Snyk's use of malicious npm packages for research raises ethical concerns, highlighting risks in public deployment, data exfiltration, and unauthorized testing.
github.com/hornbill/ldap
Basic LDAP v3 functionality for the GO programming language.
Most features are used in the test files. ldaplocal_test.go tests most new features.
Required Librarys: github.com/mavricknz/asn1-ber
Working: Connecting to LDAP server Binding to LDAP server Searching for entries Compiling string filters to LDAP filters Paging Search Results Mulitple internal goroutines to handle network traffic Makes library goroutine safe Can perform multiple search requests at the same time and return the results to the proper goroutine. All requests are blocking requests, so the goroutine does not need special handling Request Controls - MatchedValuesRequest, PermissiveModifyRequest, ManageDsaITRequest, SubtreeDeleteRequest, Paging, ServerSideSort
Tests Implemented: Filter Compile / Decompile Local OpenDJ Tests for most Operations
Experimental: LDIF Reader - LDIF entries only (~16k entries/sec) Some limited documentation
TODO: LDIF Reader - mods/adds/deletes/... Test to not depend on initial Directory setup Do something with binary attributes. FilterExtensibleMatch Decode Modify DN Requests / Responses Implement Tests / Benchmarks Timeouts (connect Go 1.1?), Timeout Operations.
