Noriko Hosoi 2017-01-04 00:53:44 UTC Doc Text Problem: If the CLEAR password storage scheme plugin is disabled, and a userpassword is set, the server crashes. This is because we expect this plugin to be enabled when working with the unhashed password.

Fix: Always check if the password scheme is NULL before dereferencing it. If it is NULL treat it as a clear text password.

Result: The server does not crash if the CLEAR password storage scheme plugin is disabled.

Directory Server no longer fails when disabling the *CLEAR* password storage scheme plug-in

Previously, Directory Server required that the *CLEAR* password storage plug-in was enabled when setting "userPassword" attributes. As a consequence, Directory Server terminated unexpectedly when attempting to set "userPassword" attributes, if *CLEAR* was disabled. This update applies a patch and as a result, Directory Server no longer fails in the described situation.
