Skip restored for browser request CSRF token
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
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 8.6.1
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.

LookUpList correctly executes during SSO login with model operator
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
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 update 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.

Enhancement added for tenant-level authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
In a multi-tenant PDC with a few tenants that utilize their own custom SSO, a pre-authentication activity inside a tenant that should block community access was also affecting tenants that did not have that pre-auth activity set. This was a missed use case and has been resolved by adding a tenantId hash in SchemePRAuth.makeUniqueSchemeName() to create the authServiceName.

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.
