__TOC__{{TOC hidden}}
 
 
 
This article is focused on providing clear, simple, actionable guidance for preventing LDAP Injection flaws in your applications. [[LDAP Injection]] attacks are somewhat common, and this is due to two factors:
 
 
 
# the lack of safer, parameterized LDAP query interfaces, and
 
# the widespread use of LDAP to authenticate users to systems.
 
 
 
LDAP Injection is an attack used to exploit web based applications that construct LDAP statements based on user input. When an application fails to properly sanitize user input, it’s possible to modify LDAP statements using a local proxy. This could result in the execution of arbitrary commands such as granting permissions to unauthorized queries, and content modification inside the LDAP tree. The same advanced exploitation techniques available in SQL Injection can be similarly applied in LDAP Injection.

Beyond adopting one of the three primary defenses, we also recommend adopting all of these additional defenses in order to provide defense in depth. These additional defenses are:
 
 
 
* '''Least Privilege'''
 
* '''White List Input Validation'''
 
 
 
== Least Privilege ==
 
 
 
To minimize the potential damage of a successful LDAP injection attack, you should minimize the privileges assigned to the LDAP binding account in your environment.
 
 
 
TBA
 
 
 
== White List Input Validation ==
 
 
 
Input validation can be used to detect unauthorized input before it is passed to the SQL query. For more information please see the [[Input Validation Cheat Sheet]].
