Title: RSA Keon Certificate Authority LDAP Denial of Service Vulnerability

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is designed to be a lightweight access protocol for directory services supporting X.500 models. It offers a means of searching, fetching and manipulating directory content.

Secure Directory Server is a component of RSA's Keon Certificate Authority.

A possible denial of service vulnerability has been found to exist in RSA Secure Directory Server's LDAP implementation. The condition was discovered when RSA performed an internal audit after the publication of CERT advisory CA-2001-18. The problem enables remote attackers to cause an affected Secure Directory Server to crash, resulting in a denial of service condition.

Further technical details are not available at this time.

Affected Products:

  • RSA Security Keon Certificate Authority 5.7.0
