A vulnerability was identified in OpenLDAP and pam_ldap, which could be exploited by attackers to disclose sensitive information. The problem is that OpenLDAP when connecting to a slave using TLS, does not use TLS for the subsequent connection if the client is referred to a master, which causes passwords to be sent in cleartext and allows remote attackers to sniff the password.
