Debian has issued advisory DSA-4166-1 to fix vulnerabilities regarding XSS and CSRF present in the website-management tool.
Michal Kedzior found two vulnerabilities in LDAP Account Manager, a web front-end for LDAP directories

Summary

CVE-2018-8763

The found Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability might
allow an attacker to execute JavaScript code in the browser of the
victim or to redirect her to a malicious website if the victim clicks
on a specially crafted link.

CVE-2018-8764

The application leaks the CSRF token in the URL, which can be use by
an attacker to perform a Cross-Site Request Forgery attack, in which
a victim logged in LDAP Account Manager might performed unwanted
actions in the front-end by clicking on a link crafted by the
attacker.

For the oldstable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed
in version 4.7.1-1+deb8u1.

For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in
version 5.5-1+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your ldap-account-manager packages.
