Private username mode: Server refresh requests 'email and password'

Open jesslyw opened this issue 7 months ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug In the pop-up to refresh server session, credentials are listed as 'email and password' even when using private username mode (defined as not tied to an email address):

"Please enter your account email and password. Your credentials are needed for [...] to refresh your session with the server."

which although works with the username hash looks like an illegitimate credential request, as the user has no actual email associated with the account

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. create account with private username mode (no email)
  2. observe the pop up request to resync server session: asks for email/password
  3. enter private username hash in the 'email' field and corresponding password
  4. session is refreshed

Expected behavior credentials requested are username/password instead of email/password

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: MacOS
  • Version 3.173.20
