As a RHEL customer, you have access to the portal, so you can go to 
https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/rhel---6/x86_64/168/389-ds-base/1.2.11.15-50.el6_6/x86_64/fd431d51/package 
and look at the changelog for the 389-ds-base package.  This has 
descriptions of the changes along with bugzilla bug number and sometimes 
389 trac ticket numbers.

There's probably some way to get a list of all errata for the 
389-ds-base package in RHEL6, but I can't seem to find it.
