Novell eDirectory is "cross-platform directory server that implements the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). The search request is used to search a directory tree for objects that match a search filter". Remote exploitation of a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in Novell Inc.'s eDirectory could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the affected service.
