  - An issue was discovered in OpenLDAP 2.x before 2.4.48. When using SASL authentication and session
    encryption, and relying on the SASL security layers in slapd access controls, it is possible to obtain
    access that would otherwise be denied via a simple bind for any identity covered in those ACLs. After the
    first SASL bind is completed, the sasl_ssf value is retained for all new non-SASL connections. Depending
    on the ACL configuration, this can affect different types of operations (searches, modifications, etc.).
    In other words, a successful authorization step completed by one user affects the authorization
    requirement for a different user. (CVE-2019-13565)

  - In filter.c in slapd in OpenLDAP before 2.4.50, LDAP search filters with nested boolean expressions can
    result in denial of service (daemon crash). (CVE-2020-12243)

  - A NULL pointer dereference was found in OpenLDAP server and was fixed in openldap 2.4.55, during a request
    for renaming RDNs. An unauthenticated attacker could remotely crash the slapd process by sending a
    specially crafted request, causing a Denial of Service. (CVE-2020-25692)

  - A flaw was found in OpenLDAP. This flaw allows an attacker who can send a malicious packet to be processed
    by OpenLDAP's slapd server, to trigger an assertion failure. The highest threat from this vulnerability is
    to system availability. (CVE-2020-25709)

  - A flaw was found in OpenLDAP in versions before 2.4.56. This flaw allows an attacker who sends a malicious
    packet processed by OpenLDAP to force a failed assertion in csnNormalize23(). The highest threat from this
    vulnerability is to system availability. (CVE-2020-25710)

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