    <p>
    The following errors have been discovered in OpenLDAP:
    </p>
    <ul>
    <li>
    Tony Blake discovered an error which exists within the normalisation of
    "objectClasses" (CVE-2007-5707).</li>
    <li>
    Thomas Sesselmann reported that, when running as a proxy-caching server
    the "add_filter_attrs()" function in servers/slapd/overlay/pcache.c
    does not correctly NULL terminate "new_attrs" (CVE-2007-5708).</li>
    <li>
    A double-free bug exists in attrs_free() in the file
    servers/slapd/back-bdb/modrdn.c, which was discovered by Jonathan
    Clarke (CVE-2008-0658).</li>
    </ul>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker can cause a Denial of Serivce by sending a malformed
    "objectClasses" attribute, and via unknown vectors that prevent the
    "new_attrs" array from being NULL terminated, and via a modrdn
    operation with a NOOP (LDAP_X_NO_OPERATION) control.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All OpenLDAP users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-nds/openldap-2.3.41"</code>
  </resolution>
