sudo ldapadd -Q -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f add-rwm.ldif
+
+ Now, to trigger the crash:
+
+ $ ldapsearch -x -h localhost -b dc=example,dc=com -LLL uid=root
+ Server is unwilling to perform (53)
+ Additional information: searchFilter/searchFilterAttrDN massage error
+
+
+ slapd process will die, and /var/crash will have a crash file for slapd. You
+ can run the following command to confirm the error:
+
+ $ cat /var/log/syslog | grep filter_free
+ Aug 9 19:51:05 popular-gorilla slapd[1479]: filter_free: unknown filter
type=28530
+
+
+ Regression Potential
+ --------------------
+
+ Since the fix is a patch provided by upstream (reviewed by maintainers and us)
+ simple mistakes like typos are not expected. The patch impacts only the rwm
+ module which is not loaded by default. So any regression would affect only the
+ users that make use of this overlay. If an user is not using rwm overlay and
is
+ facing any issue, it should be related to other problems related to LDAP
+ directory services.

Hello!
We have faced slapd crash, seems an attacker was trying to brute force one
of our services and uid parsing failures caused slapd crash:
