NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openldap package and not the openldap package as distributed by Ubuntu.

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.
