CVE-2026-76560

HighCVSS 7.5
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

A flaw in 389 Directory Server in the SELFDN ACI bind-rule evaluator. An anonymous LDAP client's empty bind DN is incorrectly matched against an empty stored attribute value, allowing an unauthenticated client to satisfy access control checks intended for authenticated identities. This can allow anonymous clients to perform operations like adding or modifying entries that should be restricted to specific authenticated users.

Risk Assessment

An anonymous attacker could modify directory entries, potentially leading to data integrity breaches and unauthorized changes in the system.

Recommendation

Apply patches from the vendor for 389 Directory Server. Review SELFDN ACI rules and ensure they do not allow anonymous access to sensitive operations.

Original NVD description (English source)

A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. The SELFDN ACI bind-rule evaluator incorrectly matches an anonymous LDAP client's empty bind DN against an empty stored attribute value, allowing an unauthenticated client to satisfy access control checks intended to require a matching authenticated identity. This can allow an anonymous LDAP client to perform an operation, such as adding or modifying a directory entry, that a SELFDN-based ACI intended to restrict to a specific authenticated user.
