------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-3496-1 [email protected] https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Guilhem Moulin July 14, 2023 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : lemonldap-ng Version : 2.0.2+ds-7+deb10u9 CVE ID : CVE-2023-28862

Issues were discovered in Lemonldap::NG, an OpenID-Connect, CAS and SAML compatible Web-SSO system, which could lead to impersonation of users with a second factor authentication.

Weak session ID generation in the AuthBasic handler and incorrect failure handling during a password check allow attackers to bypass 2FA verification. Any plugin that tries to deny session creation after the store step does not deny an AuthBasic session.

Using the AuthBasic handler is now refused for users with a second factor. Admins who are *absolutely sure* that such accounts should be able to use AuthBasic handlers (which are password only) can append `and not $ENV{AuthBasic}` to the 2FA activation rules.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 2.0.2+ds-7+deb10u9.

We recommend that you upgrade your lemonldap-ng packages.
