-
- SIMS 3.x (Sun Internet Mail Server) and SDS 1.x & 3.1 (Sun LDAP
- Directory services) vulnerability.
-
- /var/opt/SUNWconn/ldap/log/slapd.log is used to log ldap
- connects/operations.
-
- I won't waste a lot of typing on detailing the problem, perhaps this
- simple example will suffice:
-
- % cd /var/opt/SUNWconn/ldap/log/
- % ls -l slapd.log
-
- -rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 33519 Dec 16 16:00 slapd.log
-
- % grep password slapd.log
-
- Wed Dec 16 12:55 : conn=41 op=2 SRCH base="CN=Joe T. User
- (joet),OU=People,O=email,C=US" scope=2 filter="(userpassword=bettysue)"
-
- % grep passwd | grep admin
-
- Wed Dec 16 12:55 : conn=41 op=2 SRCH base="CN=admin
- (admin),OU=People,O=email,C=US" scope=2 filter="(userpassword=secret)"

- <sigh> yes folks, world readable (and writable for that matter) and
- clear text passwords and uids of all those folks logging into the IMAP
- server to check mail, etc. and on a machine that users can log into.
-
- Almost takes all the fun out of it.
