Hi All,

Recently we have installed AEM 6.5.5 SP and the login option is not visible anymore though CRXDE. Has anyone faced this issue.

    Hi @subrato_kha ,

     

    “The login and logout buttons have been removed on purpose from CRXDE for security reasons (internal ID: GRANITE-27790). Back ported to AEM 6.5.5.0 as part NPR-33521.”

     

    Workarounds:

    https://<IP>:<PORT>/libs/granite/core/content/login.html
    login and then navigate to /crx/de

     

    https://<IP>:<PORT>/libs/granite/core/content/login.html?resource=crx/de

     

    For Publisher

    https://<IP>:<PORT>/crx/packmgr/index.jsp

    login, then navigate to /crx/de

      Hi @subrato_kha,

      This is to reduce attack surface, CRX DE Lite should only be accessible to logged-in user.

       

      Acceptance criteria as per GRANITE-27790 are as:

      ~ anonymous users cannot use features of CRX DE Lite (both UI and API)
      ~ the feature is configurable
      ~ default installations have safe config (anonymous access is blocked)

       

      We have a doc bug CQDOC-16016 raised for this to include this behavior available on our official documentation link. 

       

      Thanks!!

        I would also like to know what is configurable, can we re-enable it again?, if so how, since this causes a real hassle for us on publish servers, security or not.
