Why It Matters

In OpenLDAP 2.x before 2.5.12 and 2.6.x before 2.6.2, a SQL injection vulnerability exists in the experimental back-sql backend to slapd, via a SQL statement within an LDAP query. This can occur during an LDAP search operation when the search filter is processed, due to a lack of proper escaping.

Suggested hunting (rule-based inference)

SecOps Signal recommendation (rule-based inference). These steps are hunting hypotheses from the vulnerability class; they do not state or imply that exploitation occurred here or anywhere.

Matched sql-injection (CWE-89); network-unauthenticated (CVSS AV:N, CVSS PR:N, CVSS UI:N)

Exposure

  1. Locate the affected application endpoint and confirm its deployed version.Telemetry: Application access logs · The CWE describes a weakness class, not which local endpoint is affected. · Rule sql-injection
  2. Identify devices reporting this CVE and note which expose the affected service to untrusted networks.Telemetry: DeviceTvmSoftwareVulnerabilities · A network-reachable, no-privilege vector makes internet-facing instances the first exposure question. · Rule network-unauthenticated

Exploitation evidence

  1. Review requests to the affected endpoint for unusual query syntax and response anomalies.Telemetry: Application access logs · Request and error patterns can guide an SQL injection investigation. · Rule sql-injection
Show more (2)

Exploitation evidence

  1. Review inbound connections to the affected service from unexpected sources since the advisory date.Telemetry: DeviceNetworkEvents · Hunting hypothesis from the CVSS vector; it does not show that exploitation occurred. · Rule network-unauthenticated

Response

  1. Verify the source-stated fix and test the affected endpoint after deployment.Telemetry: Application change records · The exact application fix must be confirmed locally. · Rule sql-injection
