Problem Note 16000: Information Delivery Portal session timeout and the browser BACK button causes unintended results

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

When using the Information Delivery Portal and a user logs out or is logged out due to the session timeout value, unintended actions can occur with the SASGUEST account.

Once the user is logged out, the SASGUEST user is logged in automatically for public access. If the browser BACK button is selected, the log in operations are available as the guest user. Any write operation to the data can be executed. These operations should only occur if a non-public user is logged into the Portal.
