Zeilenga LDAP No-Op Control [Page 1] INTERNET-DRAFT draft-zeilenga-ldap-noop-10 14 February 2007 Abstract This document defines the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) No-Op control which can be used to disable the normal effect of an operation. The control can be used to discover how a server might react to a particular update request without updating the directory. 1. Overview It is often desirable to be able to determine if a directory operation [RFC4511] would successful complete or not without having the normal effect of the operation take place. For example, an administrative client might want to verify that new user could update their entry (and not other entries) without the directory actually being updated. The mechanism could be used to build more sophisticated security auditing tools. This document defines the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) [RFC4510] No-Op control extension. The presence of the No-Op control in an operation request message disables its normal effect upon the directory which operation would otherwise have. Instead of updating the directory and returning the normal indication of success, the server does not update the directory and indicates so by returning the noOperation resultCode (introduced below). For example, when the No-Op control is present in a LDAP modify operation [RFC4511], the server is do all processing necessary to perform the operation without actually updating the directory. If it detects an error during this processing, it returns a non-success (other than noOperation) resultCode as it normally would. Otherwise, it returns the noOperation. In either case, the directory is left unchanged. This No-Op control is not intended to be to an "effective access" mechanism [RFC2820, U12]. 1.1. Terminology The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119]. DN stands for Distinguished Name. DSA stands for Directory System Agent. DSE stands for DSA-specific entry. Zeilenga LDAP No-Op Control [Page 2] INTERNET-DRAFT draft-zeilenga-ldap-noop-10 14 February 2007 2. No-Op Control The No-Op control is an LDAP Control [RFC4511] whose controlType is IANA-ASSIGNED-OID and controlValue is absent. Clients MUST provide a criticality value of TRUE to prevent unintended modification of the directory. The control is appropriate for request messages of LDAP Add, Delete, Modify and ModifyDN operations [RFC4511]. The control is also appropriate for requests of extended operations which update the directory (or other data stores), such as Password Modify Extended Operation [RFC3062]. There is no corresponding response control. When the control is attached to an LDAP request, the server does all normal processing possible for the operation without modification of the directory. That is, when the control is attached to an LDAP request, the directory SHALL NOT be updated and the response SHALL NOT have a resultCode of success (0). A result code other than noOperation (IANA-ASSIGNED-CODE) means that the server is unable or unwilling to complete the processing for the reason indicated by the result code. A result code of noOperation (IANA-ASSIGNED-CODE) indicates that the server discovered no reason why the operation would fail if submitted without the No-Op control. It is noted that there may be reasons why the operation may fail which are only discoverable when submitting without the No-Op control. Servers SHOULD indicate their support for this control by providing IANA-ASSIGNED-OID as a value of the 'supportedControl' attribute type [RFC4512] in their root DSE entry. A server MAY choose to advertise this extension only when the client is authorized to use this operation. 3. Security Considerations The No-Op control mechanism allows directory administrators and users to verify that access control and other administrative policy controls are properly configured. The mechanism may also lead to the development (and deployment) of more effective security auditing tools. Implementors of this LDAP extension should be familiar with security considerations applicable to the LDAP operations [RFC4511] extended by this control, as well as general LDAP security considerations [Roadmap].
