Property check handling updated for Ajax requestor
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.8
SECU0001 alerts were seen when submitting a case in the interaction portal. Logging indicated the errors were related to the 'pxRequestor.pyLatitude' and 'pxRequestor.pyLongitude' properties which are included in an Ajax request when they exist in the DOM and the 'pyGeolocationTrackingIsEnabled' when rule is true. The error was traced to a condition where a new thread request results in an unexpected property check that encounters a clipboard which doesn't have any pages created for that thread. To resolve this, the 'pxRequestor.pyLatitude' and 'pxRequestor.pyLongitude' properties have been added to an allow list to handle the unexpected properties check.

PRTraceServlet security check added
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.8
Modifying the Pega application URL with PRTraceServlet displayed multiple user credentials and session information. This has been corrected with the addition of a privilege check in GetConnectionListCommand before allowing the connections list to be fetched.

Global obfuscation key initialized on first requestor call
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When using URLEncryption = true and SubmitObfuscatedURL = optional, attempting to export an Excel spreadsheet resulted in the error "Invalid character found in the request target". This was traced to the variable pega.d.globalobfuscateKey having a null value which was then converted to a byte array and decoded, generating improper characters in the URL. After a browser refresh, the correct value was set in pega.d.globalobfuscateKey and the export worked as expected. To resolve this, an update has been made to initialize the key on the very first call in PRRequestorImpl when the global obfuscation key is determined to be NULL instead of initializing the global obfuscation key by on-demand basis from HTTPAPI.

Added security tokens to Worklist assignment error wizard
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
After enabling CSRF, moving to 'Configure -> Case Management -> Tools -> Work Admin -> Worklist assignment errors' and then selecting a record and clicking on 'Delete' resulted in a '403 Forbidden' error. This has been resolved by adding CSRF and fingerprint tokens as part of the form data.

UI and code changes to support Client Assertion in Open ID Connect
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
In order to support private_key_jwt, an enhancement has been added which will pass the “Client ID” and “Client assertion” (in the form of a signed JWT) as part of the authorization code grant flow for an IDP-initiated SSO. The Authorization Server will then authenticate Pega (the client) to verify the signature and payload of assertion by retrieving the public key via Pega’s JWKS endpoint.
