Elytron ldap-realm allows access with empty password
----------------------------------------------------
Key: ELY-850
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-850
Project: WildFly Elytron
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Realms
Affects Versions: 1.1.0.Beta17
Reporter: Ondrej Lukas
Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
Priority: Blocker
An empty password is treated as an anonymous login by some LDAP servers (e.g. by
Microsoft Active Directory). In case when Elytron ldap-realm is configured for that type
of LDAP server then access with empty password to secured web resource guarded by that
ldap-realm is always granted.
There should be some attribute for configuring whether empty password should be accepted
by ldap-realm.
Similar issue occurs in previous versions of application server, see:
