| Topic: | Overriding of frozen values in Moodle forms |
| Severity: | Minor |
| Versions affected: | < 1.8.7, < 1.9.3 |
| Reported by: | Ashley Holman |
| Issue no.: | MDL-16839 |
| Solution: | update to latest releases |
Description:
Anshley Holman reported that it is possible to side step user profile locking mechanism. The cause of this is in our quickforms integration, unfortunately it can not be fixed without potential regressions. We have decided to work around this problem by using setConstant() together with hardFreeze(). Please update your code in a similar way if required. The problem will be fully resolved in 2.0.
