A flaw was found in the way OpenLDAP parsed OpenSSL-style cipher strings. As a result, OpenLDAP could potentially use ciphers that were not intended to be enabled. (CVE-2015-3276)
The openldap packages have been upgraded to upstream version 2.4.40, which provides a number of bug fixes and one enhancement over the previous version :
This update also fixes the following bugs :
Previously, OpenLDAP did not properly handle a number of simultaneous updates. As a consequence, sending a number of parallel update requests to the server could cause a deadlock. With this update, a superfluous locking mechanism causing the deadlock has been removed, thus fixing the bug.
The httpd service sometimes terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault on the libldap library unload. The underlying source code has been modified to prevent a bad memory access error that caused the bug to occur. As a result, httpd no longer crashes in this situation.
After upgrading the system from Scientific Linux 6 to Scientific Linux 7, symbolic links to certain libraries unexpectedly pointed to locations belonging to the openldap-devel package. If the user uninstalled openldap- devel, the symbolic links were broken and the ‘rpm -V openldap’ command sometimes produced errors.
With this update, the symbolic links no longer get broken in the described situation. If the user downgrades openldap to version 2.4.39-6 or earlier, the symbolic links might break. After such downgrade, it is recommended to verify that the symbolic links did not break. To do this, make sure the yum-plugin-verify package is installed and obtain the target libraries by running the ‘rpm -V openldap’ or ‘yum verify openldap’ command.
In addition, this update adds the following enhancement :

The openldap packages have been upgraded to upstream version 2.4.40,
which provides a number of bug fixes and one enhancement over the
previous version :
- The ORDERING matching rules have been added to the
ppolicy attribute type descriptions. * The server no
longer terminates unexpectedly when processing SRV
records. * Missing objectClass information has been
added, which enables the user to modify the front-end
configuration by standard means.

to maintain the default cipher suites manually in the
OpenLDAP source code."
