Outer door you mean like a typical exterior wall door (for when a sim goes outside)? Tried a couple of different doors (one that is transparent and one that is a different door).

Yes, that is what I meant. If you replace the double glass door (the light comes from there) with one that is solid the effect should go away. If not you can report that as a bug in the bug forum.

I did some testing on this, and the glitch does not occur unless the exposed room is an inner room, as in this build's configuration (it must be surrounded by a covered room (or rooms) on all 4 sides). For instance, if you change the structure like this, light does not flow through the door:
If you add rooms to make it into an inner courtyard again, the light shines through:

So in the default configuration, would this be considered a new glitch in the current patch? Prior to this patch I never experienced the lighting glitch (though I never noticed had it occurred in the past).

It could well be, but it's hard to say for sure @cthoward491. I never noticed it before, but I don't know when the last time I played with and/or built a structure with an inner courtyard was... It's on the list now though, so I'm sure the devs will figure out how/when it cropped up.
