Various Bid Modules: preventing custom aliases

andyblackwell commented 1 month ago

Type of issue

similar to #12047, the bid validation in these bid adapters prevents custom aliasing

33acrossBidAdapter: https://github.com/prebid/Prebid.js/blob/8.52.0/modules/33acrossBidAdapter.js#L76
sharethroughBidAdapter: https://github.com/prebid/Prebid.js/blob/8.52.0/modules/sharethroughBidAdapter.js#L21C49-L21C78

Description

bidders don't need to validate the bidder name in isBidRequestValid(), prebid handles that already, and when they do, it prevents being able to use custom aliases, rejecting bids as invalid when a custom alias is used

Steps to reproduce

use a custom alias for the bidders

Expected results

bid requests sent in the auction

Actual results

bids rejected as invalid due to unnecessary bidder name validation

Platform details

all prebid versions that I can tell

Other information

similar issue to #12047
