[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#375494: slapd: buffer overflow on long host names [CVE-2006-2754]

[Martin Pitt]

Package: slapd
Version: 2.2.26-5
Severity: important
Tags: security patch

Hi!

Several distros recently fixed a buffer overflow in slurpd wrt. long
host names in the status file. This should not usually be exploitable,
but it is at least a nice bug fix for crashes. Please see

  http://patches.ubuntu.com/patches/openldap2.2.CVE-2006-2754.diff

for the patch.

Thank you,

Martin
