3. Description:

OpenLDAP is an open source suite of Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
(LDAP) applications and development tools. LDAP is a set of protocols used
to access and maintain distributed directory information services over an
IP network. The openldap package contains configuration files, libraries,
and documentation for OpenLDAP.

A flaw was found in the way the OpenLDAP server daemon (slapd) parsed
certain Basic Encoding Rules (BER) data. A remote attacker could use this
flaw to crash slapd via a specially crafted packet. (CVE-2015-6908)

All openldap users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

For details on how to apply this update, refer to:

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
