NewStart CGSL MAIN 4.05 : 389-ds-base Multiple Vulnerabilities (NS-SA-2019-0123)

high Nessus Plugin ID 127369

Synopsis

The remote machine is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 4.05, has 389-ds-base packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- An out-of-bounds memory read flaw was found in the way 389-ds-base handled certain LDAP search filters. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw to make ns-slapd crash via a specially crafted LDAP request, thus resulting in denial of service.
(CVE-2018-1054)

- It was found that 389-ds-base did not always handle internal hash comparison operations correctly during the authentication process. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw to bypass the authentication process under very rare and specific circumstances. (CVE-2017-15135)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL 389-ds-base packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
