389-ds-base-1.3.7.5-19.el7

389 Directory Server is an LDAP version 3 (LDAPv3) compliant server. The base packages include the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server and command-line utilities for server administration.

This update fixes the following bug:

* Directory Server uses the nunc-stans framework to manage connection events. Jobs in this framework can compete to acquire a connection. Previously, in certain situations, a job could loose a connection and still be scheduled. As a consequence, the server managed the wrong job for the connection. This sometimes led to deadlock situations or to Directory Server terminating unexpectedly during runtime. The problem has been fixed and, as a result, deadlocks and crashes during runtime no longer occur. However, under rare conditions, the fix can cause Directory Server to crash during shutdown without data corruption or data loss. This is a known issue and it is tracked in BZ#1517383. (BZ#1563107)

Users of 389-ds-base are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug. After installing this update, the 389 server service will be restarted automatically.
