Security Validation Issue – Form Services issue with SP1+June 2011 CU (Release 2) #in #SP2010 #SharePoint #MSProject #ProjectServer
We are testing Service Pack 1 heavily in my project that I have talked about on this blog many times.
One of the features of our implementation is a number of developed InfoPath forms. We found one issue previously that required a hotfix and it looks like SP1 and June 2011 CU (Release 2) has introduced another.
My colleague Paul Busby has mentioned it here:
and another user has also confirmed the issue.
I shall be sending the details below to Microsoft through our partner support and hopefully we can get a resolution.
Scenario:
- Form Services
- Administrator Approved Form
- Server Version: 14.0.6106.5002 (Office 2010 SP1 + June 2011 CU – Release 2)
- Client Version: 14.0.6023.1000 (Office 2010 SP1)
- NB: June 2011 Cumulative Update does not include updates for InfoPath 2010
- Microsoft June 2011 Cumulative Update for Office 2010 Client Applications – KB2259686: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2259686/en-us
The form has two views:
- View one has a people picker
- View two is blank
The form is uploaded via Central Administration and activated to a site collection
A form library is created and the associated content type is attached
Upon creating a new form, the form loads
When the user switches views in the form, a Security Validation Error occurs:
Further Details:
- We have discovered that it appears to happen when switching to or from a view that contains a people picker field.
- Turning off security validation, allows the form to continue to work, but this is not something we want to go live with
- This issue has been found on a client DEV and TEST environment as well as a newly installed RTM machine upgraded to SP1 + June 2011 CU Release 2

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the Microsoft support and product teams in working with us to detail the issue and come to a resolution. We are testing the go live environment with April CU 2011 as I write this and the fix will dramatically improve the UI for the custom forms that we have developed.
