I see one mention of something in the imapd.conf manpage but it's just about the format of the database involved. (Says it defaults to "flat"; is that a good idea? I don't anticipate having more than a handful of users banned in this way.) I will see if I can whip something up that pulls a group out of ldap and calls cyr_dbtool appropriately. Run it from cron and I'll be done.
A few years ago I asked the question how to manage user_deny.db Below you find the answer from Dan. Quoting Dan White <dwhite@xxxxxxx>:

For the format of the database value, see: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/imapd/internal/database-formats.html When using the shell, you will need to escape your tabs. In bash, I typed: "2<ctrl-v><tab>pop3<ctrl-v><tab>Can't use pop." And then I get: telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to zek.olp.net.
