U2F security key issue with Chrome in Incognito mode and Edge in InPrivate mode – April 23rd

Starting April 23rd last Friday, U2F security key stopped working on Chrome (version 90.0.4430.85) in incognito mode and Edge (Chromium 90.0.818.49) in InPrivate mode for Central Authentication Service (CAS). This was due to a Chromium update that was released. A bug request was submitted to the Chromium project. Chrome has since released a new version 90.0.4430.93, which has this issue fixed. If you experience this issue in Chrome, please update to the latest version. We will update when there is an update from Edge. Please note that this issue does not impact both Chrome and Edge in regular mode.

Update – May 7th, 2021 – The latest Edge (Chromium 90.0.818.56) has this issue fixed.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
