Richard N. Hillegas commented on DERBY-7147:
--------------------------------------------
There are other dead links in the LDAP documentation. Adapting the
documentation to use Apache DS is a possibility. Once that is done and we have
amended LDAPAuthenticationTest as necessary, we would want to make
LDAPAuthenticationTest one of our release hurdles. We have been certifying
releases for many years without testing the LDAP component.
> LDAP injection vulnerability in LDAPAuthenticationImpl
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-7147
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-7147
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JDBC
> Affects Versions: 10.16.1.1
> Reporter: Richard N. Hillegas
> Assignee: Richard N. Hillegas
> Priority: Major
>
> An LDAP injection vulnerability has been identified in
> LDAPAuthenticationSchemeImpl.getDNFromUID(). An exploit has not been
> provided, but there is a possibility that an intruder could bypass
> authentication checks in Derby-powered applications which rely on external
> LDAP servers.
