The combination of the above server condition and the patch below is an open
relay. If the password is a null string ("", not NULL), then the LDAP bind is
treated as an explicit anonymous bind and succeeds. The user does not have to
be defined in the LDAP database.

This can be fixed by changing either the server condition or the patch.
Example:

server_condition = ${if eq {$2}{}{no}{${lookup ldapauth
{user="uid=${quote_ldap:$1},ou=people,o=example.org" pass="$2"
ldap://ldap.example.org/}{$value} fail}}}

The patch may be fixed by changing the above line to:

+ if (lcp->bound && lcp->user != NULL && lcp->password != NULL &&
*(lcp->password) != '\0')
