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 · unedited
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an LDAP Query ('LDAP Injection') vulnerability in Apache OFBiz. This issue affects Apache OFBiz: before 24.09.06. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 24.09.06, which fixes the issue.

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 confidence

Apache OFBiz versions before 24.09.06 contain an LDAP Injection vulnerability where unsanitized user input is used in LDAP queries. This allows attackers to manipulate LDAP statements to bypass authentication, enumerate directory contents, or extract sensitive information.

MitigationUpgrade Apache OFBiz to version 24.09.06 or later to apply the fix for this LDAP injection vulnerability.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed Apache OFBiz version
    Locate the OFBiz version file or check the build configuration (typically in version.properties, build.xml, or the application's main about/page). Compare the version number to 24.09.06.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 24.09.06 (e.g., 24.09.05, 18.12.x, earlier releases).
  2. Determine if LDAP integration is configured
    Inspect the OFBiz configuration files for LDAP settings. Look for ldap* properties in config files such as general.properties, security.xml, or within the LDAP connector configuration in the OFBiz administration interface.
    Affected if LDAP is enabled and OFBiz is configured to authenticate against or query an LDAP directory.
  3. Verify LDAP authentication or query components are in use
    Review the OFBiz web controller definitions (controller.xml files) and service definitions (service*.xml files) for LDAP-related actions, services, or authentication handlers that process user-provided input.
    Affected if The system uses LDAP-based authentication, user lookup, or group/role synchronization that processes user input.
  4. Inspect LDAP query construction for unsanitized input
    Examine the LDAP-specific Java code or Groovy scripts within OFBiz that build LDAP search filters or bind operations. Look for instances where request parameters, login credentials, or search terms are concatenated directly into LDAP filter strings without proper escaping or parameterization.
    Affected if User-supplied parameters are directly interpolated into LDAP filter strings without neutralization of special LDAP meta-characters.

You are affected if your installed Apache OFBiz version is below 24.09.06 AND the system has LDAP authentication, user synchronization, or LDAP query functionality enabled and operational.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 24.09.06 or later
Fixed in 24.09.06
Interim mitigation

Upgrade Apache OFBiz to version 24.09.06 or later to apply the fix for this LDAP injection vulnerability.

Recommended fix High confidence

24.09.06

  1. Backup your current Apache OFBiz installation and database before upgrading
  2. Download Apache OFBiz version 24.09.06 from the official Apache OFBiz distribution (https://ofbiz.apache.org/download.html)
  3. Review the official upgrade notes and migration guide for 24.09.06
  4. Stop the currently running OFBiz services
  5. Replace the old OFBiz installation files with the new version 24.09.06 files
  6. Run any database migration scripts provided in the upgrade
  7. Start the OFBiz services and verify the application is functioning correctly
  8. Test that the LDAP injection vulnerability is no longer present
