After some investigation into Open LDAP I discovered that a post that
states:

"A bind with a DN but with an empty password is equivalent to an
anonymous
bind, while a bind with a DN and with a wrong password is not;"

So could this cause a blank password to allow access to the database
as the LDAP server
is successfully connecting anonymously?
