Description

We updated to camel 3.18.4 and this broke camel-ldap, running against ActiveDirectory.

Filter string is "(CN=USERID)". In 3.18.4, this gets escaped to "\28CN=USERID\29" (changed by CAMEL-18696), which does not return a result, but instead throws this exception:

javax.naming.directory.InvalidSearchFilterException: invalid attribute description; remaining name 'OU=Std,OU=User,OU=ORG,DC=ad,DC=example,DC=com'

The same filter string used to work fine in 3.18.1
