             Summary: Synchronous simple bind sends unauthenticated bind on 
empty password
                 Key: DIRAPI-443
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-443
             Project: Directory Client API
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.1.8
            Reporter: Emmanuel Lécharny
             Fix For: 2.1.9


A web app authenticates users via _connection.bind(userDn, 
request.getParameter("password"))_; 

An attacker submits a valid username with an empty password; 

The library sends *DN* + zero-length credentials, the server replies *SUCCESS* 
(anonymous), bind() returns normally, and the attacker is logged in as that 
user.
