NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream lemonldap-ng package and not the lemonldap-ng package as distributed by Debian.

An issue was discovered in LemonLDAP::NG before 2.0.12. Session cache corruption can lead to authorization bypass or spoofing. By running a loop that makes many authentication attempts, an attacker might alternately be authenticated as one of two different users.
