> *Cause*
> The cause for this {{NPE}} is related to missing data from the attribute
> search request made to a Centrify LDAP proxy after a bind has occurred.
> Since the query filter at this point is "{(objectClass=*}}", the Centrify
> LDAP proxy does not have enough data to determine what information to return
> to the caller. However, the filter was something like
> "{(objectClass=posixAccount}}", it will be able to build a set of attributes
> to return to the caller since it would determine that the call wants data for
> a specific _profile_.
> This can be seen by the following {{tcpdump}} entry:
> {code}
> LDAPMessage searchRequest(2) "uid=user1,ou=people,ou=dev,dc=apache,dc=org"
> baseObject
> messageID: 2
> protocolOp: searchRequest (3)
> searchRequest
> baseObject: uid=user1,ou=people,ou=dev,dc=apache,dc=org
> scope: baseObject (0)
> derefAliases: derefAlways (3)
> sizeLimit: 0
> timeLimit: 0
> typesOnly: False
> Filter: (objectClass=*)
> attributes: 0 items
> [Response In: 2]
> controls: 1 item
> {code}
> Note the filter line above: *{{Filter: (objectClass=*)}}*
> From the Centrify LDAP proxy logs, the following lines can be seen showing
> that no mapping is avaialbe:
> {noformat}
> Nov 8 12:13:45 host1 slapd: cdc search start with filterstr: (objectClass=*)
> Nov 8 12:13:45 host1 slapd: cdc search: objectType = ( is mapped to NONE)
> Nov 8 12:13:45 host1 slapd: cdc search after translation filter =
> (objectClass=*)
> {noformat}
> This search filter is hardcoded in {{com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtx}} as seen in
> http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/root/jdk/openjdk/6-b14/com/sun/jndi/ldap/LdapCtx.java#1308.
> This code is invoked from the Spring LDAP library after attempting to
> authenticate using the Spring
> org.springframework.security.ldap.authentication.BindAuthenticator class.
> *Solution*
> To solve this, Ambari should avoid using
> {{org.springframework.security.ldap.authentication.BindAuthenticator}} to
> authenticate users via LDAP so that more control can be had over when and how
> user attributes are obtained.
