Description:
When attempting to connect to a MySQL server using MySQL Workbench, an error message "parameter not valid" is displayed. This occurs despite the connection parameters being correct. The issue seems to be intermittent and affects multiple users on different machines.

How to repeat:
Open MySQL Workbench.
Create a new connection with the following parameters:
Hostname: localhost
Port: 3306
Username: root
Password: ShruthiPatel@1242
Attempt to connect to the server.
Observe the "parameter not valid" error message.

Suggested fix:
Investigate the validation logic for connection parameters in MySQL Workbench. Ensure that all inputs are correctly sanitized and handle cases where parameters might be misinterpreted or corrupted.

Hello Shruthi,

Thank you for the bug report.
To investigate further this issue at our end, may I kindly request you to launch workbench under debug mode (--log-level=debug3) and provide unaltered workbench log file(more details about log are explained here - https://dev.mysql.com/doc/workbench/en/workbench-reporting-bugs.html)?
