L'autenticazione LDAP di PowerFlex 3.x non riesce in Ubuntu 16.04 e versioni successive

Scenario
PowerFlex 3.5 e versioni successive, in esecuzione su Ubuntu 16.04 e versioni successive, non esegue l'accesso tramite LDAP e riavvia il servizio MDM. 

Sintomi
Errore del comando SCLI:

 root@ubuntu16-mdm1# date; scli --login --username test_user --password test_password --ldap_authentication
Wed Dec 15 03:09:03 EST 2021

Le tracce MDM mostrano che un tentativo di autenticazione LDAP non si avvia nemmeno e il servizio MDM si riavvia gradualmente, mdmNet_AbnormalExitCK: 00334: Metterà in pausa la rete, con il segnale 6 (SIGABRT = comunemente usato per interrompere il programma in caso di errori critici):

Impatto

 Gli utenti autenticati LDAP non possono accedere a MDM. Switchover di MDM a ogni tentativo LDAP

Si tratta di un problema relativo al sistema operativo, specifico di Ubuntu quando si utilizza OpenLDAP.

Quando la funzione interna di PowerFlex tenta di copiare il numero di caratteri baseDn nella richiesta di autenticazione, utilizza la dimensione hardcoded dei caratteri char[256] LdapDn, che è 256, dove il massimo per avviare una richiesta di connessione è 128 caratteri, rappresentato da FQDN(char[128]).

Il massimo per avviare una richiesta di connessione è di 128 caratteri, di conseguenza, il tentativo di inviare una richiesta di autenticazione causa un overflow del buffer.

In altri sistemi operativi, l'operazione di copia copia il numero minimo di caratteri nel nome di dominio completo (char[128]), ovvero il numero di caratteri reali (meno di 128). In Ubuntu, copia la lunghezza del carattere LdapDn[256], che è 256.
