I discovered recently that the plugins are on an ancient version of the Apache LDAP library that means they don't actually seem to validate the server certs fully by default (e.g on expiry), so may not validate the hostname either. But that's probably a bug, not a feature? Your call if you want to give it a go and rely on it for now.
If the default is made more secure in future I'd like to think there's be an opt-out. But yeah - those LDAP plugins need some love. -Chad On Sat, 18 May 2024, 02:29 Jason Smyth, <jsm...@taqauto.com> wrote: > Hi Sriram, > > > > Thank you for the feedback. > > > > Do you know how the plugin handles SSL negotiation?
