CVE-2026-44305 Details
Description
Lemur manages TLS certificate creation. Prior to 1.9.0, when LDAP TLS is enabled (LDAP_USE_TLS = True), Lemur's LDAP authentication module unconditionally disables TLS certificate verification at the global ldap module level. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker positioned between Lemur and the LDAP server to intercept all authentication credentials. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.9.0.
A vulnerability exists in Lemur's LDAP authentication module prior to version 1.9.0, when LDAP TLS is enabled. The module globally disables TLS certificate verification, allowing a man-in-the-middle attacker to intercept authentication credentials. This issue is particularly critical as it compromises the integrity of the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) managed by Lemur, a tool designed for TLS certificate management.
Users are advised to update to Lemur version 1.9.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been addressed. For those needing backward compatibility, consider making the TLS verification behavior configurable with a secure default.
