The updateCIDRresult function doesn't work when you have IP addresses in the "find common range" box that all belong to 2.x.x.x range
I realized I should've been more detailed with my bug report. Currently checkuser.js assumes that ranges 1.0.0.0/8 & 2.0.0.0/8 belong to IANA and should be ignored. This is problem because some parts of 2.0.0.0/8 range are actually not reserved addresses; e.g. 2.178.0.0 - 2.178.253.255 is owned by Iran's telecommunication company. More importantly, there are other ranges which are reserved too, and the JS is disregarding those. IMHO, the JS should NOT restrict any ranges, reserved or not. It's the user's responsibility to understand the nature of IP addresses; additionally, reserved addresses should never occur on CU log. As a result, I submitted Gerrit change #32922 which removes the lines of code from checkuser.js that restrict the use of this tool to certain ranges.
