Richard N. Hillegas commented on DERBY-7147:
--------------------------------------------
If you can figure out how to run a directory server and run
LDAPAuthenticationTest, then I can code a fix for this bug. Unfortunately, the
Apache Directory Server doesn't have an installer for my operating system
(MacOS): https://directory.apache.org/apacheds/downloads.html
> LDAP injection vulnerability in LDAPAuthenticationImpl

> Assignee: Richard N. Hillegas
> Priority: Major
