WebV: PIN login works with default PIN if last name contains diacritics
- Article Type: Known Issue
- Product: Voyager
- Product Version: 7.0.1
Symptoms
If PIN usage enabled in WebVoyage, patrons whose last name contains a diacritic are able to log in with both their own PIN and the default PIN
Defect Status
Issue 16384-13713 resolved for Voyager 8.1.0 and higher.
Replication steps
- In webvoyage.properties, ensure that option.usePIN=Y and that option.defaultPIN=0000
- In Circulation, create a patron record with the last name of WebVoyáge
- Set the patron’s PIN to 12345
- Load WebVoyáge and log into MyAccount using the barcode, last name and PIN entered into Circulation. Everything should work as expected
- Log out of WebVoyáge and log back in, this time using a PIN of 0000 instead of 12345. Patron still authenticated even though PIN is incorrect
