SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA16611

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/16611/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
phpLDAPadmin 0.x
http://secunia.com/product/5631/

DESCRIPTION:
Alexander Gerasiov has reported a security issue in phpLDAPadmin,
which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions.

The security issue is caused due to an error in login.php when
validating whether anonymous bind has been disabled in the
configuration. This can be exploited to access the LDAP server
anonymously, even if anonymous bind has been disabled in the
configuration with the "disable_anon_bind" statement.

The security issue has been reported in 0.9.6c. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Use phpLDAPadmin on trusted networks only.

Some Linux vendors have issued fixed packages.
