| Title: | Ubuntu USN-305-1 (openldap2.2) |
| Summary: | Ubuntu USN-305-1 (openldap2.2) |
| 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. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-305-1 Risk factor : Medium |
