Technical details
The vulnerability is an improper authentication issue (CWE-287) in the AuthPoint Gateway's LDAP Sync first-factor authentication that permits bypassing password verification when non-default operating conditions are present. The flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to bypass single-factor password checks; however, downstream multi-factor authentication requirements mitigate complete account compromise. A fix is available in AuthPoint Authentication Gateway version 7.5.1 and later.
