Package : openldap
CVE ID : none assigned yet
A vulnerability in the handling of normalization with modrdn was
discovered in OpenLDAP, a free implementation of the Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol. An unauthenticated remote attacker can use
this flaw to cause a denial of service (slapd daemon crash) via a
specially crafted packet.
For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.4.47+dfsg-3+deb10u3.
We recommend that you upgrade your openldap packages.
