The optional sshd-ldap component provides support for integrating password and publickey authentication on the server side with an LDAP server.\n\n\n\n\nsshd-ldap is an optional component. SSH servers implemented with Apache MINA SSHD are affected only if they use sshd-ldap and do configure an LdapPasswordAuthenticator to be used for password authentication. Normal password authentication via the built-in mechanisms in sshd-core is _not_ affected by this vulnerability, which concerns only LdapPasswordAuthenticator.\n\n\n\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade affected applications to version 2.20.0 or 3.0.0-M6, which fix this issue.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"midnight","depthScore":50,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":50.1,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
