Mandriva Linux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________

Package name: nss_ldap
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2005:190
Date: October 20th, 2005

Affected versions: 10.1, 10.2
______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

A bug was found in the way the pam_ldap module processed certain failure
messages. If the server includes supplemental data in an authentication
failure result message, but the data does not include any specific error
code, the pam_ldap module would proceed as if the authentication request
had succeeded, and authentication would succeed. This affects versions
169 through 179 of pam_ldap.

The updated packages have been patched to address this issue.
