Affected version(s): OXGuard 2.8

...

-rev16 and lower

Problem

...

A user sends

...

and encrypted mail to an unknown "external" address and

...

uses the extra PIN functionality. The

...

recipient does not see the extra PIN, only a password which he does not yet know

...

. This is confusing for the end user.

...

During the time of this writing there is going to be a patch for this against OXGuard 2.8.x in order to fix this, but in the meantime a work around can be done

...

bgColor#fff

The issue arrises when when the user is not assigned a password, but a PIN was applied.

...

To reproduce,

...

make sure the following settings are

...

applied:

guard-core.properties:

...

com.openexchange.guard.newGuestsRequirePassword=false

...

guard-api.properties:

...

com.openexchange.capability.guard-pin=true

...

Workaround #1

Send the encrypted mail, but do not use the extra PIN functionality. In this case, the guest receives the encrypted message with a link to the temporary account. After following this link, the user is recognized as a new guest and can set his own password.

Workaround #2

If

com.openexchange.guard.newGuestRequirePassword=true then the user will have a password available, and will then be prompted for a pin.

...

titleDoes Work

guard-core.properties:

...

com.openexchange.guard.newGuestsRequirePassword=true

...

guard-api.properties:

...

com.openexchange.capability.guard-pin=true
