Captive Portal with AD - LDAP authenticates without a password !!,
-
Thank You.
You give me a great hand to direct me in the right way.
I think that the problem is that the Base DN or the Search Base DN (I will try) are set as the rootDSE of the domain for which anonymous binds should be allowed by design.
Thank You very much -

Hi dimoz
I have that exact same issue.
Did it fix something to change the search base OU? -
@brinch, I've folloved the adjustment in the /var/etc/captiveportal_wifi_myportal.html proposed by @vicentezago.
For now, It solved (or bypassed ;-) ) the problem -
@dimoz
Thanks, i did the same trick.
As we dont use blank password on our domain it's fine -
@brinch I think it's too late now...but could you try to make a packet capture on the interface where your AD is, when you are authenticating with an empty password? then could you give me the packet capture by private message ?
I am very surprised by this kind of LDAP bug. I would like to check if it entirely related to your AD configuration or is pfsense part of the issue
(Warning / big Disclaimer : this packet capture will contain username/password of the account used in pfSense for binding to the AD, and the username that you are trying to login with on the captive portal. Depending on how critical this data is, you could change passwords or use temporary usernames)

@free4 Ok i send you the capture file

Well, I have some news,
I could analyze the pcap @brinch sent me. I can confirm that the problem comes from his Active Directory server which successfully bind when user provides an empty password.
I did some research, and apparently it seems to be a microsoft "feature" called unauthenticated bind : https://blog.lithnet.io/2017/01/ad-lds-and-ldap-unauthenticated-binds.html
Unlike anonymous bind, unauthenticated binds are enabled by default in Microsft Active directory.
It is also apparently impossible to disable unauthenticated binds on Microsoft AD : https://serverfault.com/questions/947428/how-to-disable-unauthenticated-binds-in-active-directory2016
I wasn't aware of this controversy. @jimp perhaps we should add an option for forbidding unauthenticated binds?

Hello,
For information, I made a patch for it: https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/4116
@brinch @dimoz @olakara could you please try this patch and tell me if it is working for you ?
The process :
- Install the patch package
- Go to the menu "system-> Patch".
- Create a new patch. In "URL/Commit ID", enter "https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/4116.diff". Leave other fields to default values/empty, and click submit
- Go to your LDAP server settings. A new field (dis)allowing unauthenticated LDAP binds will appear.
Regards,
Augustin -
Thankyou @free4
Give me some days to implement a laboratory clone because I have all the firewalls in production environment. -
@free4
Hi Augustin.
I apologize for the delay but I have been quite busy.
I created a test firewall and tried to apply the patch, but in testing (before installation) it gives me these errors.
