Add 3422610-4.patch to betterlogin to fix Redirect loop when accessing a forbidden route with 'user' query parameter

Created on 27 February 2024, 4 months ago
Updated 14 April 2024, 2 months ago

Problem/Motivation

When anonymously accessing a forbidden route while having "user" query parameter, the response will be a redirect to the originally requested URL, and therefore, the user will encounter an infinite redirect loop.

This is caused by betterlogin module and there's an existing patch that fixes the issue.

ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Steps to reproduce

  1. With fresh Varbase installation
  2. Anonymously navigate to /admin?user=x
  3. Observe the redirect loop
