---------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Support recursive group resolution in LDAP Proxy Service
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KNOX-3328
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-3328
> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Server
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Sandor Molnar
> Assignee: Sandor Molnar
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.0.0

> Time Spent: 5h 20m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> The current Knox LDAP proxy implementation only supports direct group
> memberships for users. When a client queries for a user's {{memberOf}}
> attribute, Knox only returns the groups where the user is an explicit member,
> ignoring any transitive or nested group memberships.
> Additionally, group entries themselves are not enriched with the {{memberOf}}
> attribute, making it difficult for clients to walk the hierarchy manually.
> This task implements:
> # Recursive group resolution for both search-based and {{memberOf}}-based
> lookups.
> # Strict cycle detection to prevent infinite loops in misconfigured LDAP
> environments.
> # Configurable depth limits to prevent performance degradation.
> # Enrichment of group-type entries with the {{memberOf}} attribute, allowing
> clients to see parent group memberships.
