Severity: 3-Major
Remote role group authentication fails if there is a space in attribute name of remote-role role-info.
LDAP authentication fails.
This occurs when the auth remote-role role-info attribute name contains a space character.
Remove space characters from LDAP attribute group name. Another option is to use '\20' in place of spaces in the remote-role's role-info member-of attribute, for example: memberOf=CN=Some Big Group,CN=Users,DC=DOMAIN,DC=COM becomes: memberOf=CN=Some\20Big\20Group,CN=Users,DC=DOMAIN,DC=COM
Remote role group authentication now succeeds as expected with a space in LDAP attribute group name.
