179135: CVE-2006-0451 memory leaks using ber_scanf when handling bad BER packets (CVE-2006-0453)

The MITRE CVE dictionary describes this issue as:

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.
