Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Microsoft Windows, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an incorrect memory allocation when processing LDAP and LDAPS requests. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a specially crafted request.
