Answer in brief
CVE-2026-14969 records a Medium severity (CVSS 4.4) vulnerability in 389-ds-base: 389-ds-base: static initialization vector in aes-cbc/3des-cbc attribute encryption. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Red Hat/389-ds:1.4/389-ds-base (generic), Red Hat/389-ds-base (generic), Red Hat/redhat-ds:11/389-ds-base (generic), Red Hat/redhat-ds:12/389-ds-base (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
CVSS is 4.4. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

A flaw was found in 389-ds-base where the LDBM backend attribute encryption uses a hardcoded static initialization vector for AES-CBC and 3DES-CBC operations, allowing an attacker with privileged filesystem access to detect plaintext equality across encrypted entries by comparing ciphertext blocks.
