Some email addresses can be entered twice and they'll receive two voting keys about civs HOT 14 CLOSED

Found the bug. Sometimes Perl semantics are really error-prone! Thanks a lot for creating the video, which let me reproduce the bug once I followed it to the T!

Are all the voting keys a given email receives the same? That would be harmless.

No, that's the thing, they aren't. I'll gladly forward you those mails. For example these two:

https://civs.cs.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/vote.pl?id=E_4f44cbb02982d36c&key=79a37530650a668d

from civs.

Please do send those to me by email. Thanks.

They're on their way.

I have tried to follow your instructions but I haven't been able to reproduce this bug so far. Any non-default settings on the poll I should know about?

from civs.

Uhm, private poll with extended ballot reporting. E-mail address of supervisor always matched that of one participant. Besides that nothing.

And suddenly I can't seem to repro anymore. 😞

Is it possible you confused keys coming from two different polls? Different polls generate entirely different keys for the same voters.

As you can see in this post I got two different keys for the same id. I guess that means two votes in the same poll.

Those were taken from the "Poll: The Chaotic Primary II" mails.

Okay, we can still reproduce this and can demo this in a Jitsi Meet screensharing session or create a screencast (have to look into how to do what on wayland though).

Edit: OBS studio did the trick, link on it's way to you.

Hey, I haven't heard back yet. Have you received the video? Could you confirm the issue yet?

Great, just wanted to make sure there was no problem at my end.
