NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream samba-doc package and not the samba-doc package as distributed by SLES.

A denial of service vulnerability was discovered in Samba's LDAP server before versions 4.7.12, 4.8.7, and 4.9.3. A CNAME loop could lead to infinite recursion in the server. An unprivileged local attacker could create such an entry, leading to denial of service.
