Disconnect button availability extended
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
A case was not refreshing when the disconnect button was selected while using the standard section for authorization grant type authentication. This was traced to a query executed to find a div with attribute pzInsHandle, but that attribute was not applicable in the user portal. To support this use, the query has been extended to be applicable for user portal (attribute data-ui-meta) and Dev Studio landing page.

Skip restored for browser request CSRF token
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
Many SECU0008 alerts were seen in the production logs. This was the result of a CSRF token check on requests without pyActivity or pyStream, and has been resolved by restoring a conditional skip of the check as those other browser requests do not contain a CSRF token.

SSLContext created using protocol from REST connector rule form
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
After upgrading to IBM websphere v9.0.5.6 or higher, API calls Like REST, Connect-HTTP etc were failing to connect to endpoints using TLSv1.2. Investigation showed that although the connector was configured to send TLSv1.2, the ClientHello handshake was triggered for TLSv1.3. Because the SSLContext was created with highest version supported by protocol in the WAS container, this has been resolved by modifying the code to create SSLContext based on the the protocol selected in the REST connector rule form. Additionally, please note that the Connect-HTTP connector has been deprecated and the Connect-REST capabilities in the platform should be used instead.

Check added for allowed editing with CSRF
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.5
After enabling CSRF, it was not possible to edit a data table used to define ACL rules due to security preventing the adding/editing of rows and user group entitlements. This has been resolved by using browser FingerPrint validation to check whether an activity is in a secured list and skipping validation for allowed activities.

Pega Keystore supported for hotfix signature verification
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
In order to support custom trust managers which require an alternate method for supplying the root certificate via a platform trust store, an enhancement has been added to allow Pega Keystore to be used as a hotfix verification source. Detailed information on this can be found in https://docs.pega.com/keeping-current-pega/87/verifying-hotfix-authenticity-using-pega-keystore
