In game number 14058844 my opponent castled when there was a field attacked by my bishop between his king and rook.
Is there something i missed, thought this was not allowed? Game 14058844
It happens in the seventh set of moves.

as long as the king does not pass through an attacked square
it's ok

The king came to rest on C1. How did it pass B1?

"The rook may move through an attacked square, provided the king does not. (The only time this can happen is when castling queenside and the only such square is the one adjacent to the rook.)" -- Wikipedia
