MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Windows LDAP versions prior to the fixed version
Description
The issue is related to uncontrolled resource consumption in the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) of Microsoft Windows operating systems. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a denial of service. The protocol allows an unauthorized attacker to deny service over a network.
Recommendations
For Windows LDAP versions prior to the fixed version, update to the latest version to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the LDAP service to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Avoid using the vulnerable LDAP protocol until the issue is resolved.
