DESCRIPTION:
Evgeny Legerov has reported a vulnerability in Isode M-Vault Server,
which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service) and potentially compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the LDAP server within
the handling of certain requests. This can be exploited to cause a
double free error which crashes the service and may allow arbitrary
code execution via a specially-crafted request sent to port 389/tcp.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 11.3. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Restrict access to the LDAP service.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
