Describe the bug
One of our users in domain environment cannot log in to Wiki.js recently (for about 2 weeks).
Other users so far don't have this problem.

One user receives error:
insert into "users" ("createdAt", "email", "isActive", "isSystem", "isVerified", "localeCode", "name", "pictureUrl", "providerId", "providerKey", "tfaIsActive", "updatedAt") values ($1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7, $8, $9, $10, $11, $12) returning "id" - invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0x00

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Go to wiki.js page
Click on LDAP/Active Directory
enter username + PW
Click Log In

Expected behavior
Login to wiki

This is a known bug related to the user picture field containing binary data. Replace the Avatar Picture Field Mapping with something else in the meantime.
