Hi
The LDAP garbage dump that remains on web server results in information
disclosure. Security
of LDAP may be compromised, if for instance a search engine crawls
through untamed directories
on the web server and finds information through the ldap.xml file. This
type of harvesting attack is
also termed ⌠static information leveraging attack.■ This article
provides methods for dealing with
this type of attack and clarifying how to secure LDAP
