Debian DLA-2004-1 : 389-ds-base security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 131429

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

A flaw was found in the 'deref' plugin of 389-ds-base where it could use the 'search' permission to display attribute values.

In some configurations, this could allow an authenticated attacker to view private attributes, such as password hashes.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version 1.3.3.5-4+deb8u7.

We recommend that you upgrade your 389-ds-base packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
