There is a flaw in the way the OpenLDAP slapd daemon handled modified and modrdn request with NOOP control on objects stored in a Berkeley DB (BDB) storage backend. The risk is LOW. An authenticated attacker with permission to perform modify or modrdn operations on such LDAP ojects could cause slapd to crash.

Hi, all:
I'm studying for the RHCE and have hit the section on configuring an OpenLDAP client. I'd like to practice this, but I can't get an OpenLDAP server set up. I followed the directions in RedHat's Deployment Guide, and it looks like the server is up and running, but I can't get the... (0 Replies)

slapd-dnssrv - DNS SRV referral backend to slapd
SYNOPSIS
/etc/ldap/slapd.conf
DESCRIPTION
The DNSSRV backend to slapd(8) serves up referrals based upon SRV resource records held in the Domain Name System.
This backend is experimental.
CONFIGURATION
The DNSSRV backend has no backend nor database specific options. It is configured simply by "database dnssrv" followed a suffix directive,
e.g. suffix "".
ACCESS CONTROL
The dnssrv backend does not honor all ACL semantics as described in slapd.access(5). In fact, this backend only implements the search
operation when the manageDSAit control (RFC 3296) is used, otherwise for every operation a referral, whenever appropriate, or an error is
returned. Currently, there is no means to condition the returning of the referral by means of ACLs; no access control is implemented,
except for read (=r) access to the returned entries, which is actually provided by the frontend. Note, however, that the information
returned by this backend is collected through the DNS, so it is public by definition.
