Description Jeff Fearn 🐞 2018-12-16 22:26:15 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1659049 +++

I just clicked a link from an bugzilla email in my mail-client without having a bugzilla session active, then the following happened:

1) The bug opened but I could not comment, so I clicked on the login link which is at the bottom where you would normally comment.

2) This took me to a new page, where I had to clock on the "RH associates" link

3) After this I got logged in and ended up on the bugzilla homepage, I had to go back 2 steps in my browser-history + do a reload to be able to finally add a comment to the bug,

As I see it there are 2 things which could be improved here:

1) Bugzilla should remember (set a cookie) that I use the "RH associates" method of logging in and do this automatically

From our perspective there doesn't seem to be any major risks here to remembering the choice and we're happy with the change. The only potential leakage (that the local user is an RH associate) doesn't present too much of a risk from my view. If you had a specific question/concern from me, let me know!
