Cameron Hotchkies discovered an error within the parsing of ASN.1 BER
|
|
encoded packets in the "ber_get_next()" function in
|
|
libraries/liblber/io.c.

<impact type="low">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote unauthenticated attacker can send a specially crafted ASN.1
|
|
BER encoded packet which will trigger the error and cause an
|
|
"assert()", terminating the "slapd" daemon.

<workaround>
|

There is no known workaround at this time.

</workaround>

<resolution>
|

<p>
|

All OpenLDAP users should upgrade to the latest version:
|

|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-nds/openldap-2.3.43"</code>
