CVE-2026-18922
389-ds-base: 389-ds-base: SASL PLAIN authentication allows privilege escalation to Directory Manager via stale identity in Cyrus SASL auxiliary property
Severity by source
Trivy's own label is CRITICAL. Rated critical by Red Hat, AlmaLinux, Amazon, Oracle, Rocky Linux.
Description
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. During SASL PLAIN authentication, a stale identity carried in a Cyrus SASL auxiliary property from a prior failed bind attempt can be installed on a connection following a subsequent, unrelated successful bind, regardless of which SASL mechanism completes that second bind. An attacker can send a SASL PLAIN bind as cn=Directory Manager with an incorrect password, then complete a SASL ANONYMOUS bind on the same connection, causing the server to grant Directory Manager authority without any valid credentials. A variant using a valid low-privileged account's own successful bind instead of an anonymous one is also possible.
