fixed in 1.3.1.15 CVE-2013-4485 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-4485): 389 Directory Server 1.2.11.15 (aka Red Hat Directory Server before 8.2.11-14) allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (crash) via multiple @ characters in a GER attribute list in a search request. Hi, We have updated 389-ds-base to 1.3.4.7. This should resolve the issue. Thanks, Referenced commit 5a7174bf7122309eee568651fb5f3413155f9fc2 No vulnerable versions in tree. |
From ${URL} : A flaw in how 389-ds-base and Red Hat Directory Server handled the checking of access rights on entries using GER (Get Effective Rights), a way to extend directory searches to also display what access rights a user has to a specified entry. When an attribute list is given in the search request, and if there are several attributes whose names contain the '@' character, 389-ds-base and Red Hat Directory Server would crash. An attacker able to contact the server would be able to submit this type of search request with no authentication required. @maintainer(s): since the package has never been marked as stable, we don't need to stabilize it. Please remove the affected versions from the tree.
