Title:
  Wrong SHA256-value computed on kinetic

Status in openldap package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The OpenLDAP-contrib module sha2 (located in contrib/slapd-
  modules/passwd/sha2/) computes a wrong SHA256/SSHA256-hash on Ubuntu
  kinetic. This breaks our current password-authentication in ldap.

  
  The problematic computation:

      $ slappasswd -s secret -h '{SHA256}' -o module-load=pw-sha2
      {SHA256}WIrrpN3OjEVOUf6yrH1j+o+ODuUuNBo979Od4UXnu54=

  The (correct) reference-value on the same system (or older ubuntu
  Versions):

      $ echo -n "secret" | openssl dgst -sha256 -binary | openssl enc -base64
      K7gNU3sdo+OL0wNhqoVWhr3g6s1xYv72ol/pe/Unols=

  
  We nailed the problem down to a bug in the gcc-optimizer for strict-aliasing. 
so most probably the gcc-version on kinetic (v12.2.0) is the reason. The 
workaround is to compile the sha2-Module with the flag "-fno-strict-aliasing". 
Then the correct value is computed. An example taken from a git-compiled 
version of OpenLDAP 2.5.13:

      $ ./servers/slapd/slappasswd -T passwd -s secret -h '{SHA256}' -o 
module-load=pw-sha2 -o module-path=contrib/slapd-modules/passwd/sha2/.libs
      {SHA256}K7gNU3sdo+OL0wNhqoVWhr3g6s1xYv72ol/pe/Unols=
