The auth_ldap package is an httpd module that allows user authentication
against information stored in an LDAP database.

A format string flaw was found in the way auth_ldap logs information. It
may be possible for a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code as the
‘apache’ user if auth_ldap is used for user authentication. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name CVE-2006-0150
to this issue.

Note that this issue only affects servers that have auth_ldap installed and
configured to perform user authentication against an LDAP database.

All users of auth_ldap should upgrade to this updated package, which
contains a backported patch to resolve this issue.

This issue does not affect the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 or 4
distributions as they do not include the auth_ldap package.
