Bug Fixes in LUNA 7.5.3

  • Fixed a bug causing searches to return more than one value when using quoted searches in the Viewer.
  • Fixed a bug in the Viewer whereby Related Item counts in the Detail View didn't display if the value had spaces within it.
  • Fixed an issue in the Viewer to allow users to make private annotations on non-LUNA IIIF images.
  • Fixed a bug in the LUNA Library causing the user list not to display when setting restrictions.
  • Updated LUNA's Java-based logging package to Log4j2 due to a very serious vulnerability that was publicly reported.

    The previous version of LUNA used Log4j version 1 which did not contain the serious vulnerability, but prompted us to update to a fully secure version of log4j version 2.
