Hello All,

I've been having this nagging issue off and on for a while now. Some users, only some, see this message. I've been unable to recreate the issue on my end.

I've checked configuration.php - live site is ''
I've checked CB configuration - anti-spoof check is off

I'm using CB 1.7.1 on J1.5.25

If it was everyone I'd have no problem tracking it down but it's only happening a few times every couple months or so. It's like a certain set of triggers are happening and a code path is being executed that normally wouldn't be. Without a way to recreate it it's near impossible to track down. There doesn't seem to be any common thread either, some IE on XP, some FF on Win7 etc...

In one instance I had to register the user manually myself. Same forms.

I run a test user registration in 5 browsers IE/FF/Chrome/Safari/Opera all succeed.

Any suggestions on tracking this down?

Thanks,
Jw

Please upgrade to CB 1.8 and confirm if issue persists.

Thanks for the reply.

But how does upgrading stop the code from executing cbSpoofCheck. In plugin.foundation.php the following define exists but is rarely used.
The cbSpoofCheck function still executes a loop through the $_POST variables. I suspect that it's this code that's causing this weirdness.

Has the code changed to not do this?

Please upgrade and confirm if issue persists. If it does we'll move forward from there. I'm sorry, but we don't have the resources to debug depreciated releases.

Upgraded and issue still persists...

My guess is due to it being for select users they may have Cookies disabled or too high security settings in their browser. Are you able to request what browser and what version of that browser they're using that's experiencing this (I know you mentioned IE/FF, but exact versions is helpful)?
