Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process. A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. The op_shared_search function in opshared.c does not check for a NULL backend pointer when reusing a paged-results slot in the be_name (USE_ONE_BACKEND control) code path. An unauthenticated client can exploit this by sending two SEARCH requests on the same connection: the first names a non-existent backend via the USE_ONE_BACKEND control with a Simple Paged Results (SPR) empty cookie, storing NULL as the backend in a paged-results slot; the second names a valid backend with an SPR cookie referencing that slot, causing the server to retrieve the stored NULL and call slapi_be_Rlock(NULL), which dereferences the NULL pointer and crashes the ns-slapd process. This is reachable pre-authentication because control and paged-results processing runs before search authorization. Paged results and anonymous access are both enabled by default.
