XF 2.2 Bug? Server error: Error on ip ban wildcard

[Black Tiger]

Seems XF 2.2.13 has an issue with ip bans. I didn't see that on 2.2.12 yet.

    XF\PrintableException: Job PB\ACPI:IpBanJob: Gelieve een geldige IP of IP-bereik in te voeren. Jokertekens mogen alleen op het einde gebruikt worden. src/XF/Repository/Banning.php:251

The first line has Dutch text, I translated it via Google so that should read:

XF\PrintableException: Job PB\ACPI:IpBanJob: Please enter a valid IP or IP range. Wildcards may only be used at the end. src/XF/Repository/Banning.php:251

However, I don't have any wildcards on ip addresses in the banning section, only on banned e-mail addresses and that should not be an issue.

So why is this suddenly going wrong?

Looks like some add-on (PB/ACPI) is actually just passing an empty string, which is being flagged as an empty IP address. You'd need to ask the add-on author for support.

Looks like some add-on (PB/ACPI)

The only addon which might affect the adminCP is "[OzzModz] Admin Control Panel Improvements 2.0.0" is that the one which might cause this.
I will ask in the support forum, thanks.
