Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0206-01 - OpenLDAP is an open source suite of Lightweight Directory Access Protocol 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 denial of service flaw was found in the way the OpenLDAP server daemon performed reference counting when using the rwm overlay. A remote attacker able to query the OpenLDAP server could use this flaw to crash the server by immediately unbinding from the server after sending a search request.
