Changelog

Changes in 6.12.0

Jul 20, 2023 13:00 CEST

OIDC signed jwt userinfo, API token security and CORS allowlist URLs

Features

  • global settings Allow AJAX calls from allowlisted URLs

  • oidc Added support for signed JWT responses from the UserInfo endpoint. Only RSA-based algorithms (RS256, RS384, RS512) are supported.

Improvements

  • api tokens Previously API Tokens lead to a brute force attack vector, since a successful API token authentication reset the CAPTCHA lock for passwords. Security improvement: API Tokens are now completely independent of CAPTCHA lock, which was previously reset so API tokens could work even though the user had a captcha. The CAPTCHA lock / failed login attempts count is now maintained even when a successful API Token login happens.

  • kerberos Fix issue that didn’t trigger fallback instant redirect federated login when the user has been exempted from logging in using their valid Kerberos ticket

  • Dependency updates of maven and npm packages
