CVE-2013-0288

nss-pam-ldapd < 0.7.18 and 0.8.x < 0.8.11 - Stack-Based Buffer Overflow via FD_SET Macro Misuse

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

nss-pam-ldapd before 0.7.18 and 0.8.x before 0.8.11 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by performing a name lookup on an application with a large number of open file descriptors, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow related to incorrect use of the FD_SET macro.
