TITLE:
Novell eDirectory Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34160

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34160/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Novell eDirectory, which
can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).

1) An off-by-one error exists in the iMonitor component when
processing HTTP requests. This can be exploited to cause a
stack-based buffer overflow and crash an affected server via an HTTP
request having a specially crafted "Accept-Language" header.

The vulnerability is confirmed in versions 8.8 SP3 and 8.8 SP3 FTF3.
Other versions may also be affected.

2) An unspecified error when using multiple wild cards in RDNs can
potentially be exploited to crash ndsd.

3) An unspecified error in the processing of LDAP packets can be
exploited to cause a crash.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 8.8 SP5.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
1) Alin Rad Pop, Secunia Research
2, 3) Reported by the vendor.
