Summary: API returns 'WrongPass' despite correct password,
perhaps login throttling
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: API
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
The API occasionally returns 'WrongPass' for a login attempt despite the
password sent being correct. Based on what I am doing at the time I think this
is due to the login throttle being activated somehow.
Desired behavior:
* The login throttle should never be tripped as long as no incorrect password
is ever sent.
* When the login throttle is tripped, the error should not be WrongPass.
Query sent:
action => 'login'
format => 'xml'
lgname => '******'
lgpassword => '******'
XML received: { 'login' => { 'result' => 'WrongPass' } };
