CVE assigned:

Name: CVE-2007-6714

DBMail before 2.2.9, when using authldap with an LDAP server that
supports anonymous login such as Active Directory, allows remote
attackers to bypass authentication via an empty password, which causes
the LDAP bind to indicate success based on anonymous authentication.

amd64/x86 stable, last arches.

------- Comment #5 From Robert Buchholz 2008-04-17 23:56:50 0000 -------
GLSA vote... I tend to use yes here since this might allow anyone to retrieve
anyone else's mail via pop3/imap.

------- Comment #6 From Matthias Geerdsen 2008-04-18 08:54:12 0000 -------
Although this could even be seen as C4, since it requires an Active Directory
to be checked against, I vote yes too.

request filed
