This is going to have an impact on availability. CVE summarizes:

Multiple memory leaks in the LDAP component in Fedora Directory Server 1.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via invalid BER packets that trigger an error, which might prevent memory from being freed if it was allocated during the ber_scanf call, as demonstrated using the ProtoVer LDAP test suite.

The weakness was shared 02/14/2006 by Evgeny Legerov as Bug 179135 as confirmed bug report (Bugzilla). The advisory is shared for download at bugzilla.redhat.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2006-0451 since 01/27/2006. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely.
