[jira] [Commented] (DIRSERVER-1876) Plaintext password change exop causes NullPointerException

["Emmanuel Lecharny (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1876?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13720225#comment-13720225 ] 

Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSERVER-1876:
----------------------------------------------

I confirm there is a potential NPE when removing a userPassword value.

I don't think we are handling correctly the modifications, especially the remove modification, and even the add (we always get rid of the previous values, when the userPassword is potentially a multi-valued attribute).

This needs to be reviewed, fixed, and tests must be added.

Thanks for the report !
