Hi!
In our site, www.conacytprensa.mx we have several components, including Admin Tools and Akeeba Backup, always working fine. One of those components is My Content & Workflow from CMS Plugin.
A few weeks ago we started having problems with the login of the superusers into the My Content component through the front-end, not via back-end. Obviously, we tried to find the solution in My Content. After searching the web and reading some open forums we found some comments that suggest a security issue. Today we turned off Admin Tools / Akeeba and we could get into the component My Content through the front-end, as before.
It was working all components fine, we think that maybe with an Admin Tools actualization it started the problem, but we didn't realize it may be connected. A user with Editor credentials (or less) can log in with no trouble, only the superusers can't.
Thank you in advance for your time.

Under Web Application Firewall, Configure WAF, on the Joomla! Feature Hardening Options tab, set the "Forbid front-end Super Administrator login" setting to "No". That should fix the problem.
