Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ipa-server package and not the ipa-server package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The slapi-nis plug-in before 0.54.2 does not properly reallocate memory when processing user accounts, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) via a request for a (1) group with a large number of members or (2) user that belongs to a large number of groups.
