openldap is vulnerable to man-in-the-middle (MitM). The vulnerability exists as a flaw was found in the way OpenLDAP handled NUL characters in the CommonName field of X.509 certificates. An attacker able to get a carefully-crafted certificate signed by a trusted Certificate Authority could trick applications using OpenLDAP libraries into accepting it by mistake.
