Added fallback keyinfo handling
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When a SAML assertion response is received in the authentication activity, an error indicated the KeyInfo was missing in the signature. This was caused by a lack of redundancy in the keyinfo handling that caused an exception when keyinfo was not included in the SAML response. Support has now been added to check the certificate in the truststore where the certificate from IDP metadata would have been imported, and there is an added null check in the debug logs.

Enabled accessibility for validation errors in modal windows
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Validation error messages were not being read by the JAWS accessibility function automatically in modal windows. This was due to missing ARIA attributes, and these have been added to the error spans.

Corrected button label for JAWS
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
With JAWS accessibility active, when you navigate to a menu button labeled "Other Actions", JAWS says "Menu. To move through items press up or down arrow...O" instead of reading out the title of the button. This was caused by the button being used to show the menu, which added role="menu" to it, and this has been corrected in the button generation RUF.

Added schema qualification to BIX / DB2 extract rules
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When using a Business Intelligence Exchange (BIX) extract rule which included writing the manifest details to external database tables, running the extract rule generated errors for the insert into the pr_extract_summary and pr_extract_details tables. This issue existed both when running from the command line and from the User Interface (UI). This was traced to the extract code not schema qualifying the pr_extract_summary and pr_extract_details tables in the insert statements, so it is expecting those tables to be in the schema of the user who is defined in the Database rule. This has been corrected through code changes for DB2 external databases that includes currentSchema=YourSchemaName in the URL connection to the external database.

Resolved HTMLtoPDF font load error
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When using a Fonts directory during HTMLToPDF conversion, the StaticContent folder resolved to an incorrect properties file and generated an error that appeared to indicate the fonts had not correctly loaded even when they had indeed loaded. The error was traced to the function used to open the Static Content folder with the direct file handle, and this has been updated to resolve correctly.

Refresh When' behavior fixed for portal tabs
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When a 'Refresh When' was active on a portal tab, the system would become unresponsive while trying to refresh it. This was caused by an incorrect element call resulting in a JavaScript error and has been corrected.

Parse XML validation default set to "Never"
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In some cases, the parse XML rules function was not correctly mapping all of the input types. The root cause for the different failure modes seen was found to be that validation was set to "Always" by default, and the rule data did not reflect this until after a manual Save or Save-As. The default has now been set to "Never", and can be manually adjusted to "Always" or "When" as desired.
