Description

 Multiple LDAP Server contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure.  The issue is triggered when the LDAP NULL bind entry is enabled by default, which may allow a remote attacker to anonymously view files on the LDAP directory resulting in a loss of confidentiality.
