NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dokuwiki package and not the dokuwiki package as distributed by Ubuntu.

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