Summary
Unspecified methods in the RACF Connector component before 1.1.1.0 in ForgeRock OpenIDM and OpenICF improperly call the SearchControls constructor with returnObjFlag set to true, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized Java object, aka LDAP entry poisoning.
