Problem with Listserv authentication

Incident Report for University of Louisville

Postmortem

Listserv uses cookies to maintain the logged in session. Unfortunately Listserv v16 had a hardcoded cookie expiration date of 01/01/2020. This made all logins fail on New Year’s Day. The issue was resolved by upgrading to v17.
