             Summary: ComplexDnParser silently discards trailing garbage after 
last RDN
                 Key: DIRAPI-460
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-460
             Project: Directory Client API
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.1.8
            Reporter: Emmanuel Lécharny
             Fix For: 2.1.9


An application validates a user-supplied *DN* with _Dn.isValid()/new Dn(input) 
_and forwards _dn.getName()_.
The attacker submits '_uid=jsmith\\2C<,uid=admin,ou=system_' — the complex 
parser validates only '_uid=jsmith,_' yet _getName() _returns the whole string.
A downstream stricter parser (*OpenLDAP*, *JNDI LdapName*) reads it as ending 
with '_uid=admin,ou=system_', enabling identity/authorization confusion between 
validating and consuming components.
