Description Tim Landscheidt 2014-10-06 04:23:20 UTC

A probable spammer managed to get trailing newlines into the LDAP records:

| dn: uid=jakeanderson,ou=people,dc=wikimedia,dc=org
|         uid: jakeanderson
|         objectClass: person
|         objectClass: organizationalPerson
|         objectClass: inetorgperson
|         objectClass: ldappublickey
|         objectClass: shadowaccount
|         objectClass: posixaccount
|         objectClass: top
|         loginShell: /usr/local/bin/sillyshell
|         uidNumber: 10648
|         gidNumber: 500
|         sn: Jakeanderson
|         homeDirectory: /home/jakeanderson
|         mail: g.zd.wc.hq.o.i.ouwew16.7@gmail.com

|         cn: Jakeanderson

(Other occurences: Alexapenson, Jesusdavis, Valeriacarter.)  The current mail setup at Tools shouldn't barf at that, but IMHO the addresses should have been rejected by the UI.
