Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2013-0288 (CCN-82175)

Assigned:2012-12-06
Published:2013-02-18
Updated:2023-02-13
Summary:nss-pam-ldapd before 0.7.18 and 0.8.x before 0.8.11 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by performing a name lookup on an application with a large number of open file descriptors, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow related to incorrect use of the FD_SET macro.
