3. Problem description:

OpenLDAP is an open source suite of LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) applications, libraries and development tools.

A flaw was found in the way OpenLDAP handled selfwrite access. Users with selfwrite access were able to modify the distinguished name of any user. Users with selfwrite access should only be able to modify their own distinguished name. (CVE-2006-4600)

A memory leak bug was found in OpenLDAP's ldap_start_tls_s() function. An application using this function could result in an Out Of Memory (OOM) condition, crashing the application.

All users are advised to upgrade to this updated openldap package, which contains a backported fix and is not vulnerable to these issues.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_58_10188

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
