Summary

The FTP server in Novell NetWare prior to version 5.04.25 is susceptible to a Denial of Service condition when it fails to close Directory Services (DS) sessions promptly. This flaw allows remote attackers to exhaust connection slots by establishing multiple persistent FTP sessions. As these sessions remain open for the duration of a DS session, it can lead to service disruptions for legitimate users by filling available connection slots and denying further sessions.
