Apache Directory Studio Command Injection

CVE-2015-5349GHSA-p9qj-4rjp-j3w9

What to do

Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (org.apache.directory.studio:org.apache.directory.studio.ldapbrowser.core 2.0.0.v20151221-M10), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.

This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

The CSV export in Apache LDAP Studio and Apache Directory Studio before 2.0.0-M10 does not properly escape field values, which might allow attackers to execute arbitrary commands by leveraging a crafted LDAP entry that is interpreted as a formula when imported into a spreadsheet.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2015-5349

Advisory: Apache Directory Studio Command Injection
IDs: CVE-2015-5349, GHSA-p9qj-4rjp-j3w9
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2015-5349 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 16:20 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: High (CVSS 7.8)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: org.apache.directory.studio:org.apache.directory.studio.ldapbrowser.core 2.0.0.v20151221-M10. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Maven org.apache.directory.studio:org.apache.directory.studio.ldapbrowser.core: affected < 2.0.0.v20151221-M10; fixed in 2.0.0.v20151221-M10

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Maven org.apache.directory.studio:org.apache.directory.studio.ldapbrowser.core: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on org.apache.directory.studio:org.apache.directory.studio.ldapbrowser.core.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
