CVE Descriptions

Double free vulnerability in IBM Tivoli Directory Server (TDS) 6.1.0.0 through 6.1.0.15 allows remote authenticated administrators to cause a denial of service (ABEND) and possibly execute arbitrary code by using ldapadd to attempt to create a duplicate ibm-globalAdminGroup LDAP database entry. NOTE: the vendor states "There is no real risk of a vulnerability," although there are likely scenarios in which a user is allowed to make administrative LDAP requests but does not have the privileges to stop the server.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/30010/info IBM Tivoli Directory Server is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability because the server contains a double-free error. An attacker can exploit this issue to crash the affected server with a SIGSEGV fault, denying service to legitimate users. Tivoli Directory Server 6.1.0.0 - 6.1.0.15 are affected. The following 'ldapadd' entry is sufficient to trigger the issue: dn: globalGroupName=GlobalAdminGroup,cn=ibmpolicies globalGroupName: GlobalAdminGroup objectclass: top objectclass: ibm-globalAdminGroup
