[php-maint] Bug#560161: php5-ldap: LDAPS and LDAP+TLS return error on valid wildcard certificate check

[Clement Hermann (nodens)]

Package: php5-ldap
Severity: normal

Hi,

php5-ldap return error on bind when server is using a wildcard
SSL certificate, even when the certificate is valid. ldapsearch works
OK on the same certificate.

Workaround : add TLS_REQCERT never in ldap.conf (but then you cannot
verify that you are connecting to the right server), or use a simple
(non-wildcard) certificate.

This is probably an upstream bug (see
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=17738), but the relevant bug is
currently in "no feedback" state so maybe it could be re-opened as a new bug.
(I don't have any php version supported upstream readily available that
can connect to a ldaps server with a wildcard cert, so I did not report
it upstream).

Cheers,
