"CVE-2016-5405 389-ds-base: Password verification vulnerable to timing
attack

It was found that 389 Directory Server was vulnerable to a remote
password disclosure via timing attack. A remote attacker could
possibly use this flaw to retrieve directory server password after
many tries.

CVE-2016-5416 389-ds-base: ACI readable by anonymous user

It was found that 389 Directory Server was vulnerable to a flaw in
which the default ACI (Access Control Instructions) could be read by
an anonymous user. This could lead to leakage of sensitive
information.

CVE-2016-4992 389-ds-base: Information disclosure via repeated use of
LDAP ADD operation

An information disclosure flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. A
user with no access to objects in certain LDAP sub-tree could send
LDAP ADD operations with a specific object name. The error message
returned to the user was different based on whether the target object
existed or not."
