Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.66455
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-1943-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'openldap, openldap2.3' package(s) announced via the DSA-1943-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'openldap, openldap2.3' package(s) announced via the DSA-1943-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that OpenLDAP, a free implementation of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, when OpenSSL is used, does not properly handle a '0' character in a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) field of an X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority.

For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 2.3.30-5+etch3 for openldap2.3.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 2.4.11-1+lenny1 for openldap.

For the testing distribution (squeeze), and the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2.4.17-2.1 for openldap.

We recommend that you upgrade your openldap2.3/openldap packages.

Affected Software/OS:
'openldap, openldap2.3' package(s) on Debian 4, Debian 5.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
