{"vuid":"VU#276944","idnumber":"276944","name":"iPlanet Directory Server contains multiple vulnerabilities in LDAP handling code","keywords":["Netscape","iPlanet","LDAP","PROTOS"],"overview":"The iPlanet Directory Server contains vulnerabilities that may allow denial-of-service attacks, unauthorized privileged access, or both. These vulnerabilities were revealed using the PROTOS LDAPv3 test suite and are documented in CERT Advisory CA-2001-18. If your site uses this product, the CERT/CC encourages you to follow the advice provided below.","clean_desc":"The iPlanet Directory Server contains multiple vulnerabilities in the code that processes LDAP requests. In the encoding section of the test suite, this product had an indeterminate number of failures in the group that tests invalid BER length of length fields. In the application section of the test suite, this product failed four groups and had inconclusive results for an additional five groups. The four failed groups indicate the presence of buffer overflow vulnerabilities. For the inconclusive groups, the product exhibited suspicious behavior while testing for format string vulnerabilities.","impact":"One or more of these vulnerabilities allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the Directory Server. The server typically runs with system privileges. At least one of these vulnerabilities has been successfully exploited in a laboratory environment under Windows NT 4.0, but they may affect other platforms as well.","resolution":"Apply a patch from your vendor Please consult the Systems Affected section for vendor-specific information on addressing this vulnerability.","workarounds":"Block access to directory services at network perimeter As a temporary measure, it is possible to limit the scope of these vulnerabilities by blocking access to directory services at the network perimeter. Please note that this workaround does not protect vulnerable products from internal attacks. ldap    389/tcp     # Lightweight Directory Access Protocol \n            ldap    389/udp     # Lightweight Directory Access Protocol \n            ldaps   636/tcp     # ldap protocol over TLS/SSL (was sldap) \n            ldaps   636/udp     # ldap protocol over TLS/SSL (was sldap)","sysaffected":"","thanks":"The CERT Coordination Center thanks the Oulu University Secure Programming Group for reporting these vulnerabilities to us, for their detailed technical analyses, and for their assistance in preparing this document.","author":"This document was written by Jeffrey P.
