The new CentOS 7.4.1708 and update has upgraded freeradius to 3.0.13-8, which should include 3.0.12 fix for the detail log file fix.
Is this version good enough?

No.  On further checks... you'll have to install the v3.0.x branch from git.  It has some additional fixes which should help here.
I have downloaded the zip file. After satisfying most of libraries in the Warning section, I was able to compile the code (3.0.16).
However, the $FREERADIUS/etc/raddb/policy.d/filter file seems to have some syntax problem:

                if (&User-Name =~ /\.\./ ) {
                        update request {
                                &Module-Failure-Message += 'Rejected: User-Name contains multiple ..s'
                        }
                        reject
                }

The older version has these code

       if (&User-Name =~ /\\.\\./ ) {
                update reply {
                        Reply-Message += "Rejected: Username contains ..s"
                }
                reject
        }

Actually, I was hit by this one while testing freeradius 3..0.13-8 on CentOS 7.4.1708 as well, I had to put \\.\\. back to be able to login into a test switch.

Shall I file a bug report somewhere?

Thank you.
