Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for ldap-account-manager.

CVE-2024-52792[0]:
| LDAP Account Manager (LAM) is a php webfrontend for managing entries
| (e.g. users, groups, DHCP settings) stored in an LDAP directory. In
| affected versions LAM does not properly sanitize configuration
| values, that are set via `mainmanage.php` and `confmain.php`. This
| allows setting arbitrary config values and thus effectively
| bypassing `mitigation` of CVE-2024-23333/GHSA-fm9w-7m7v-wxqv.
| Configuration values for the main config or server profiles are set
| via `mainmanage.php` and `confmain.php`. The values are written to
| `config.cfg` or `serverprofile.conf` in the format of `settingsName:
| settingsValue` line-by-line. An attacker can smuggle arbitrary
| config values in a config file, by inserting a newline into certain
| config fields, followed by the value. This vulnerability has been
| addressed in version 9.0. All users are advised to upgrade. There
| are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
