Identity Platform Change Log

IDS 2024.1

See IDS 2023.2 Release notes.

IDS 2023.2

See IDS 2023.2 Release notes

SSO 9.4.1

Improvements

  • A number of improvements within the Mobile PKI / MPKI service implementation were improved to conform with updated use cases and logging requirements specified by Traficom.

  • SSO’s Tomcat was updated to 9.0.87

SSO 9.4.0

New Features

  • IDS-4438 - We have updated the Swedish BankID authentication implementation to include BankID Web service API v6.0. This is experienced by end-users as the animated QR codes when authenticating sessions or payments on the web (via two-device or mobile phone scanning of the animated QR code).

Improvements

  • IDS-4108 - We have optimised the codebase, deprecating "tokeninfo_endpoint" from /uas/oauth2/metadata.json. Please use the more general "introspection_endpoint" instead.

  • IDS-4545 - We have verified the ability of Identity Platform to run on Red Hat Linux 9 compatible platforms.

  • IDS-4493 - We have improved SSO’s CORS handling process by allowing browser application to make calls to the /introspection and /userinfo endpoints. Please review Restricting allowed origins

Corrections

  • IDS-3174 - There was a known issue within common-ubiutil that returned an unescaped value where an escaped value is expected. This was identified during a misconfiguration and has not been reported to impact any operational environments. This error has been corrected and will no longer occur.

CustomerID 6.4.1

Improvements

  • IDS-4863 - Removed a coding error present when using SSO’s TOTP along with CustomerID’s ability to move users between Organisations. Prior to this patch, moving a user would result in errors and impact both LDAP and PostgreSQL.

CustomerID 6.4.0

New Features

Improvements

  • IDS-3681 - It was possible to receive too many notifications due to the incorrect configuration of renotify.roleinvitation. Product documentation improvements have been made to better describe the use cases of Expiration periods - CustomerID and Reminder periods - CustomerID.

  • IDS-3826 - It was possible to misconfigure PostgreSQL which would result in continuous invitations being sent out by CustomerID. The invitation worker code has been updated to ensure this no longer happens. 

  • Under the hood improvements to CustomerID

Corrections

IDS 2023.2

SSO 9.3.1

Corrections

  • IDS-4540 - We have observed and corrected intermittent authentication errors for Customers attempting authentications with a legacy Microsoft integration (SignIn with SAML). These intermittent authentication errors were due to the combination of cache performance improvements that we implemented and Microsoft allowing the use of non-unique entityIDs in their legacy SignIn with SAML service.

  • IDS-4571 - We have corrected the issue with mapping Remote Identities (also called ubiloginAuthMapping) to Ubilogin Directory identities when the same Remote Identity is used in two or more Authentication Mappings. If this lesser-used historical feature is used in your environment, please visit Enabling UsernameUserMappingIdentityFactory.

SSO 9.3.0

New Features

  • IDS-1315 - Implementation of the OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Grant authentication method into SSO.

Improvements

  • IDS-4013 - We have allowed the Health of the Accounting to be checked without authenticaion.

  • IDS-4140 - We have made an improvement to SSO’s CleanupManager to ensure that it will continue to clean up sessions even if there are connectivity issues between SSO and LDAP. Environments that have long uptime could eventually run out of memory due to CleanupManager failing silently.

  • IDS-4232 - We have observed and corrected SSO consuming increased amounts of memory during testing. This ticket corrects SSO ExpiringMessageTracker, which was found to leak memory causing issues for very large environments or environments with very long uptime.

Corrections

  • IDS-2089 - There was a known issue where shutting down Ubisecure Accounting service on a windows server will show errors within the ids-accounting.log. This issue has been resolved.

CustomerID 6.3.0

New Features

  • None implemented for this release.

Improvements

  • IDS-3771 - We have suppressed the default help files found in CustomerID UI. These help files have been fully replaced by the Developer Portal. It is possible to return the help link icon to your environment, please see the following documentation if you use the help link icon within your environment. See: Custom CSS styling - CustomerID and Help files - CustomerID.

Corrections

  • IDS-2791 - We have observed and corrected an error where a user who cancels their CustomerID registration, without completing the process, will result in a SSO session remaining open. As a security improvement, the default setting has been changed for CusotmerID version 6.2.1 and later. Please see: CustomerID registration.N.logout.when.cancel. Self-registration workflow configuration - CustomerID | Self registrationworkflowconfiguration CustomerID registration.N.logout.when.ca...

  • IDS-4034 - There was a known issue when using the CustomerID user interface to delete user custom attributes that results in a data conflict between the two datastores used for the Identity Platform. Manual correction of LDAP is required. This known issue has been corrected as of CID 6.2.1.

  • IDS-4221 - Changing organizations friendlyName with REST API PUT call results in loosing role membership issue is now resolved.

  • IDS-3483 - There was a known issue with the GET113 List Organization's Users API call. When adding parameter ?status=Enabled the call returned Internal error. This issue has been resolved, no internal errors are experienced when using this API. 

  • IDS-3698 - There was a known issue when rejecting a user registration that didn't remove the approval request from the CustomerID database. This was resolved in CID 6.2.1 and is part of this CID 6.3 release.

