Summary
ldb vulnerabilities
Details

Thilo Uttendorfer discovered that the ldb incorrectly handled certain zero values. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause applications using ldb, such as Samba, to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-3223)

Douglas Bagnall discovered that ldb incorrectly handled certain string lengths. A remote attacker could use this issue to possibly access sensitive information from memory of applications using ldb, such as Samba. (CVE-2015-5330)
