Within the QNA section of 'Manage Authentication Credentials' of Admin UI, some users may have a "Number of Failed Attempts = -2". This issue was introduced in 9.0. The CA Strong Authentication Reports may also show the same issue.
Cause
Root Cause Of The Issue:
To distinguish the abandoned/incomplete transactions from the successful/completed transactions, code started assigning "-2" to "Failed Attempts" field in the Reports, instead of "0".
Environment
CA Strong Authentication Release 9.0.
Resolution
Fix for the issue:
While displaying the field value for "Number of Failed Attempts" column in Reports and on the "Manage Credential" screen, the code is replacing "-2" with a "0", as it was the case in previous releases.
A hot fix exists at version 9.0 - CA-StrongAuth-9.0-DE392185-HotFix.zip. Please reach out to Broadcom Support for Advanced Authentication for this hot fix.
