Description:
According to a Secunia security advisory [0], a weakness exists in
OpenLDAP [1] which is caused due to a boundary error in slurpd(8)
within the handling of the status file. This can be exploited to cause
a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long hostname read from
the status file. The weakness has been reported to be in OpenLDAP
version 2.3.21 and earlier.
