"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has 389-ds-base packages installed that are
affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A race condition was found in the way 389-ds-base
    handles persistent search, resulting in a crash if the
    server is under load. An anonymous attacker could use
    this flaw to trigger a denial of service.
    (CVE-2018-10850)

  - It was found that 389-ds-base did not properly handle
    long search filters with characters needing escapes,
    possibly leading to buffer overflows. A remote,
    unauthenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw
    to make ns-slapd crash via a specially crafted LDAP
    request, thus resulting in denial of service.
    (CVE-2018-1089)

  - A vulnerability was discovered in 389-ds-base. The lock
    controlling the error log was not correctly used when
    re-opening the log file in log__error_emergency(). An
    attacker could send a flood of modifications to a very
    large DN, which would cause slapd to crash.
    (CVE-2018-14624)

  - A double-free of a password policy structure was found
    in the way slapd was handling certain errors during
    persistent search. A unauthenticated attacker could use
    this flaw to crash Directory Server. (CVE-2018-14638)

  - A flaw was found in the 389 Directory Server that allows
    users to cause a crash in the LDAP server using
    ldapsearch with server side sort. (CVE-2018-10935)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
