Description

Looks like we've gotten some spam registrations lately. The new members don't seem to show up in the member list on the homepage or in the network admin (as far as I can tell), but in these last two cases, the registrations successfully create blogs at signup that now exist on the site. Will forward specific info to you via email.

I introduced this bug in the last release. It was related to #1515.

It's been fixed in https://github.com/castiron/cac/commit/c75ce07c2cae58480a6da4df0d305353a05cc0d5

There appear to have been five spam user/blog registrations. I have marked them all as spam, which I think wraps up the damage in this ticket.

Thanks, Boone. Some attention to the activity stream may be required -- I may be wrong, but I think that there are a few spam posts on the home page in the Recent Blog Posts column.
