UPDATE IMPACT FOR PEGA CALL
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
Log4j-1.2.14.jar and Log4j-1.2.17.jar have been removed to address the security concerns with these versions, and logger jars have been upgraded to 12.7.2 version (from 12.7.1 version) to make Pega Call compatible. This change will impact Pega Call customer environments due to Avaya or Genesys, which are part of Pega Call, having an internal dependency on Log4j1.x version jars. As a result, the SDK logging for Avaya or Genesys will not be available in the 8.7.3 release unless the Log4j-1.x jar files are reimported locally.

Null value handling added for CBU
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
After update, changes made to the Operator record were not reflected and the Actions menu in Operator record did not show all available actions after the Operator was saved. This has been resolved by adding handling for null values passed as String for arguments from cbu.xml for the PegaCBU utility.

Rest connector passes RequestAttachmentPage to child requestor
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
While invoking the Rest Connect from a data page, the error "InboundMappingException: Exception occurred while mapping incoming response" was generated. Requests with "Content-type:multipart/form-data" require "pyRequestAttachmentPage" or "pyResponseAttachmentPage" to be populated with correct values. When Rest-Connector was executed in parallel, those pages were not copied to the child requestor and the rest call executed from the child requestor did not have correct header and body. To resolve this, MethodConnect.java has been updated to correctly pass pyRequestAttachmentPage to the child requestor.

Cleaned up outdated prprivcommon class references
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
After update, an exception was generated related to FirstUseAssembler. This was a missed use case for the WriteEFormToFile activity from previous work which restricted loading classes from prprivcommon.jar, and has been resolved by removing references to the following classes which were made inaccessible by the changes to prprivcommon: com.pega.pegarules.storage.FileStorageManager com.pega.pegarules.storage.fs.resadaptor.RAFile com.pega.pegarules.storage.fs.resadaptor.OutputStreamWrapper

Case Archival hierarchy updated for multiple occurrences of a child case
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
Case Archival did not correctly discover hierarchy when child case appeared multiple times in the hierarchy. This was due to the CaseAssociationsProvider class having a check to skip performing the discovery when the case type had already been processed, and has been resolved by updating the handling for this scenario.