  • IDS-3727 - There was a known issue with email validator in regards to case-sensitive emails. For example user@email.com and User@email.com were treated as different emails. This error has been corrected in CID 6.2.1 and is part of the CID 6.3 release.

If the application and server timeout is separate, the application specific expiration time will take the server timeout + application timeout as the id_token expiration time

  • IDS-3767 - There was a known issue with Unregistered SMS or SMTP method used as second factor. If the method is not allowed for the intended group (not allowed for any group) or the configuration is left in a half configured state, then SSO shows ERROR 500 and a stack trace to the user

  • IDS-3863 - There was a redirection vulnerability within the password-reset tool that permitted open domain, any URL, to be used as potential redirection. While there is no known instance of use of this deviation, we have resolved this by adding the ability to define allowed hostnames in returnurls.

  • IDS-3871 - There was a redirection vulnerability within the password-reset tool that permitted cross site scripting to be post-pended to urls and used as potential redirection. While there is no known instance of use of this deviation, we have resolved this by adding the ability to define allowed hostnames in returnurls.

  • IDS-1832 - There was a known issue where editing an existing authorisation policy (example case added an attribute) resulted in the alteration of ubiloginNameValue. This was corrected in other work found within SSO 8.6 and no longer impacts any supported version of SSO.

  • IDS-1039 - SSO UI now shows "User account is locked" for OTP List and TOTP method after a user has tried to login with invalid code 5 times (or the amount configured in login attempts). Previously the user was shown the message after they tried to login on the 6th time after the method had already been locked

  • IDS-1652 - Message shown to user that have a mismatch of password and confirmation during password change now states a clearer reason for error "Make sure the passwords match. Please try again". Previously the message stated "The new credentials were not accepted" which did not point towards the reason for not being accepted

  • IDS-3176 - SSO UI now shows "User account is locked" for Unregistered SMTP OTP and Unregistered SMS OTP method after a user has tried to login with invalid code 5 times (or the amount configured in login attempts).

Ubisecure CustomerID 5.9.1 (30/05/2022)

Corrections

  • IDS-3674 - A deviation was observed within CustomerID 5.9.0 where metadata.xml polling spawned a new polling bean for each update query. In very large deployments, this creates environment overload. This CustomerID 5.9.1 patch release fully resolves the observed polling loading issue.

    • When updating to this CID 5.9.1 patch, administrators should ensure that the SSO instance has been stopped, apply the patch and then restart SSO

CustomerID 5.9.0 (16/12/2021)

New Features

  • IDS-2235 - Role invitation expiration email is now sent to invited user. The Administrator that invited user to the role also now gets notified if the user approved the invitation to the new role. Previously if the role invitation was done through REST API the user was not informed that the invitation had expired and the Administrator was not informed when the user approved the invitation. 

  • IDS-3153 - Custom attributes can now be emptied using REST API 2.1 (PUT103) Update User. Previously the API call did not remove the custom attribute from LDAP directory

  • IDS-2649 - Custom attribute can now be updated and emptied using REST API 1.0 (MOD004b) Update User. Previously the API call did not update nor remove the custom attribute from LDAP directory

  • IDS-2652 - Clearing username field in CustomerID UI no longer shows an internal error to the user. It is strongly recommended to use validation.json configuration for this field to set it as required if it is used as login field. See information about General properties - CustomerID and Validation configuration - CustomerID

  • IDS-3032 - Trailing space for registration name configuration in eidm2.properties no longer breaks the registration workflow. Previously the workflow was invalid. It is still recommended to not include any trailing spaces in CustomerID configuration files

  • IDS-1670 - Step-up method usability has been improved to not show any selection between step-up methods if there is only one configured for the application. For example, if only TOTP method is available as 2FA method in application, the user no longer needs to click "totp.1" button after signing in with password, but is immediately asked for TOTP code

  • IDS-2160 - Improved performance when generating and downloading reports from the Accounting Service. In our testing we have noted substantially decreased download times observable in larger datasets

  • IDS-2794 - Updated unix.config/win32.config file to include sso-api.uuid, totp.uuid and accounting.client.uuid to preserve the client IDs during upgrade of your system. Info about this can be found from Preserve essential configuration settings in upgrade

    OpenID Connect Core 1.0

  • IDS-3061 - New compatibility flag was introduced to resolve backwards incompatibility with OTP printout and TOTP secrets in the case that the users are stored in SQL database. If this is the case LegacyUserCredentialsTable needs to be added to the method for the users to keep using their set secrets.

CustomerID 5.8.0 (21/06/2021)

New Features

  • IDS-2770 - CustomerID REST API 2.1 has been updated with "PUT117 Reinvite User" (the endpoint was later renamed to "PUT123 Reinvite User" in the documentation). This allows an Administrator send a new email to a user with status "Waiting for registration". This might be useful if the user that is waiting to register has lost their invitation email or if their email address was invalid an Administrator can update the email and reinvite the user without having to start the process from scratch. Please find more information about this API call in REST API 2.1 - CustomerID

Improvements

  • IDS-2851 - policy.password.history = N configuration in SSO for CustomerID password method (password.2) now works as expected. If N is set to be 3, the user is unable to update their password to their current one or to the 2 previous ones
