+ <background>
+ <p>
+ DBMail is a mail storage and retrieval daemon that uses SQL databases
+ as its data store. IMAP and POP3 can be used to retrieve mails from the
+ database.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ A vulnerability in DBMail's authldap module when used in conjunction
+ with an Active Directory server has been reported by vugluskr. When
+ passing a zero length password to the module, it tries to bind
+ anonymously to the LDAP server. If the LDAP server allows anonymous
+ binds, this bind succeeds and results in a successful authentication to
+ DBMail.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="low">
+ <p>
+ By passing an empty password string to the server, an attacker could be
+ able to log in to any account.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All DBMail users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-mail/dbmail-2.2.9"</code>
