Detailed Description |
According to its banner, the installed version of Serv-U is a version prior to 15.3. It is, therefore, affected by an improper input validation vulnerability. The Serv-U web login screen to LDAP authentication was allowing characters that were not sufficiently sanitized.
SolarWinds has updated the input mechanism to perform additional validation and sanitization.
Please Note: No downstream effect has been detected as the LDAP servers ignored improper characters.
* Note: This check solely relied on the version number of the remote FTP server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
