Issue ID: 9615
Summary: ppolicy pwcheck module should be a configuration
setting
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: 2.5.5
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: ---
Component: overlays
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
With the current implementation, the external pwcheck module for ppolicy is dl
opened every time a given password policy is checked during a password modify
operation. This appears to be problematic because eventually systems start
reporting:
check_password_quality: lt_dlopen failed: (ppm.so) file not found."
There's really zero reason for this functionality to be implemented this way.
Instead, an external password policy check module should be defined as a
password policy config item, and then whether or not to use it remains a part
of a given policy. This means the external module will only need to be opened
a single time.
