CVE-2026-41919Network attack vector

Authentication bypass via unescaped LDAP username

Published May 19, 2026 · Updated May 19, 2026

LDAP injection in Apache OFBiz before 24.09.06 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication through crafted usernames. LdapAuthenticationServices inserts the supplied username into ldap.dn.template without RDN escaping, allowing LDAP metacharacters to alter the bind DN. The issue is reachable only when LDAP authentication and a DN template are configured; successful injection binds as an unintended directory identity.
