Issue with Security Attribute 'UserIsAuthenticated'

Hi,

Is anyone else having issues with ACLs using the 'UserIsAuthenticated' security attribute?
Both ACLs I have tested in our instances that use this ACL are evaluating false despite users being authenticated.

Ex: ACL sys_journal_field/read
Decision Type: Deny Unless
Security Attribute: UserIsAuthenticated
Condition: LoggedIn=true^ORAllowUnauthRolelessAcl=true

Despite a user being logged in and accessing this table's list, this specific ACL is returning false. If I disable it, they can see the records they have access to.


I have the same issue with an ACL on the sys_template table where the operation is write, but otherwise the decision type and conditions are the same:
Deny Unless; Security Attribute: UserIsAuthenticated.

The user cannot write to fields they used to be able to write to.

As far as I can tell, this issue started with one of the Yokohama upgrades.
