Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

Howard Chu reports :

An ACL of the form 'access to dn.subtree='ou=groups, dc=example,dc=com' attr=member by * selfwrite' is intended to only allow users to add/delete their own DN to the target attribute.
Currently it allows any DNs to be modified.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
