Description
v2.4/v3.1 regression: auth-ldap is not escaping usernames. If auth_username_chars is empty, it is possible to inject arbitrary LDAP filter to Dovecot's LDAP authentication. This leads to potentially bypassing restrictions and allows probing of LDAP structure. No publicly available exploits are known.
