How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:12 dokuwiki to version 0.0.20140929.a-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dokuwiki package and not the dokuwiki package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

DokuWiki before 2014-05-05b, when using Active Directory for LDAP authentication, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a password starting with a null (\0) character and a valid user name, which triggers an unauthenticated bind.
