CVE-2020-25692
CVSS v2.0
7.8
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
OpenLDAP versions prior to 2.4.55
Description:
The issue is related to a NULL pointer dereference in the OpenLDAP server, specifically during a request for renaming RDNs. This can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker to remotely crash the slapd process by sending a specially crafted request, resulting in a Denial of Service.
Recommendations:
For versions prior to 2.4.55, update to version 2.4.55 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the renaming RDNs functionality until a patch is applied.
