Global obfuscation key initialized on first requestor call

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

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.

Signature map updated for fetching keys

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

MFA login worked with SAML 2.0 when the certificate was disabled but failed when the certificate was enabled in Auth Service. The error " "Signature algorithm is null" appeared. This has been resolved by updating the signature map to ignore case sensitivity while fetching keys.

RDA support added for Citrix XenApp

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

Robot Runtime was not working in a Citrix XenApp environment when using the JWT token generated by the D_pxRoboticJWTToken data page to identify the user. This has been resolved by updating the scope of the datapage D_pxRoboticJWTToken from node level to requestor, which will allow the user information in the JWT token to be passed to the routing service and support the use of RDA in Citrix environments.

Basic Access Control (BAC) now available in production level 2+

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

An enhancement has been added to enable the Basic Access Control (BAC) feature for production levels 2 or greater. This is a change from being available previously only in levels 4 and 5, and will facilitate diagnosing access control issues earlier in the development process.

INC-180594 · Issue 670954

Filtering added for DisableDormantOperators

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

When running the Disable Dormant Operators agent, many operators were seen which were dormant but not disabled. Investigation showed the activity was fetching all of the operators without filtering the deactivation state. This has been resolved by adding a filter condition in pzDisableDormantOperators to fetch only deactivate state users.

INC-182530 · Issue 695759

SAML datapages cleared before new authentication

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

If a previous user had not logged out or timed out when using SAML authentication, a second person using the same device/browser would end up in the first user's session after performing their own authentication. Investigation showed the second login D_SAMLAssertionDataPage was not getting refreshed with the current user login details; this has been resolved by explicitly deleting the SAML Datapages before processing a new login if the session has not timed out.

INC-182827 · Issue 691526

URL security updated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

Security has been updated for URL tampering defense and Rule Security Mode.

INC-184964 · Issue 705935

TextMask_Encrypted rule added for use with Oracle

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

When a property was being encrypted by propertyEncrypt access control policy and masked by propertyRead access control policy, it showed a "@@getMaskedValueOfText" error. This has been resolved with the addition of a new rule pxTextMask_Encrypted for Oracle product type which will remove extra spaces from the SOURCE string to handle ORACLE specific usecases.

INC-185251 · Issue 674905

Locking APIs updated to handle CDK key rotation

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

It was not possible to save cases for several hours following the CDK key rotation. This was traced to an exception that caused the system to attempt to acquire a lock on the CDK key instance, and normal save behavior would resume after the default sys lock time out period expired. This has been resolved by updating the system to use LockManager APIs to perform a database save with locks.

INC-185362 · Issue 668824

Keystore update properly revises the cache

Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6

A keystore updated with the latest certificate was not getting reflected in the runtime and the old certificate was getting picked. In a multi-node environment when the new JKS is uploaded in one node, the changes are expected to be communicated to other nodes so that the cache can be cleaned up. In this case, investigation showed that the keystore label was in uppercase and the cache entry was not correctly removed. This has been resolved by adding an update that will convert the cache key to lowercase and maintain uniformity to ensure proper cleanup.
