Taint

When I attempt to create a GM Ticket, I get a taint error caused by CensusPlus. I disabled all of my other addons and got a taint log for you.

11/1 02:21:39.250 Execution tainted by CensusPlus while reading CombatLogQuickButtonFrame_Custom - Interface\FrameXML\FloatingChatFrame.lua:700 FCF_OnUpdate()
11/1 02:21:39.250 UIParent:OnUpdate()
11/1 02:21:39.250 An action was blocked because of taint from CensusPlus - NewGMTicket()

I'm trying to reproduce the error but I can't seem to do so.

Are you using the updated version 4.1.10?

Yes, I had just updated before running that taint log. (For what it's worth, the old version had the same problem.) I just double-checked to be sure, I do in fact have the new version installed.

I also figured out why you couldn't reproduce the issue. When I get the error is when I report an offensive name by shift-clicking on it to link it into the report. (This is the only way to report some of the names with non-alphabetic characters.) If I don't link a name into the window for the report, then the error does not occur.


I just tested it this way:
Create a ticket without linking a name. No error. Abandon ticket.
Create a ticking with linking a name. Error. Click Ignore.
Create a ticket without linking a name. No error. Abandon ticket.

So without restarting or reloading the UI, I can go from the taint error, to successfully creating a ticket. So it would seem that just that ticket gets tainted, not the whole ticket creating process. Bizarre, huh?

Wierd, but nice work on steps to reproduce!

Ok, can you explain what you mean by creating a ticket by clicking the name? Do you open the ticket first then link the name in somehow?

i think you can right click on someone's name to report them or ignore/invite to group etc.
