    DESCRIPTION
     OpenLDAP[1] is an LDAPv2 and LDAPv3 server available for several
     platforms.
     
     The SuSE Security Team reviewed critical parts of the OpenLDAP code
     and found several remote and local vulnerabilities, all fixed in this
     update.
     
     The vulnerabilities consists mainly in buffer overflows in both the
     OpenLDAP server and in the libraries provided with the OpenLDAP
     package. Some of these vulnerabilities can be exploited by attackers
     remotely or locally to compromise the OpenLDAP server or applications
     linked against the vulnerable libraries.
     
     Conectiva Linux 6.0 users should atent to the fact that the package
     openldap2 here updated was released as "experimental" in that
     distribution.
    
    
    SOLUTION
     It is recommended that all OpenLDAP 2.x users upgrade their packages.
     If the service is already running, the upgrade will automatically
     restart it.
