Paul Foxworthy commented on OFBIZ-7824:
---------------------------------------
Some credit cards have different lengths. For example, American Express is 15,
not 16 digits.
Credit cards have a built-in checksum using the Luhn algorithm
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm). It would be far better to
verify the checksum, rather than just the number of digits.
There already is credit card checksum checking in OFBiz. Have a look at
https://fisheye6.atlassian.com/browse/~br=trunk/ofbiz/trunk/framework/base/src/main/java/org/apache/ofbiz/base/util/UtilValidate.java?r=1761200#to1193
and the preceding code.
Is there somewhere in OFBiz that should be using this validation, but isn't
currently?
