Red Hat Directory Server 7.1 before SP4 uses insecure permissions for certain directories, which allows local users to modify JAR files and execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.

Richard Megginson discovered a shell command injection flaw in the Admin Server's replication monitor CGI perl script repl-monitor-cgi.pl. Script parameters were not properly sanitized prior to being passed to system() function. An attacker able to access replication monitor CGI script could execute arbitrary shell command with privileges of Admin Server.

Affected versions: - Red Hat Directory Server 7.1 - Admin Server runs with root privileges - Red Hat Directory Server 8 - Admin Server runs under an unprivileged user, following users by default: - nobody on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Solaris - daemon on HP-UX - Fedora Directory Server - Admin Server runs under an unprivileged user, nobody by default

389 Directory Server 1.2.11.15 (aka Red Hat Directory Server before 8.2.11-14) allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (crash) via multiple @ characters in a GER attribute list in a search request.

A flaw was found in how Red Hat Directory Server and the 389 Directory Server would handle access controls to certain attributes of an entry. A user with access to the Directory Server could use a series of searches to guess the values of other attributes that they should not be able to see. If a user had access (authenticated or anonymous, depending on whether or not the Directory Server allows anonymous access), they could use this to obtain information that should be restricted due to access controls.
