Handling added for indexing items exceeding Kibana max size

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

Indexing cases was generating errors from Kibana indicating "Failed to index document: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document contains at least one immense term in field="_m_MailBody" (whose UTF8 encoding is longer than the max length 32766), all of which were skipped." To resolve this, if an embedded property exceeds the max length defined by Kibana, it will be truncated at 32k bytes in order to allow indexing to proceed.

Parameter logic updated for metrics activity counter

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

An error was causing the PushCDHMetrics agent to fail. This was traced to an undefined parameter in the activity which was used as a counter, and has been resolved by replacing it with a local variable of type integer. In addition, an agent has been added to support publishing the model metrics.

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.

INC-211426 · Issue 706061

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.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

Security updates have been made relating to rulesets using allow lists, checks for Java code injections, SAML-based SSO code, and supporting SFTP as part of the validation in the pxValidateURL rule.

INC-163791 · Issue 704028

Simplified default reference time calculations

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

After a job scheduler was configured to run at Start time = 21:00:00 for Time zone = Europe/London, the scheduler determined 20:00:00 as the next start time. This was due to the calculation for the next start time using the time zone offset calculation pattern for the date and time stored in System-Runtime-Context.pxCreateDateTime, which had difficulty with changes to the time zone definition implemented in the time between the given date and today (meaning the current time) such as daylight savings time. To resolve this, the default reference time from System Runtime Context will be 'now' instead of Date(0).

INC-184798 · Issue 703268

PRconfig added for JVM user/password

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

The setting Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.local.only=true has been added for use when JMX authentication is enabled by providing jmxuser/password through prconfig.

INC-184964 · Issue 705934

TextMask_Encrypted rule added for use with Oracle

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4

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.
