Summary

A vulnerability was determined in opsre go-ldap-admin up to 20251011. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file docs/docker-compose/docker-compose.yaml of the component JWT Handler. Manipulation of the argument secret key can lead to use of hard-coded cryptographic key. The attack can be launched remotely. Attacks of this nature are highly complex. The exploitability is assessed as difficult. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized.

Risk Assessment

Use of a hard-coded cryptographic key may allow an attacker to forge JWT tokens, leading to unauthorized access. Due to the high complexity of the attack, the risk is limited, but the exploit is publicly available.

Recommendation

Replace the hard-coded key in docker-compose.yaml with a randomly generated and securely stored secret. Update go-ldap-admin to the latest version and monitor for exploitation attempts.
