It's in the interaction between three libraries: openldap, cyrus-sasl, krb5

Broken in 18.04 and also in 20.10 (I guess it's also broken in anything
inbetween)
> 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy

---------------
Microsoft ActiveDirectory has "LDAP Channel Binding" and recommends activating
this as a required feature. See https://access.redhat.com/articles/4661861
Authentication to any AD DC which has mandatory channel binding fails.
Channel binding requires at least an update to cyrus-sasl, which is not
in any release as far as I can see:
https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-
sasl/commit/975edbb69070eba6b035f08776de771a129cfb57
It also needs this commit in openldap:
https://git.openldap.org/openldap/openldap/-/commit/3cd50fa8b32a21040a9892e2a8a7a9dfc7541ce6
Which as far as I can tell is v2.5 (branch OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_5).
RH also mentions it needs up-to-date krb5 libraries, but I can't tell what
minimum version this needs.
I can build all libraries from source, current master (except for krb5 where
I've used 1.18.3) and can confirm that channel binding works when using those
libraries.
I'm not sure if Samba is affected, but at least adcli, ldap-utils, and I would
guess by extension also SSSD and realmd.
