python-ldap provides an object-oriented API for working with LDAP within Python programs. It allows access to LDAP directory servers by wrapping the OpenLDAP 2.x libraries, and contains modules for other LDAP-related tasks (including processing LDIF, LDAPURLs, LDAPv3 schema, etc.).
Security Fix(es):
python-ldap before 3.4.0 is vulnerable to a denial of service when ldap.schema is used for untrusted schema definitions, because of a regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) flaw in the LDAP schema parser. By sending crafted regex input, a remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.(CVE-2021-46823)
