Bill Hays created DS-1216:
-----------------------------
Summary: ShibAuthentication method getSpecialGroups goes against
spec in requiring shib login
Key: DS-1216
URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1216
Project: DSpace
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.8.2
Reporter: Bill Hays
The authentication interface description for getSpecialGroups states that the
user need not be logged in, however the current implementation returns an empty
list if the user is not logged in (i.e. EPerson is null) or not logged in via
shib. Additionally, there is a misleading log line about adding the EPerson to
special groups. This bug is distinct from those described in other tickets for
the same class. I have tested the removal of these contraints and not noticed
any ill effects while allowing the intended behavior of allowing shib
affiliations to effect special groups authorization.
