Support added for multi-operator SAML logins
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
When a SAML user logged in by Single Sign-On (SAML), the system processed the login to portal as a different operator if there was a function on the Attribute field under Operator identification in the SAML authentication service. In this scenario, using an expression for operator provisioning did not work because all SAML login sessions resolved to same first operator due to parseAndEvaluateExpression() in ExpressionHelper.java ignoring new expression arguments if the expression page already existed. To support the use of multiple operator logins in this format, the system has been updated to clone a new expression page for every session and update it with the correct expression arguments.

XSS protection added for parameter page properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
An XSS vulnerability was seen with the Edge browser when run on visibility on client check was enabled with dynamic layouts and some properties were accessed from parameter page. Because run on visibility on client check is not required in this scenario, is has been removed and the values will be accessed from the server instead.

Cookie logging restored
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
As part of security updates, Cookies were restricted from being logged. However, this caused some business use cases such as a custom function call to obtain the list of cookies that are present in the application to stop working. To resolve this, the cookie logging restriction has been reverted.

Enhancement added for tenant-level authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
In a multi-tenant PDC with a few tenants that utilize their own custom SSO, a pre-authentication activity inside a tenant that should block community access was also affecting tenants that did not have that pre-auth activity set. This was a missed use case and has been resolved by adding a tenantId hash in SchemePRAuth.makeUniqueSchemeName() to create the authServiceName.

LookUpList correctly executes during SSO login with model operator
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After configuring SSO to create operators on fly using a model operator, a new user logging in for the very first time had their operator ID created using the model operator, but after update new users logging in to the system received the error "Only authenticated client may start this activity: RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY @BASECLASS LOOKUPLIST". This was due to the methods used for additional security on the activity @baseclass LookUpList which allows it to only be run by authenticated users, and has been resolved

Disconnect button availability extended
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
A case was not refreshing when the disconnect button was selected while using the standard section for authorization grant type authentication. This was traced to a query executed to find a div with attribute pzInsHandle, but that attribute was not applicable in the user portal. To support this use, the query has been extended to be applicable for user portal (attribute data-ui-meta) and Dev Studio landing page.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1
After logging in from SSO, closing the Pega window and opening it again resulted in the error "Unable to process the SAML WebSSO request : Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint. Cannot insert duplicate key in object." This has been resolved by updating the session index handling and adding a catch for the duplicate key exception.
