CVE-2026-13696
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedImproper neutralization of special elements used in an LDAP query ('LDAP injection') vulnerability in HAVELSAN Inc. Liman MYS allows LDAP Injection. This issue affects Liman MYS: before release.Master.1107.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceLDAP injection vulnerability in HAVELSAN Liman MYS allows attackers to manipulate LDAP queries through unsanitized user input. The vulnerability exists in versions before release.Master.1107, where special characters in user-supplied data are not properly escaped before being incorporated into LDAP directory searches.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify Liman MYS installation and versionLocate the Liman MYS installation directory and check for version information files. Common locations include /opt/liman or /var/www/liman. Look for a version file, changelog, or the main application file that displays the version.Affected if The installed version is release.Master.1106 or earlier, or the version cannot be determined but is known to be from before release.Master.1107
-
Verify LDAP authentication is configuredCheck the Liman MYS configuration files for LDAP/Active Directory integration settings. Look for LDAP connection parameters, user authentication sources, or directory service configurations in config files.Affected if LDAP authentication or directory integration is enabled and the Liman MYS version is before release.Master.1107
-
Identify user input fields that interact with LDAP queriesReview web application source code or configuration files for parameters that accept user input and are used in LDAP search queries. Look for query construction patterns involving user-supplied data.Affected if User-supplied parameters are directly used in LDAP search filters without apparent sanitization, and the version is before release.Master.1107
-
Inspect LDAP query handling for special charactersExamine the LDAP query builder or search function implementations in the Liman MYS code. Check if special characters (* ( ) \ NUL) are escaped or validated before being included in LDAP filters.Affected if LDAP queries incorporate user input without proper escaping of special characters, and the version is before release.Master.1107
A user is affected if HAVELSAN Liman MYS is installed with LDAP integration enabled and the version is release.Master.1106 or earlier.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedUpgrade to Liman MYS release.Master.1107 or later. If immediate patching is not possible, implement input validation and proper LDAP escaping (using backslash encoding for special characters like * ( ) \ NUL) on all user-supplied parameters before constructing LDAP queries.
release.Master.1107
- 1. Backup the current Liman MYS installation and database.
- 2. Review the release notes for Master.1107 to understand any prerequisites or migration requirements.
- 3. Download Liman MYS release Master.1107 from the official HAVELSAN/Liman repository or vendor distribution channel.
- 4. Stop the Liman MYS service before applying the update.
- 5. Apply the update/upgrade following the vendor's standard upgrade procedure for Liman MYS.
- 6. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version number.
- 7. Test LDAP authentication functionality to confirm the LDAP injection vulnerability is remediated.
- 8. Restart the Liman MYS service.
