CVE-2025-27631

6.5 MEDIUM

📋 TL;DR

CVE-2025-27631 is an LDAP injection vulnerability in the TRMTracker web application that allows attackers to inject malicious LDAP queries. This could enable unauthorized data access, modification, or potentially remote command execution. Organizations using vulnerable versions of TRMTracker are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • TRMTracker
Versions: Specific versions not detailed in reference; consult vendor advisory
Operating Systems: All platforms running TRMTracker
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Vulnerability exists in web application components that interact with LDAP services

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

Recommended Actions:
  1. Review the CVE details at NVD
  2. Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
  3. Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
  4. Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Full compromise of the LDAP directory service, allowing attackers to read sensitive data, modify user permissions, execute arbitrary commands, or potentially gain domain administrator privileges.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to directory information, credential harvesting, privilege escalation, or data manipulation within the affected application.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation and LDAP query sanitization in place, potentially preventing successful exploitation.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

LDAP injection typically requires some level of access to input fields; exploitation complexity is generally low once the vulnerable endpoint is identified

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Consult vendor advisory for specific patched versions

Vendor Advisory: https://publisher.hitachienergy.com/preview?DocumentID=8DBD000210&LanguageCode=en&DocumentPartId=&Action=Launch

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Review the vendor advisory for specific patch details
2. Download and apply the official patch from Hitachi Energy
3. Restart the TRMTracker application and any dependent services
4. Verify the patch was successfully applied

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Implement Input Validation

all

Add server-side input validation to sanitize user inputs before processing LDAP queries

Use Parameterized LDAP Queries

all

Modify application code to use parameterized LDAP queries instead of string concatenation

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement network segmentation to isolate TRMTracker from critical LDAP services
  • Deploy a web application firewall (WAF) with LDAP injection rules

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Review application logs for unusual LDAP query patterns or test input fields with LDAP injection payloads in a controlled environment

Check Version:

Check TRMTracker version through application interface or configuration files

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify patch version against vendor advisory and test previously vulnerable endpoints with LDAP injection payloads

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual LDAP query patterns in application logs
  • Failed authentication attempts with special characters
  • Unexpected LDAP search results

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual LDAP traffic from web application servers
  • Multiple failed LDAP bind attempts

SIEM Query:

source="TRMTracker" AND (message="*LDAP*" OR message="*injection*")
