Description Jan Lieskovsky 2012-03-05 10:26:21 UTC
Originally (2012-03-01), the following cross-site (XSS) flaws were reported against LDAP Account Manager Pro (from Secunia advisory [1]):
* 1) Input passed to e.g. the "filteruid" POST parameter when filtering result sets in lam/templates/lists/list.php (when "type" is set to a valid value) is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

* 2) Input passed to the "filter" POST parameter in lam/templates/3rdParty/pla/htdocs/cmd.php (when "cmd" is set to "export" and "exporter_id" is set to "LDIF") is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

* 3) Input passed to the "attr" parameter in lam/templates/3rdParty/pla/htdocs/cmd.php (when "cmd" is set to "add_value_form" and "dn" is set to a valid value) is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Later (2012-03-03), it was reported:
[3] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=662050#15

that subset (for 'export', 'add_value_form', and 'dn' variables) of these security flaws is applicable also against the code of PhpLDAPadmin, a web-based LDAP client.

Patches from LDAP Account Manager, which are applicable to PphLDAPAdmin:
[4] http://lam.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lam/lam/templates/3rdParty/pla/lib/export_functions.php?r1=1.4&r2=1.5
[5] http://lam.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lam/lam/templates/3rdParty/pla/htdocs/export.php?r1=1.1&r2=1.2
[6] http://lam.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lam/lam/templates/3rdParty/pla/htdocs/add_value_form.php?r1=1.6&r2=1.7

Comment 1 Jan Lieskovsky 2012-03-05 10:38:58 UTC
These issues affect the versions of the phpldapadmin package, as shipped with Fedora release of 15 and 16. Please schedule an update.

--

These issues affect the versions of the phpldapadmin package, as shipped with Fedora EPEL 6 and Fedora EPEL 5 (though the latter one might require the proposed patches above to be backported to older PhpLDAPAdmin version being present). Please schedule an update.

Created phpldapadmin tracking bugs for this issue

Affects: fedora-all [bug 799878]

Comment 4 Jan Lieskovsky 2012-03-05 11:04:40 UTC
Created phpldapadmin tracking bugs for this issue

Affects: epel-6 [bug 799891]
Affects: epel-5 [bug 799892]

Comment 5 Dmitry Butskoy 2012-03-06 14:55:03 UTC
It seems that the patches present perform fix for the bundled, reduced version in LDAP Account manager only. Better to ask upstream anyway.

Reported upstream, https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3497660&group_id=61828&atid=498546
