When an LDAP referral is returned during authentication, the system does not properly escape the username input. This allows an attacker to inject LDAP filter metacharacters, enabling user-existence oracle attacks at the referral Directory Name (DN). This could also potentially influence which DN is used for password binding in multi-domain Active Directory environments.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `openshift-update-service/openshift-update-service-rhel8 (all versions)`\n- `quay/quay-rhel8 (all versions)`\n- `quay/quay-rhel9 (all versions)`\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nMitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":26,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":26.4,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
