Issue

A third party application occasionally crashes with segmentation fault in /lib64/libnss_ldap.so.2. The customer is using RHEL 6.3 with Caringo software. Caringo software support suspects that one of the RHEL shared libraries (/lib64/libnss_ldap.so.2) is responsible for their software crash.

This issue is also known to affect the Apache web server.
