The SELFDN ACI bind-rule evaluator incorrectly matches an anonymous LDAP client's empty bind DN against an empty stored attribute value, allowing an unauthenticated client to satisfy access control checks intended to require a matching authenticated identity. This can allow an anonymous LDAP client to perform an operation, such as adding or modifying a directory entry, that a SELFDN-based ACI intended to restrict to a specific authenticated user. ## Remediation Refer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges. ## Vendor advisories - **RHSA-2026:64771** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7 ELS), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional (v. 7 ELS) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64771) - **RHSA-2026:64793** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Directory Server 11.9 for RHEL 8 · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64793) - **RHSA-2026:64804** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream EUS (v. 10.0), Red Hat Enterprise Linux CodeReady Linux Builder EUS (v. 10.0) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64804) - **RHSA-2026:64785** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 10), Red Hat Enterprise Linux CodeReady Linux Builder (v. 10) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64785) - **RHSA-2026:64791** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 8) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64791) - **RHSA-2026:64789** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream AUS (v.8.4), Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream EUS EXTENSION (v.8.4) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64789) - **RHSA-2026:64790** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream AUS (v.8.6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream EUS EXTENSION (v.8.6) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64790) - **RHSA-2026:64776** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream E4S (v.8.8), Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream TUS (v.8.8) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64776) - **RHSA-2026:64778** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream E4S (v.9.2) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64778) - **RHSA-2026:64781** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream E4S (v.9.4) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64781) - **RHSA-2026:64783** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream EUS (v.9.6), Red Hat CodeReady Linux Builder EUS (v.9.6) · released 2026-09-08 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:64783) - **Red Hat VEX** · Important · affected: Red Hat Directory Server 11, Red Hat Directory Server 12, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 · no fix planned: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, Red Hat Directory Server 11, Red Hat Directory Server 12, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 · updated 2026-09-08 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-76560.json)
