Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions openldap2 versions prior to 2.6.3-404.1

Description The issue is related to an Untrusted Search Path vulnerability in openldap2, which allows local attackers with control of the ldap user or group to change ownership of arbitrary directory entries to this user/group, leading to escalation to root.

Recommendations For openldap2 versions prior to 2.6.3-404.1, update to version 2.6.3-404.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the ldap user or group to minimize the risk of exploitation.
