* (bug 29424) Fix for underscore form and other non-normalized usernames on Special:GlobalUserRights (CentralAuth version) Names weren't being validated at all before being sent off to CentralAuthUser, which itself doesn't seem to do any validation. Running through User::getCanonicalName() to clean it up, same as is used for User::newFromName(). Comment: Quick fix needs backport to 1.17 & 1.18 & for deployment. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
