Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2024-54852 is an LDAP injection vulnerability (CWE-90) in Teedy versions 1.9 through 1.12 when LDAP connection is activated. The flaw arises from improper sanitization of user input in the username field of the login form, enabling injection of malicious LDAP queries. It carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), reflecting critical severity due to its network accessibility and lack of prerequisites.

An unauthenticated attacker can exploit the vulnerability remotely by submitting crafted input to the login form's username field. Successful exploitation allows various malicious LDAP actions, including creating arbitrary accounts and performing password spraying.

Advisories and further details, including potential mitigation guidance, are available in the referenced GitHub repository at https://github.com/Tanguy-Boisset/CVE/blob/master/CVE-2024-54852/README.md.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation can discover LDAP injection flaws through static analysis or crafted test cases.

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from reaching an LDAP query builder without neutralization of special characters.

Secure engineering principles require safe query construction and escaping that structurally prevents LDAP injection.

finds

Security testing in development catches LDAP injection via dynamic analysis or fuzzing, but does not prevent it at the source.

prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and query construction practices that directly prevent LDAP injection.

prevents

Application security requirements include explicit rules for safe construction of directory queries, mitigating LDAP injection.

prevents

Secure coding standards require proper neutralization of LDAP special characters, directly eliminating this weakness.

mitigates

Secure architecture principles encourage safe query interfaces but do not prescribe the specific coding controls needed for LDAP injection.

none

Information access restriction limits who can query LDAP but does not address how queries are built.
