[Resolved] Notice about service outage for LINE Login

We'd like to inform you about a service outage regarding the LINE Login. We've released a version of LINE that resolved the issue.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused.

# Date and time of outage

August 20, 2020 - September, 21, 2020 JST (GMT+9)

# Cause

Issue with LINE for iOS and iPadOS.

# Details

When LINE Login was integrated into an iOS app with LINE SDK for iOS, some LINE Login processes didn't work properly.

Normally, in iOS apps with the LINE Login feature, these processes launch LINE.

  1. A user presses the LINE Login button on the iOS app.
  2. LINE is launched with a universal link.
  3. If step 2 fails, LINE is launched with a custom URL scheme.

Although LINE supports universal links, LINE may not be able to be launched with some universal links on certain devices or operating systems.

If you proceeded to step 3 in the above situation, LINE Login didn't work properly on some versions of LINE, and an alert saying Unable to connect. Update to the latest version of LINE or recheck the URL. was displayed on LINE.

# Affected services

If all of these conditions are met, the LINE Login process didn't work properly and an error message was displayed.

  • A user uses LINE for iOS or iPadOS.
  • A user uses LINE version 10.14.0 or 10.14.1.
  • LINE isn't launched with a universal link on a user's environment.
  • LINE Login was integrated into an iOS app with the LINE SDK for iOS Swift or LINE SDK for iOS Objective-C 5.0.0 or later.

If all of the above conditions are met, updating user's LINE version to 10.15.0 or later will resolve the issue.

LINE will continue to improve the quality of its services to prevent future outages. Thank you for your understanding.

For issue 2, the correct value can't be restored.

[Resolved] Member users were able to retrieve Channel secret because of a bug

We discovered and fixed a bug in the LINE Developers Console that allowed Member users to obtain a channel secret. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.

On July 24, 2019, we emailed this information to all administrators of channels with Member users.

# Issue time

Issue inception: September 21, 2017

Issue solved: July 17, 2019

# Details

There was a bug that allowed Member users to obtain the channel secret, which should have appeared only to Admin users.

The Channel settings tab did not display the channel secret when a Member user viewed the page. However, the API that the LINE Developers Console called in the background did return the channel secret. Therefore, a malicious Member user could have obtained and abused the channel secret.

What is a channel secret?

The channel secret is a secret key provided by LINE to call our APIs and validate identities. It should be kept secret from unauthorized parties.

Member user permissions

Originally, Member users can only view basic information and statistics for a channel. They don't have access to the channel secret.

# What you should do

If you're concerned that unauthorized Member users have obtained your channel secret, you should issue a new one. Doing so will invalidate the previous channel secret.

After you issue a new channel secret, you'll have to update it in the app which uses the channel secret. Carefully consider the impact of issuing a new channel secret on your app.

# How to issue a new channel secret

You can issue a new channel secret on the Channel settings tab in the LINE Developers Console.

Forced reissue of channel secret

LINE will not forcibly reissue new channel secrets. The Admin user for each channel should decide whether it's necessary to reissue a new channel secret.

# Acknowledgement

This bug was reported through the LINE Security Bug Bounty Program (opens new window).

LINE will continue to improve the quality of its services to prevent future outages. Thank you for your understanding.
