Descriptions

libraries/libldap/tls_m.c in OpenLDAP, possibly 2.4.31 and earlier, when using the Mozilla NSS backend, always uses the default cipher suite even when TLSCipherSuite is set, which might cause OpenLDAP to use weaker ciphers than intended and make it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

libraries/libldap/tls_m.c en OpenLDAP, posiblemente v2.4.31 y anteriores, cuando se utiliza el "backend" de Mozilla NSS, siempre utiliza la suite de cifrado por defecto incluso cuando TLSCipherSuite está establecido, lo que podría provocar que OpenLDAP use algoritmos de cifrado más débiles que los esperados y que sea más fácil para que los atacantes remotos obtener información sensible.
