LookUpList correctly executes during SSO login with model operator
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After configuring SSO to create operators on fly using a model operator, a new user logging in for the very first time had their operator ID created using the model operator, but after upgrade new users logging in to the system received the error "Only authenticated client may start this activity: RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY @BASECLASS LOOKUPLIST". This was due to the methods used for additional security on the activity @baseclass LookUpList which allows it to only be run by authenticated users, and has been resolved.

Improved Agile Studio passivation recovery
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When an Agile Studio session was passivated, the error "SECU0008 : CSRF Detected and Blocked" was seen. Reactivating the session resulted in a blank page. This was traced to the clearing of requestor level registrations added for that particular thread, and has been resolved by adding a new flag to identify if a thread is passivated along with the necessary structure for the conditionalized clearing of requestor level registrations based on this flag.

URL validation updated to handle custom token endpoints
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
While saving an authentication profile with OAuth details, validation was failing for a valid URL given in the access token endpoint and revoke token endpoint fields. This was traced to the use of the Apache URL validator, which considered some domains to be invalid. To resolve this, the urlvalidator constructor has been updated to include a custom RegexValidator for access token and refresh token URLs.

Disconnect button availability extended
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
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.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After logging in from SSO, closing the Pega window and opening it again resulted in the error "Unable to process the SAML WebSSO request : Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint. Cannot insert duplicate key in object." This has been resolved by updating the session index handling and adding a catch for the duplicate key exception.

Encryption key handling updated for update activities
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The platform update activity generated the message "FATAL ERROR: Found exception running import: Unable to import file because the security token included in the request is invalid." Investigation traced this to the generation of the CDK occurring within a commit, which completed the transaction early. This has been resolved by updating the handling for the CDK key during BLOB encryption call.

Skip restored for browser request CSRF token
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
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.
