Hi guys,
I'm a bit deeper into the DN/RDN problem. Now, the issue I have is that I
don't know how we should handle shuch case :
- an AT like "cn: \ user" having an escaped space at the beginning.
- an entry which DN is "cn=\ user,ou=system"
The check is done internally comparing the RDN ("cn=\ user") and the
Attribute value. Sadly, when we parse the DN, we remove the '\' (as it's not
significant), keeping the leading space. But then, we normalize the RDN
applying the CN normalizer to it, which removes the leading space.
Here we should not compare the RDN and the attribute value. Instead
the RDN's AVA value need to be used for comparison. The RDN AVA value
should not contain the '\'.
It does not contain the '\', but the space is also stripped. So "cn: \
User" is internally transformed into an AVA containing "user" as a value
(the \ and the space are removed after the value normalization...
