CVE-2021-35943

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Couchbase Server versions 6.5.x through 6.6.2

Description: The issue concerns Incorrect Access Control in Couchbase Server, where externally managed users are not prevented from using an empty password, contrary to RFC4513 guidelines.

Recommendations: For Couchbase Server versions 6.5.x through 6.6.2, consider restricting access to externally managed users until a proper fix is applied to enforce password requirements according to RFC4513. As a temporary workaround, ensure that all users have a non-empty password to minimize the risk of exploitation.
