Nonsensical hint continuously fills the log file with about 50 entries per second

Description:

Since the last updates (certainly since version 7.8.0), the log file (or Administration / Reports) has been filled with the message "{"level":50,"time":"2025-08-13T12:55:33.710Z","pid":1,"hostname":"4a3a55b6539e","name":"LDAP","msg":"Please setup LDAP Group Filter and LDAP Group BaseDN in LDAP Settings."} approximately 50 times per second, causing the log file to grow by approximately 1 GB per day. However, the LDAP Group Filter isn't useful for our integration into Active Directory, as a filter with "memberOf" works perfectly, making the error problematic.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Administration / Workspace / Settings / LDAP / User Search : Deaktivate Group Filter
2. go to Administration / Workspace / Reports

Expected behavior:

Max. one Message per hour

Actual behavior:

Nearly 50 Messages per Second

Reproduce the issue from Administration / Workspace / Settings / LDAP / User Search by deactivating Group Filter, then opening Administration / Workspace / Reports. Trace the LDAP warning shown in the relevant logs and determine why it repeats rapidly. Done means the warning is emitted no more than once per hour while LDAP integration using a memberOf filter continues to work.
