openldap2: The New OpenLDAP Server (LDAPv3) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- File: openldap2-2.3.27-34.ppc.rpm Patchrpm: openldap2-2.3.27-34.ppc.patch.rpm Version: 2.3.27-34 Size: 1286 kB Patchsize: 727 kB Date: Wed 13 Aug 2008 2:31:27 CEST Source: openldap2-2.3.27-34.src.rpm Security: Yes ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Description: This update fixes a security problem in the liblber client library of openldap that allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (program termination) via crafted ASN.1 BER datagrams, which triggers an assertion error. (CVE-2008-2952) Additionally a bug was fixed in ldap_free_connection which could result in client crashes when the server closed a connection while an operation is active.
