Some users were incorrectly prompted to reset their password in CAS – Jan. 24, 2020 11:05 am – 11:20 am

Starting January 24, 2020 at 11:05 AM, some users were incorrectly prompted by our Central Authentication System (CAS) to change their password due to an expired password, when in fact, their password was not expired.
