Python error while trying to dump about ldapdomaindump

Make sure you have version 2.5.1 of ldap3 library, newer versions show this error

Hello Dirk-jan,
I just checked and it is.

# apt show python-ldap3

Description: Pure Python LDAP client library
 A pure Python 3 LDAP version 3 strictly conforming to RFC4511 released under
 the LGPL v3 open source license. RFC4511 is the current LDAP specification
 (June 2006) from IETF and obsoletes the previous LDAP RFCs 2251, 2830, 3771
 (December 1997)
 .
 This package contains the Python 2.7 version of the library.

# python -V
Python 2.7.16

I've check with 'pip' and the version was 2.5.2..

# pip install ldap3 dnspython
Requirement already satisfied: ldap3 in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (2.5.2)
Requirement already satisfied: dnspython in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (1.16.0)
Requirement already satisfied: pyasn1>=0.1.8 in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (from ldap3) (0.4.6)

So I've just ran the command pip install --upgrade ldap3==2.5.1 and it solved my problem :)

Maybe it could be an idea to add a requirements.txt file to your project to prevent this problem in the future for other users as well.

I've also seen that the package version I have is the 0.9.1-0kali1 from the kali package. It might be also an idea to add a -V option to check which version of your tool we are running.

Good to hear you fixed it, the package version is fixed in setup.py

ldapdomaindump/setup.py

Line 9 in edb2a6a

install_requires=['dnspython', 'ldap3==2.5.1', 'future'],

, which is similar to requirements.txt for setuptools/pip.
I'll consider the -V option, I didn't even know ldapdomaindump is part of Kali nowadays 😄
