(ITS#8066) mdb_load truncates long values when resizing buffer
Full_Name: Pierre Chapuis
Version: master
OS: GNU/Linux
URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/
Submission from: (NULL) (82.238.40.212)
Description:
Starting from 2048, the first input line larger than any power of two N
is truncated to N-1. This results in truncated values in the database.
Explanation:
In the code that resizes the input buffer, fgets() is used.
fgets(*, n, *) reads a maximum of n-1 characters and 0-terminates
the string. When the next chunk is read, the '\0' remains in the
string. Later, strlen() is used and the string is truncated.
Proposed fix:
A patch against the current OpenLDAP master llllows.
