Custom Authentication Suddenly Stopped Working

A legacy project has stopped authenticating properly through Photon Real-time. The code hasn't changed in over a year.

Photon reports the usual cryptic error:
"Custom Authentication failed (either due to user-input or configuration or AuthParameter string format)"

Preliminary testing shows that manually building the url query for the user in question returns the expected data:
{'ResultCode': 1, 'UserId': '1'}

Photon version is 1.61

Has Photon stopped supporting legacy versions of their API?

Is there some other possible configuration error?
