Summary

When adding a group or user in global or plan permissions, Bamboo does not check for case sensitivity of the added name. However, names are case sensitive when used to verify if the user or group has permission.

Environment

When using LDAP user repositories or Crowd

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a group/user named MixedCase in Crowd
2. Add group/user mixedcase in Bamboo Global or Plan Permission Access

Expected Results

Bamboo should throw a Group not found error as the cases does not match

Actual Results

The group/user is added successfully to the global/user permission. However, users/groups will still have no access as usernames group names are supposed to be case sensitive

Workaround

• When adding group/user permission, ensure that they are in the correct case
• Alternatively, configure groups to use lower case in Bamboo and enforce lower case in Crowd
