RHBA-2011:0803 - ldapjdk bug fix update


Synopsis

ldapjdk bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

An updated ldapjdk package that fixes one bug is now available.

Description

The Mozilla LDAP SDKs enable you to write applications which access, manage, and update the information stored in an LDAP directory.

When parsing an attribute definition from a directory server schema entry, the ldapjdk parser did not properly handle the ORDERING and SUBSTR matching rule specifications.

This bug was being encountered by:

  1. RHDS customers using the 389-ds-console code; -or-
  2. Custom applications while using the LDAPSchemaElement.getOptionalValues() or LDAPAttributeSchema.getValue() methods to get a string representation of an LDAP attribute that has multiple matching rule types present.

The offending method in ldapjdk was fixed so that new attributes with multiple matching rule types are created properly. (BZ#684028)

An updated package that fixes this bug is now available.
