> Method UpdateEPerson in ShibAuthentication not catching exceptions, and more
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: DS-1203
>                 URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1203
>             Project: DSpace
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: DSpace API
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.1, 1.8.2
>            Reporter: Bill Hays
>              Labels: authentication, shibboleth
>   Original Estimate: 2 hours
>  Remaining Estimate: 2 hours
>
> updateEPerson() is not testing for null strings with variables fname and 
> lname and calling methods on them.
> findHeader() is not testing for null param "name" and calling a method on it.
> There should be an option whether to have updateEPerson called and so another 
> configuration property should be set up for this.  Not all Shibboleth 
> providers  send all the attributes (with or without values) of interest to 
> this method.  And even if they are there, not all institutions will want to 
> update their EPersons in this way.   Too many assumptions are made in this 
> reimplementation of this class.
