tag_insight = "vCenter Server AD anonymous LDAP binding credential by-pass

vCenter Server when deployed in an environment that uses Active Directory (AD)
with anonymous LDAP binding enabled doesn't properly handle login credentials.
In this environment, authenticating to vCenter Server with a valid user name
and a blank password may be successful even if a non-blank password is required
for the account.

The issue is present on vCenter Server 5.1, 5.1a and 5.1b if AD anonymous LDAP
binding is enabled. The issue is addressed in vCenter Server 5.1 Update 1 by
removing the possibility to authenticate using blank passwords. This change in
the authentication mechanism is present regardless if anonymous  binding is
enabled or not.

Workaround

The workaround is to discontinue the use of AD anonymous LDAP binding if it is
enabled in your environment. AD anonymous LDAP binding is not enabled by
default. The TechNet article listed in the references section explains how to
check for anonymous binding (look for 'anonymous binding' in the article:
anonymous binding is enabled if the seventh bit of the dsHeuristics attribute
is set to 2)

Oracle (Sun) JRE is updated to version 1.6.0_37, which addresses multiple
security issues that existed in earlier releases of Oracle (Sun) JRE.";
