Bug #13436
closedInput validation on ``system_advanced_firewall.inc`` uses incorrect variable references for some fields
100%
Description
A few fields in /usr/local/pfSense/include/www/system_advanced_firewall.inc are being incorrectly validated.
- `adaptiveend` is incorrectly being referred to as `adaptive-end` during validation.
- `maximumstates` is incorrectly being referred to as `firewall-maximum-states` during validation.
- `aliasesresolveinterval` is incorrectly being referred to as `aliases-hostnames-resolve-interval` during validation. (On the frontend, this field also has its input type `type=text` so any arbitrary value could be entered and accepted here.)
- `maximumtableentries` is incorrectly being referred to as `firewall-maximum-table-entries` during validation, but is validated correctly further down in the file.
I searched for references to the incorrect names and only see them in this file so I'm assuming they were just leftover from a refactor at some point.

Looks like a remnant of the Bootstrap GUI work many years ago, most fields were fixed in #5025 but those were apparently missed.

The validation seems to be working correctly now, but the 'aliasesresolveinterval' is still set as a text input on the front-end. 'maximumtableentries' & 'maximumfrags' are also set as text input, but the back-end prevents anything other than integers.

Should this be in Feedback, Resolved, or is there more work to be done based on the last feedback?

This issue was specifically about the variable names being incorrect which was causing the validation to be non-functional. The type mismatch isn't fatal or preventing anything from working so I'd say that's more appropriate for a separate request.
Closing.
