1) Introduction
===============
IBM Tivoli Directory Server (ITDS), formerly known as IBM Directory Server,
is an IBM implementation of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol,
and is part of the IBM Tivoli Identity & Access Management portfolio.
IBM Tivoli Directory Server is a powerful, security-rich and standards-compliant
enterprise directory for corporate intranets and the Internet. Directory Server is
built to serve as the identity data foundation for rapid development and deployment
of Web applications and security and identity management initiatives by including
strong management, replication and security features.Several authentication methods
are available with IBM Tivoli Directory Server, beyond basic usernames and passwords.
ITDS supports digital certificate-based authentication, the Simple Authentication and
Security Layer (SASL), Challenge-Response Authentication Mechanism MD5 (CRAM-MD5),
and Kerberos authentication.IBM Tivoli Directory Server is a powerful LDAP
infrastructure that provides a foundation for deploying comprehensive identity management
applications and advanced software architectures.

3) Technical details
====================
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable
installations of IBM Tivoli Directory Server. Authentication is not required to
exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists in how ibmslapd.exe handles
LDAP CRAM-MD5 packets. ibmslapd.exe listens by default on port TCP 389. When the
process receives an LDAP CRAM-MD5 packet, it uses libibmldap.dll to handle the
allocation of a buffer for the packet data. A specially crafted packet can cause
the ber_get_int function to allocate a buffer that is too small to fit the packet
data, causing a subsequent stack-based buffer overflow. This can be leveraged by
a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code under the context of the SYSTEM user.
