Current Series Release Notes

4.2.0

Bug Fixes

• Fixes issues with the refresh of Session based authentication where a previous refresh attempt failing could result in a fallback to Basic authentication and would silently fail. The client library now attempts to re-authenticate.

• Fixes silent failures when a refresh of an authentication Session fails and was unable to be re-established due to an AccessError. Should this occur, now the AccessError exception is explicitly raised as opposed to attempting to fall back to Basic authentication.

• Fixes issues where the Session and Basic auth interface would fallback to Basic authentication should a ConnectionError exception occur while attempting to perform an authentication action. ConnectionError exceptions are signs of networking transport issues, and should be investigated. A ConnectionError exception is now raised.

• Prevents the combined Session and Basic authentication support from falling back to Basic authentication once Session based authentication has been established. This should be considered a potential security issue or an environmental change requiring potential client re-initialization. This is exposed as an AccessError exception. Continued operations against the Sushy library will attempt to reauthenticate, if possible.
