Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57056
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-305-1 (openldap2.2)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to openldap2.2
announced via advisory USN-305-1.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.04
Ubuntu 5.10
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

When processing overly long host names in OpenLDAP's slurpd replication
server, a buffer overflow caused slurpd to crash.

If an attacker manages to inject a specially crafted host name into
slurpd, this might also be exploited to execute arbitrary code with
slurpd's privileges
however, since slurpd is usually set up to
replicate only trusted machines, this should not be exploitable in
normal cases.

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 5.04:
slapd 2.1.30-3ubuntu3.2

Ubuntu 5.10:
slapd 2.2.26-3ubuntu0.1

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
slapd 2.2.26-5ubuntu2.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.
