389-ds-base: Authentication bypass due to lack of size check in slapi_ct_memcmp function in ch_malloc.c

Published Jan 24, 2018

Description

It was found that 389-ds-base since 1.3.6.1 up to and including 1.4.0.3 did not always handle internal hash comparison operations correctly during the authentication process. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw to bypass the authentication process under very rare and specific circumstances.
