Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for 389-ds-base.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2018:2757 advisory.

- 389-ds-base: race condition on reference counter leads to DoS using persistent search (CVE-2018-10850)

- 389-ds-base: ldapsearch with server side sort allows users to cause a crash (CVE-2018-10935)
