What is CVE-2023-29056?

A valid LDAP user may inadvertently be granted read-only permissions when logging into Lenovo's XCC. This issue arises if the XCC is configured to utilize an LDAP server for authentication and authorization, and crucially, if the login permission attribute is not defined. Should these conditions align, users are posed with significant access limitations, which could hinder their operational capabilities in managing the XCC.
