Insecure service configuration - LDAP
Description
Internal service information should not be stored in the source code, especially AD configurations, as it is obtained from the admon-chanel configuration file.
Impact
Use these insecure service configurations to gain access to the AD and collect all kinds of information that will be useful in later attacks, such as internal network architecture recognition or employee information.
Recommendation
Service configurations and credentials must be in protected environments.
Threat
Internal attacker with access to service configurations.
Expected Remediation Time
⌚ 60 minutes.

Compliant code
Sensitive resources do not have their credentials stored in the source code
using System;
class cipher{
public void Encrypt() {
DirectoryEntry thrdDirectoryEntry = new DirectoryEntry(adPath, "u", "p", AuthenticationTypes.Secure);
}
}
Non compliant code
There is sensitive information store as plain text
using System;
class cipher{
public void Encrypt() {
DirectoryEntry myDirectoryEntry = new DirectoryEntry(adPath);
myDirectoryEntry.AuthenticationType = AuthenticationTypes.None;
DirectoryEntry sndDirectoryEntry = new DirectoryEntry(adPath, "u", "p", AuthenticationTypes.None);
}
}
