Description Kristian Fiskerstrand (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-09-12 14:08:54 UTC
Greetings

Matthew Daley reported a Null byte poisoning issue with LDAP 
authentication affecting MantisBT <= 1.2.17.

A malicious user can exploit this vulnerability to login as any 
registered user and without knowing their password, to systems relying 
on LDAP for user authentication (e.g. Active Directory or OpenLDAP with 
"allow bind_anon_cred"). 

Patches are available in [1]; full details on the original issue report 
can be found at [2]. Can you please assign a CVE ID to this issue ? 

Thank you

CVE-2014-6387 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-6387):
  gpc_api.php in MantisBT 1.2.17 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass
  authenticated via a password starting will a null byte, which triggers an
  unauthenticated bind.
