  - An issue was discovered in LemonLDAP::NG through 2.0.8, when NGINX is used. An attacker may bypass URL-
    based access control to protected Virtual Hosts by submitting a non-normalized URI. This also affects
    versions before 0.5.2 of the "Lemonldap::NG handler for Node.js" package. (CVE-2020-24660)

It was discovered that the default configuration files for running the Lemonldap::NG Web SSO system on the Nginx web server were susceptible to authorisation bypass of URL access rules. The Debian packages do not use Nginx by default.

lemonldap-ng community fixed a vulnerability in the Nginx default configuration files (CVE-2020-24660). Debian package does not install any default site, but documentation provided insecure examples in Nginx configuration before this version. If you use lemonldap-ng handler with Nginx, you should verify your configuration files.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 1.9.7-3+deb9u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your lemonldap-ng packages.
