Gentoo Linux Security Advisory

Title: phpLDAPadmin: Authentication bypass (GLSA 200509-04)
Severity: low
Exploitable: remote
Date: September 06, 2005
Bug(s): #104293
ID: 200509-04

Synopsis


A flaw in phpLDAPadmin may allow attackers to bypass security restrictions
and connect anonymously.


Background


phpLDAPadmin is a web-based LDAP client allowing to easily manage
LDAP servers.


Affected Packages

Package: net-nds/phpldapadmin
Vulnerable: < 0.9.7_alpha6
Unaffected: >= 0.9.7_alpha6
Architectures: All supported architectures


Description


Alexander Gerasiov discovered a flaw in login.php preventing the
application from validating whether anonymous bind has been disabled in
the target LDAP server configuration.


Impact


Anonymous users can access the LDAP server, even if the
"disable_anon_bind" parameter was explicitly set to avoid this.


Workaround


There is no known workaround at this time.


Resolution


All phpLDAPadmin users should upgrade to the latest version:
Code:
# emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-nds/phpldapadmin-0.9.7_alpha6"
