description

Apache MINA SSHD applications using the optional sshd-ldap module for LDAP-backed password or public-key authentication are affected. A remote attacker may bypass authentication through improper handling of LDAP filter input; deployments not using sshd-ldap for these authentication methods are not affected.

mitigation

Upgrade org.apache.sshd:sshd-ldap to version 2.20.0 or 3.0.0-M6. Until upgraded, disable use of sshd-ldap for LDAP-backed password and public-key authentication where feasible.

fixed in 2.20.0, 3.0.0-M6
