Upgraded cauldron to 1.4.0.18. Tried to do 1.3.9.0 for Mageia 6 but couldn't get it to build. Applied an upstream patch to the existing mga6 code base that just fixes the CVE instead.

Advisory:
========================

Patched 389-ds-base package fixes security vulnerability:

It was discovered that mishandled search requests in servers/slapd/search.c:do_search() in 389-ds-base allows for denial of service (CVE-2018-14648).

BEFORE update
I already had installed:
 389-ds-base-1.3.5.17-1.6.mga6
 389-ds-base-snmp-1.3.5.17-1.6.mga6
 lib64389-ds-base0-1.3.5.17-1.6.mga6

 # systemctl start dirsrv@localhost
failed (I did not first check whether it was already running...).
 # setup-ds.pl
also eventually failed "Error: the server already exists at '/etc/dirsrv/slapd-localhost' Please remove it first if you really want to recreate it,"
which I did:
 # rm -rf /etc/dirsrv/slapd-localhost
after which
 # setup-ds.pl
worked OK with Express setup: "Your new DS instance 'localhost' was successfully created."
Perhaps all this was unnecessary if it was running in the first place.
