Access Control Policy updated to handle NotEqual with valuelist
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When editing the Access Control Policy Condition rule in Designer Studio and setting condition to 'is not equal', comparing it to a list generated the error "function not found". The same configuration worked as expected for the 'is equal' condition. This has been resolved by updating policycondition to handle a not equal scenario combined with a valueList property.

Updated key handling for ProcessJWT
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
After configuring an authentication service which used the ProcessJWT activity to validate the token received, the error "Unable to process the Json Web Token " was seen. Analysis showed the error was caused by a duplicate Key Id in JWK Endpoint Response: the system removed keys after processing, and in the case of duplicate keys the system was throwing null pointer exception because the key had already been removed. To resolve this, the system has been updated to not remove the keys from the map as part of this process.

Cleanup added for staging directory
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Temporary files from imports and exports (from DevOps) were filling up the staging area disk space because there was no automatic process for cleaning up these local files. This has been resolved by adding an enhancement that will clear the directory on Engine Startup and any time ParUtils.setStagingDirectory gets called to initialize the staging directory.

SameSite cookie setting added for Mashup support in Google Chrome v80+
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
The Google Chrome browser version 80 and above now treats SameSite with a blank value as "Lax" by default, causing mashup scenarios to break. In order to compensate for this change, support has been added for setting SameSite=None in Cookie Settings; this value automatically includes the “secure” cookie flag, which enforces HTTPS for the Pega server and mashup. For mashups to work, SameSite should be set as None. Create a Dynamic system setting in the Pega-Engine RuleSet with the name “security/csrf/samesitecookieattributevalue” and the value "None" and restart the server. (The SameSite value "None" works only in secure HTTPS connections.) Note: The SameSite cookie may be set to None/Lax/Strict, based on the requirement. For cookie requirements other than mashup, it should be set as either Strict or Lax, depending upon your application.

Installer files updated with class loader conflict resolution assistance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When sending emails with attachments, errors were observed relating to a loader constraint violation indicating that when resolving interface method, the class loader of the current class and the class loader for the method's defining class had different Class objects for the type used in the signature. The resolution for this requires user configuration of the app server, and the following files for the install guide have been updated with the appropriate information:Deployment-guides-dita/install.ditamap Deployment-guides-dita/Content/Topics/app-server-config/creating-jdbc-driver-module-jboss-tsk.dita Deployment-guides-dita/Content/Topics/app-server-config/delegating-javax-activation-to-JRE-loader-tsk.dita

Added timeout handling for non-PRAuth servlets
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
After logging in via external authentication service (SAML Single Sign On) and setting up a timeout in the access group RuleForm, when the user performed any action and the server identified the request to be timed-out, it was expected that a SAML request would be sent from the browser to the external Authentication Server (referred as IDP) and the flow would proceed from there. This worked as expected for a non-AJAX request. To resolve this, handling has been added for timeout when using non-PRAuth authentication services.

SAML data pages restored after passivation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
If login used SAML SSO, resuming the session after passivation resulted in missing or empty data pages when using an SAP integration with Pega Cloud. This was traced to a security change that modified the D_SAMLAssertionDataPage and D_SamlSsoLoginInfo data pages as readonly, causing them to not be passivated under these conditions. To resolve this, the data pages have been made editable so they will be restored as expected. This change also resolves any difficulty with SAML logoff activities in conjunction with SAP and Pega Cloud.

prproductmigration build.gradle updated for new mime4j asset name
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
While running the getMigrationLog for ProductMigration script provided in the Pega 8.2.2 media files, errors appeared referencing "NoClassDefFoundErrors when running getLogs". This was caused by the referenced class not being found on the classpath: the version of the included jar did not include the class needed due to Praxiom's default version being updated to use a new version of mime4j that required an asset name change. To resolve this, the mime4j asset name in prproductmigration build.gradle has been updated to pick up the correct version of the dependency for Praxiom.

HTML entity handling added to URLObfuscation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
When URLObfuscation was enabled through the configuration settings, clicking on Operator -> Profile page generated an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundException. When obfuscation is used the decrypted string is parsed and the request map is populated, but HTML entities were not considered during this process. To resolve this, handling has been added for HTML entities and characters during obfuscation. Please note: URL Obfuscation is a legacy feature with many known limitations and it is no longer recommended that these settings be used.
