Multiple memory leaks in the LDAP component in Fedora Directory Server 1.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via invalid BER packets that trigger an error, which might prevent memory from being freed if it was allocated during the ber_scanf call, as demonstrated using the ProtoVer LDAP test suite.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2006-0451 is a denial-of-service issue in Fedora Directory Server 1.0. Malformed LDAP data can make the server leak memory, potentially degrading or stopping directory services. The bundle does not provide a CVSS score or confirmed patch details. Exposure is most likely where Fedora Directory Server 1.0 or derived legacy LDAP services are reachable by untrusted networks. The bundle does not identify broader affected products or CPEs. Treat this as a legacy availability risk. It matters most if directory services support authentication, applications, or business operations and are exposed beyond trusted networks. Mitigation focus: Check Red Hat or Fedora Directory Server guidance for fixed packages or vendor-recommended mitigations.; Restrict LDAP access to trusted networks and authenticated clients where operationally possible.; Monitor directory server memory use and service restarts for abnormal growth..
