NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2018-2757.NASL description An update for 389-ds-base is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section. 389 Directory Server is an LDAP version 3 (LDAPv3) compliant server. The base packages include the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server and command-line utilities for server administration. Security Fix(es) : * 389-ds-base: race condition on reference counter leads to DoS using persistent search (CVE-2018-10850) * 389-ds-base: ldapsearch with server side sort allows users to cause a crash (CVE-2018-10935) * 389-ds-base: Server crash through modify command with large DN (CVE-2018-14624) * 389-ds-base: Crash in delete_passwdPolicy when persistent search connections are terminated unexpectedly (CVE-2018-14638) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section. The CVE-2018-10850 issue was discovered by Thierry Bordaz (Red Hat) and the CVE-2018-14638 issue was discovered by Viktor Ashirov (Red Hat). Bug Fix(es) : * Previously, the nucn-stans framework was enabled by default in Directory Server, but the framework is not stable. As a consequence, deadlocks and file descriptor leaks could occur.

An anonymous attacker could use this flaw to trigger a denial of service. (CVE-2018-10850) - It was found that 389-ds-base did not properly handle long search filters with characters needing escapes, possibly leading to buffer overflows. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw to make ns-slapd crash via a specially crafted LDAP request, thus resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2018-1089) - A vulnerability was discovered in 389-ds-base. The lock controlling the error log was not correctly used when re-opening the log file in log__error_emergency(). An attacker could send a flood of modifications to a very large DN, which would cause slapd to crash. (CVE-2018-14624) - A double-free of a password policy structure was found in the way slapd was handling certain errors during persistent search.
