It affects the Lookup() filter, the AuthPlain() DN template, and the AuthPlain() filter, enabling unauthorized users to impersonate legitimate accounts, enumerate directory information, and extract sensitive LDAP attributes by exploiting timing discrepancies and boolean oracle responses. The vulnerability has been addressed in version 0.9.3.
