Password brute-force possible for locked account due to different return codes :

A flaw was found in the way 389-ds-base handled authentication attempts against locked accounts. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to continue password brute-forcing attacks against LDAP accounts, thereby bypassing the protection offered by the directory server’s password lockout policy. (CVE-2017-7551)
