    Summary: Updated openldap packages fix CVE-2015-1545

    Details: Updated openldap packages fix security vulnerability: The deref overlay in slapd 2.4.13 through 2.4.40 dereferences a NULL pointer when a search request includes the Deref control with an empty list of attributes to return (missing input validation). This allows a remote unauthenticated client to crash the LDAP server (CVE-2015-1545).
