CVE-2015-3276  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Oracle:7 openldap-devel to version 0:2.4.40-8.el7 or higher.
This issue was patched in ELSA-2015-2131.

NVD Description

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

The nss_parse_ciphers function in libraries/libldap/tls_m.c in OpenLDAP does not properly parse OpenSSL-style multi-keyword mode cipher strings, which might cause a weaker than intended cipher to be used and allow remote attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors.
