openldap vulnerabilities


A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

  • Ubuntu 19.04
  • Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
  • Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Summary


Several security issues were fixed in OpenLDAP.

Software Description

  • openldap - OpenLDAP utilities
Details


It was discovered that OpenLDAP incorrectly handled rootDN delegation. A database administrator could use this issue to request authorization as an identity from another database, contrary to expectations. (CVE-2019-13057)

It was discovered that OpenLDAP incorrectly handled SASL authentication and session encryption. After a first SASL bind was completed, it was possible to obtain access by performing simple binds, contrary to expectations. (CVE-2019-13565)
