An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2010-2940 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-2940/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-2940/index.md)","id":"CVE-2010-2940","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-2940/index.md","name":"CVE-2010-2940","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2010-2940","GHSA-x9m9-3w3m-hrf4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"SSSD authentication daemon","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass authentication in SSSD by using an empty password when LDAP anonymous bind is enabled.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"sssd","vendor":"fedoraproject"}],"cvss":{"score":5.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"The auth_send function in providers/ldap/ldap_auth.c in System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) 1.3.0, when LDAP authentication and anonymous bind are enabled, allows remote attackers to bypass the authentication requirements of pam_authenticate via an empty password.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2940","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2010"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2941"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2939"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2010-08-30","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Other in SSSD","id":"CVE-2022-4254","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-01"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in sssd","id":"CVE-2012-3462","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-12-26"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Sssd: sssd: authorization bypass via cross-domain username collision in hbac evaluation","id":"CVE-2026-104048","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-06"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5292","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-10-29"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Sssd: use-after-free crash in sssd' 'sssd_pam' process","id":"CVE-2026-12610","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-30"},{"cvss_score":6.2,"headline":"Sssd: sssd: denial of service via incomplete identity provider authentication requests","id":"CVE-2026-104046","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-06"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Sssd: sssd: denial of service via memory exhaustion in autofs responder","id":"CVE-2026-104031","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-06"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can bypass authentication in SSSD by using an empty password when LDAP anonymous bind is enabled.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-2940/"}
