SR-119800 · Issue 177840

Security policy transaction mismatch error resolved

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

If security policies are enabled, logging out and then logging in prompts a password change. If the password was changed and then the page was refreshed, a transaction mismatch error occurred. This was caused by incomplete clearing of the password setting transaction, and the system has been updated to properly switch transactions.

Trojan horse protection auto-enabled

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

The authentication/trojanhorseprotection previously defaulted to NEVER, creating a security vulnerability. The trojanhorseprotection setting now defaults to external.

SR-124473 · Issue 186179

Added handling for unauthenticated asynchronous SOAP service

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

After implementing changes to work around an error with SOAP authentication, the unauthenticated asynchronous SOAP service generated an error and failed to complete. This was due to the changes to the authentication process omitting the asynchronous mode case when a SOAP service that intended to not use authentication ends up calling a sub-activity that requires authentication. This use case is now covered.

SR-126719 · Issue 177348

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.

SR-128463 · Issue 193907

Create KeyRing updated for split schema

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

If a command line script is configured (viz. keyringGen.sh) to encrypt user passwords for prconfig.xml databases using Keyring utility, a prconfig.xml could have three database entries but the keyring tool only prompted for two databases and did not allow encrypting password for the user for the third database. The prconfig.xml file requires very specific location information to run: to resolve this, the variables to hold schema name in case of split schema configuration have been added.

SR-D23239 · Issue 499591

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.

SR-D31734 · Issue 515657

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.

SR-D47685 · Issue 514647

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.
