Boleslaw Dawidowicz resolved JBPORTAL-1785.
-------------------------------------------
Resolution: Done
I think this is LDAP specific and some servers treat blank passwords as anonymous login. I
added 'allowEmptyPasswords' (default is now false) option to refuse authentication
with such password:
<option-group>
<group-name>common</group-name>
...
<option>
<name>allowEmptyPasswords</name>
<value>true</value>
</option>
...
</option-group>
This will go in 2.6.3. Identity jars will be updated in repo later today
Any LDAP user can login in the Portal with blank password

Key: JBPORTAL-1785
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-1785
Project: JBoss Portal
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: Portal Identity
Affects Versions: 2.6.2 Final
Environment: Any (Windows, Linux, MAC OSX)
Reporter: Marco Sarti
Assigned To: Boleslaw Dawidowicz
Fix For: 2.6.3 Final
I refer to this document:
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ConfigurePortalForMicrosoftActiv...
With portal configured to authenticate users through LDAP/Active Directory, any user can
login simply leaving the password field empty.
The identity management correctly rejects wrong passwords, but accepts blank password and
it completes the authentication process as the password was right.
