The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in the way 389-ds-base handles persistent search. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request that submits malicious input and cause the system to crash.


2) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-10935)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear
