NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream 389-ds-base-libs package and not the 389-ds-base-libs package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The acllas__handle_group_entry function in servers/plugins/acl/acllas.c in 389 Directory Server before 1.2.10 does not properly handled access control instructions (ACIs) that use certificate groups, which allows remote authenticated LDAP users with a certificate group to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) by binding to the server.
