About this tag
The cldap tag covers discussions about Connectionless Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (CLDAP) vulnerabilities and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks affecting Windows domain controllers. Topics include CVE-2025-53809 and CVE-2025-53716, which involve improper input validation and null-pointer dereference in LSASS, allowing authorized attackers to crash authentication services. The Win-DDoS technique and LDAPNightmare (CVE-2024-49113) are also covered, showing how exposed domain controllers can be abused as DDoS amplifiers via CLDAP and related protocols. Content focuses on patching, hardening identity infrastructure, and monitoring for protocol-level abuse to protect enterprise networks.
