Fixed In Version: 2.3.43-12.el5_6.4
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
When running the slapd service with the ppolicy overlay enabled, an attempt to delete the "userPassword" attribute could cause the service to terminate unexpectedly, leaving the database in a corrupted state. With this update, an upstream patch has been applied to address this issue, and deleting the "userPassword" attribute no longer causes the slapd service to crash.
