Update to 2026.6.1 Causes Login Failures

Updated to 2026.6.1 and almost immediately started getting login failure errors from my own router. I do not have to enter a login / password each time I want to connect to my HA, as I have enabled remember my login, so even though I see the error in the logs, I was able to login; but something kept trying to login from one of my devices, that after about 2 minutes, the IP of my router was banned, as I have ip_ban enabled in my configuration.yaml file.

I logged out of all my devices, deleted all tokens; but still after about 2 minutes, my IP was banned. The only solution I found was to set ip_ban_enabled to false, to allow me the time to restore from the backup I made prior to the update. I reverted to 2026.6.0 and the issue disappeared.

Same issue here. I updated to 2026.6.1 and I'm also getting an IP ban due to these login failures.

+1, same here. It immediately bans every remote client. I set ip_ban_enabled to false in configuration.yaml. After that, the GUI became accessible again, and I was able to restore the backup directly from the GUI.
(On HAOS, it wouldn’t let me restore the automatic backup from the CLI because its status was marked as partial.)

Same issue here. Clients but also devices get Authorization attempt warnings. The strang this is it's impacting even esp or modbus devices!

Have you addressed this error comment?

Issues with custom integrations should be reported directly to the custom integration repository issues tab.

thank you.

NB: tbh AD - it's not custom integration...

Your error logs say different. It may simply be a custom integration conflict. Disable them individually and troubleshoot

no

Those specific warnings from homeassistant.loader are just standard system notices indicating that custom components (bluetti_bt, ecoflow_cloud, etc.) are installed. They are not error logs, and they are completely unrelated to the network layer issue.

The actual root cause is listed right after that in the main log body:

WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.http.ban] Login attempt or request with invalid authentication from 192.168.88.64 Requested URL: '/api/camera_proxy/camera.garage_cam?token=...&time=1780806600'

This shows that immediately after a Core restart, the camera_proxy auth tokens used by the dashboard become invalid. The dashboard attempts to fetch the stream with the expired token, resulting in an instant IP ban via the http.ban component.

Disabling unrelated Bluetooth or Cloud custom integrations won't fix an architectural change in how camera_proxy validates tokens post-restart in 2026.6.1. I will open an issue directly in the AppDaemon repository since this requires a proper fix for handling 403/401 token renewals on the client side.

Maybe I'm a bit slow, but how are your Reolink cams connected to HA?

The Widgets work fine with IOS 2026.6.1, but I'll fire up an Android device and test. TBH you haven't exactly provided much of your system/setup, http: config and cam data. I only found out the cams were Reolink from your GitHub post

Are you using Kiosk Mode and what's the Android version?

I have the exact same problem after updating to 2026.6.1. I am getting "Login attempt failed" almost constantly. I tried logging out and logging back in, but it doesn't help; I am still being spammed.

It doesn't matter if I'm accessing it from outside or from the local network.
(android, macos)

Have exactly the same issue. Login from my laptop of iphone, even if login correctly, I still get the same warning. There's something wrong with the latest release.

Chiming in, after modifying a picture glance card to display the stream of a new camera, my whole 192.168.0.0/24 range was banned. I had to start the Samba addon through the console to edit out 192.168.0.1 from the ip_bans.yaml

Every time I open the section with all my Camera Snapshots or Picture cards the login failure pops up for the PC I opened the section from. Seems to be related to the internal Image API

Strangely I am getting login failures in my logs, but as far as I can tell the device in question isn't failing to log in. The IP below is just my desktop computer where I left HA open in a tab in my browser, I see no sign of login failure on the tab itself (everything is working).

I have this same exact issue after the latest update.

Do you have an active reverse proxy?
