This issue was patched in RHSA-2019:3981.

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 RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the 'deref' plugin of 389-ds-base where it could use the 'search' permission to display attribute values. In some configurations, this could allow an authenticated attacker to view private attributes, such as password hashes.
