1979293 - Document LDAP bind password constraints

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, enhancement)

Description

[Georg Pfuetzenreuter]

Steps to reproduce:

I read the documentation.

Actual results:

It did not explain constraints for "LDAPbinddn", giving the impression of all passwords being supported.

Expected results:

It should have explained that colons must not be contained in the password due to use of split() on the colon character.

I will submit a patch.

/Bugzilla/Auth/Verify/LDAP.pm:
-    my ($LDAPbinddn, $LDAPbindpass) = split(":", Bugzilla->params->{"LDAPbinddn"});
+    my ($LDAPbinddn, $LDAPbindpass) = split(":", Bugzilla->params->{"LDAPbinddn"}, 2);
