5.5.0 (Nov 20, 2025)
BEHAVIOR CHANGES: With v5.5.0, the default value for deny_null_bind in the vault_ldap_auth_backend resource has changed from false to true
to match with the Vault API defaults. Configurations that do not explicitly set deny_null_bind will now have it set to true upon upgrade, and
customers should verify that this change aligns with their intended LDAP authentication behavior. Furthermore, Customers should also consider
upgrading to Vault Community Edition 1.21.1 and Vault Enterprise 1.21.1, 1.20.6, 1.19.12, and 1.16.28, which no longer allows Vault to perform
unauthenticated or null binds against the LDAP server.
