  "details": "## Summary\n\nA vulnerability was discovered in Zitadel\u0027s LDAP identity provider implementation, which fails to properly escape user-provided usernames before incorporating them into LDAP search filters. This allows unauthenticated attackers to perform LDAP Filter Injection during the login process.\n\n## Impact\n\nWhile this vulnerability does not allow for a full authentication bypass, an attacker can use LDAP metacharacters (such as `*`, `(`, `)`) to perform blind LDAP injection. By observing the different failure (or success) responses, an attacker can systematically enumerate valid usernames and extract sensitive attribute data from the connected LDAP directory.\n\nNote that an authentication bypass is not possible.\n\n## Affected Versions\n\nSystems integrating LDAP as IdPs and running one of the following versions are affected:\n\n- **4.x**: `4.0.0` through `4.14.0` (including RC versions)\n- **3.x**: `3.1.0` through `3.4.9`\n- **2.x**: `2.71.11` through `2.71.19`\n\n## Patches\n\nThe vulnerability has been addressed in the latest releases. The patch resolves the issue by requiring the correct permission in case the verification flag is provided and only allows self-management of the email address, resp. phone number itself.\n\n- **4.x**: Upgrade to \u003e=[4.15.0](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v4.15.0)\n- **3.x**: Update to \u003e=[3.4.10](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v3.4.10)\n- **2.x**: Update to \u003e=[3.4.10](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v3.4.10)\n\n## Workarounds\n\nThe recommended solution is to upgrade to a patched version. If an immediate upgrade is not possible, developers should ensure their project\u0027s LDAP directory has strict access controls to limit the scope of information disclosure.\n\n## Questions\n\nIf there are any questions or comments about this advisory, please send an email to [security@zitadel.com](mailto:security@zitadel.com)\n\n## Credits\n\nThis vulnerability was identified and reported by **ProScan AppSec** ([https://proscan.one/](https://proscan.one)).",
