Last modified

CVE-2013-0288 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. 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.. EPSS estimates a 3.58% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
