+  <title>OpenLDAP: Denial of Service vulnerability</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    A flaw in OpenLDAP allows remote unauthenticated attackers to cause a
+    Denial of Service.

+    OpenLDAP is a suite of LDAP-related applications and development tools.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Evgeny Legerov has discovered that the truncation of an incoming
+    authcid longer than 255 characters and ending with a space as the 255th
+    character will lead to an improperly computed name length. This will
+    trigger an assert in the libldap code.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    By sending a BIND request with a specially crafted authcid parameter to
+    an OpenLDAP service, a remote attacker can cause the service to crash.
+    </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 &quot;net-nds/openldap&quot;</code>
