Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information or bypass authentication checks implemented in the workflow.

The vulnerability exists due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an LDAP query in the LDAP node filter escape logic when interpolating user-controlled input into LDAP search filters. A remote attacker can supply crafted input through expressions to disclose sensitive information or bypass authentication checks implemented in the workflow.

Exploitation requires a workflow configuration in which external user input is passed via expressions into the LDAP node's search parameters.
