Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in phpLDAPadmin 0.9.8 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) dn parameter in (a) compare_form.php, (b) copy_form.php, (c) rename_form.php, (d) template_engine.php, and (e) delete_form.php; (2) scope parameter in (f) search.php; and (3) Container DN, (4) Machine Name, and (5) UID Number fields in (g) template_engine.php.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old phpLDAPadmin cross-site scripting issue. In versions 0.9.8 and earlier, attackers could inject script or HTML through several form parameters and template fields. Business risk depends on whether the admin interface is still deployed and reachable by users or the internet. Exposure is likely limited to legacy environments still running phpLDAPadmin 0.9.8 or earlier, especially if the web interface is reachable outside trusted administrative networks. Treat as a legacy exposure cleanup item. It is not KEV-listed, but any internet-reachable LDAP administration interface with XSS risk deserves prompt inventory and remediation. Mitigation focus: Inventory phpLDAPadmin deployments and identify any version 0.9.8 or earlier.; Check Debian DSA-1057 and phpLDAPadmin guidance for supported fixed packages.; Upgrade or remove unsupported legacy phpLDAPadmin installations..
