strange admin account found after installation

Asked by Fulmar Engineering 5 years ago Last activity 5 years ago

I'm just installing the Travelia Quickstart.
After creating my admin account and deleting the install folder, after logging in there are 2 administrator accounts.
One I just created (as expected) and a second one named "admin" with an email adress of [email protected]

What is this for? Hope this is not a backdoor?

Hi!
I've blocked the user and assigned it to the user group public instead of super users.

Apology for the inconvenice. Please go to your Database and from the xxxxx_users table delete that additional super user.

thanks for your help!
User deleted.
was this user created by the installation package?
Can you confirm that this was no backdoor?

Yes, I can confirm. It was mistakenly added from our quickstart. Nothing to worry about this.
