(Doc ID 790738.1)
Last updated on OCTOBER 07, 2022
Applies to:
Oracle Containers for J2EE - Version 10.1.3.3.0 to 10.1.3.4.0 [Release AS10gR3] Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
When a J2EE application is attempting to authenticate users from an LDAP Server and the LDAP server contains entries with the forward slash character, "/",
this causes LDAP search to return wrong DN values.
For example, when "cn=<USER1/USER>,cn=<GROUP_NAME>,cn=groups,dc=<COMPANY>,dc=com"
and the oracle.security.jazn.realm.LDAPPrincipal is instantiated using this DN,
then the LDAPPrincipal is unable to normalize the DN.
The normalized DN value is null and authentication fails with invalid username or password.
the following error occurs at logs:
