DLA-1876-1 gosa -- LTS security update

Date Reported:
11 Aug 2019
Affected Packages:
gosa
Vulnerable:
Yes
Security database references:
In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2019-11187.
More information:

In GOsa², an LDAP web-frontend written in PHP, a vulnerability was found that could theoretically have lead to unauthorized access to the LDAP database managed with FusionDirectory. LDAP queries' result status ("Success") checks had not been strict enough. The resulting output containing the word Success anywhere in the returned data during login connection attempts would have returned LDAP success to FusionDirectory and possibly grant unwanted access.

For Debian 8 Jessie, this problem has been fixed in version 2.7.4+reloaded2-1+deb8u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your gosa packages.
