ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1778892584 advisory.

  - A denial of service vulnerability was found in 389-ds-base ldap server. This issue may allow an
    authenticated user to cause a server crash while modifying `userPassword` using malformed input.
    (CVE-2024-2199)

  - A denial of service vulnerability was found in the 389-ds-base LDAP server. This issue may allow an
    authenticated user to cause a server denial of service while attempting to log in with a user with a
    malformed hash in their password. (CVE-2024-5953)

  - A flaw was found in the 389-ds-base LDAP Server. This issue occurs when issuing a Modify DN LDAP operation
    through the ldap protocol, when the function return value is not tested and a NULL pointer is
    dereferenced. If a privileged user performs a ldap MODDN operation after a failed operation, it could lead
    to a Denial of Service (DoS) or system crash. (CVE-2025-2487)

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