CVE-2006-0150

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Multiple format string vulnerabilities were found in the auth_ldap_log_reason function in Apache auth_ldap version 1.6.0 and earlier. Remote attackers can exploit these flaws, for example via a crafted username, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

Risk Assessment

The risk for the organization is critical as an unauthenticated remote attacker could take over the Apache server, leading to data breaches, service disruption, or further attacks on the infrastructure.

Recommendation

Immediately update the auth_ldap library to a version later than 1.6.0 or apply the security patch. If an update is not possible, consider temporarily disabling the auth_ldap module and using alternative LDAP authentication methods.
