CVE-2007-1739: Buffer Overflow
First published: Wed Mar 28 2007(Updated: )
Heap-based buffer overflow in the LDAP server in IBM Lotus Domino before 6.5.6 and 7.x before 7.0.2 FP1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long, malformed DN request, which causes only the lower 16 bits of the string length to be used in memory allocation.
