## Technical details

An authenticated user with hotliner or technician role can submit crafted criteria through the user import feature that are not properly escaped before being used to construct LDAP filter strings. The vulnerability lies in AuthLDAP.php's buildLdapFilter method, which concatenates user-supplied values directly into LDAP filters without escaping special characters. A fix applies ldap_escape() to user input with the LDAP_ESCAPE_FILTER flag to neutralize filter injection attempts.
