IDAAS-core release notes

This section contains release notes for the IDAAS-core module of the OneWelcome Identity Platform.

We are releasing IDAAS-core on a 1-3 week basis. A release does not require downtime and occurs during European business hours.

The releases are backwards compatible. However, we extend the API contract (adding new fields to a JSON object). If breaking changes are required in the API, a new API version is created, and the old version is deprecated. You have six months to migrate to the new API version.

In the release notes, we mention new features and bug fixes. If anything is unclear, feel free to contact Thales Support.

Release date 2024-12-11

Features

  • We introduced a new feature that allows you to change the persona of an authenticated user for all applications in the session. By providing the prompt=select_account and an id_token_hint=[current id token] in the Authorization request, you can instruct the OpenID Provider to log out all applications in the session except the application that initiates the Authorization request.
  • We introduced two new public events: UserDeviceRegisteredEvent and UserDeviceDeregisteredEvent when a new mobile device is linked to a user.

Improvements

  • We now redirect the end-user back to the default redirect URI with an error response for error scenarios where we know the origin client, instead of showing an error page in IDAAS-core.

Bugs

  • We fixed an issue where the login_hint was not used for IDP selection when using the "Broker" IDP if there was another active session in the same browser.

Release date 2024-12-02

Improvements

  • We now always retrieve the user attributes from Tulip when the UDH with the origin client feature is enabled.

Release date 2024-11-26

Bugs

  • Resolved an issue in the Persona flow for the Tulip IDP where the calculated claims were not picked up.
  • Resolved an issue where some events contained an incorrect OAuth Client ID.

Release date 2024-11-13

Bugs

  • Resolved an issue with SAML SPs that caused an AUTHZ_REQUEST_TRANSACTION_TAMPERING error.

Release date 2024-11-07

Features

  • IDAAS Core now responds to all authentication requests based on the current session state in Access and only redirects to the upstream Identity Provider in case it does not have an active session.

Release date 2024-08-14

Features

  • We added configuration in the UI to add user attributes to the ID token without the need to implement a Customize Access Token Hook.

  • We added support for SAML IDP-initiated SSO. This can be turned on per SAML application and generates a unique link for each application.

Improvements

  • It is now possible to sync the last login date between the Mobile Identity and the DAAS Core apps, this requires a new integration Synchronize Last Login to be turned on in the Identity Provider configuration.

Release date 2024-07-18

Improvements

  • The Customize Access Token Hook now also has a function to block the authorization.

Release date 2024-07-12

Features

Improvements

  • The custom registration events now also contain the idp_id in the details of the event.
  • The algorithms listed in the Discovery Endpoint are now listed in capitals (compliant with RFC-7518).

Release date 2024-06-28

Features

  • We added an API to delete mobile app versions.

Release date 2024-06-26

Improvements

Release date 2024-04-25

Improvements

Bugs

  • The browser state cookie is now updated after the user session is terminated using the User Session API.

Release date 2024-04-10

Features

Both flows are deprecated and are no longer considered secure for most scenarios.

Release date 2024-02-19

Improvements

  • When using the OAuth Device Flow together with OAuth consent, an end-user needs to provide consent for every authentication.

Bugs

  • Fixed an issue where multiple waiting calls to external systems could impact the overall availability of the service.

Release date 2024-02-12

Bugs

  • We added the iat claim to Access Tokens.
  • We now omit sending the RequestedAuthnContext to an external SAML IDP if the Authentication context class reference is not specified in the SAML IDP configuration, before we defaulted to urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:ac:classes:PasswordProtectedTransport.

  • Added some missing translations for error messages.

Release date 2024-01-22

Features

Improvements

  • We improved the security of our session cookies by adding a __Host prefix to them.

We included both the legacy and the new secure cookies for existing customers to keep the existing sessions.

The legacy cookies can be disabled in the Access Admin, by going to Configuration → System → Cookies and turning off the Add fallback cookie option. This option can be safely switched once all users establish a new session with the updated Access Engine. Max session length can checked in the Access Admin (Configuration → System → Session → Maximum session length )

Bug Fix

Improvements

  • We improved our caching for the Discovery and JWKS endpoints so these endpoints can handle more load.

Release date 2023-12-11

Features

  • Implemented the new Push Messaging configuration for Android.
  • Certain high volume 'success' events have been excluded by default from being persisted to the database to improve performance.
    • These events can be configured via the Admin console. Please view our topic guide for additional information.
  • Added support for more signing algorithms for use with Private Key JWT (see token_endpoint_auth_signing_alg_values in the Discovery API).
  • Discovery API now accepts POST requests.

Improvement

  • Invalid Grant events now contain additional information for easier troubleshooting.

Bug Fix

  • Fixed an issue with webhooks when using client_credentials involving cache.

Release date 2023-11-22

Features

Improvements

  • We adjusted the communication resiliency properties for Access to better handle issues with the external services.

Bugs

  • The version of the backend for the mobile app config was fixed.
  • Standard ID Token claims are now filtered from the custom registration user object.
  • We ensured that the tenant context is always set when handling OneEx events.

Release date 2023-11-03

Features

  • We enabled Custom Registration scripts to return user attributes in the ID Token and UserInfo Endpoint response.
  • We have introduced a feature that allows for the removal of a user's Access Tokens and grants whenever they change their password. This enhancement ensures that a user's security and access control are maintained by revoking their existing access privileges and requiring them to reauthenticate with their new password.

Release date 2023-10-30

Features

  • We now support more acr values. These acr_values are also exposed in the Discovery Endpoint
  • We added configuration to configure the SSO Session on a tenant level. This allows customers to set the default length and the maximum length of an SSO session.
  • The user details cache (used for the ID Token and the userinfo endpoint) can now be cleared automatically if the connected IdP sends Events.

Improvements

  • Extended the token revocation events with a User ID.
  • Improved error logging in web hooks

Bugs

  • Ensure the acr value is not lost when a specific attribute mapping is configured for an IdP.
  • Removed some details from specific events.

Release date 2023-10-09

Features

  • We added a new configuration item to Web clients. Specifying the Refresh Token validity from when the token is issued is now possible. We also clarified that the old config referred to the max lifetime, calculated from when the first access token was issued. Now, both validities can be configured.
  • If an account gets blocked or deleted from an IdP of the type CIM, we now clear all active tokens and remove all registered devices.

Release date 2023-09-28

Features

  • The new Map assertion attributes feature for SAML IDPs, now also maps the attributes in the SAML assertion from the external IDP to claims in the UserInfo endpoint.

Release date 2023-09-27

Features

  • We added a new experimental feature to connect to a new IDP type: ID Broker. This is a new component that supports federated authentication towards external identity schemes.
  • We added a new Map assertion attributes feature for SAML IDPs. This feature enables mapping all attributes in the SAML assertion from the external IDP to claims in the ID Token. Via Attribute mapping, you can limit this mapping to only include specific claims. If you have enabled the User Info integration, the assertion attributes will be overwritten if they have the same name.

Improvements

  • We improved the mapping of "expected error responses" from OAuth/OIDC IdP types, e.g. the login_required error is now mapped to this event AUTHN REQUEST LOGIN REQUIRED and no longer to IDP OAUTH RECEIVED ERROR.
  • We improved our production roll-out process.
  • We now also support a . character in the name of a scope.

Bugs

  • The length was limited to 20 characters when managing scopes via the API. We now aligned this to 255, which was already possible via the UI.
  • We now support the new urn:onewelcome:oauth2:grant_type:stateless_authentication grant during the registration of a Mobile device.

Release date 2023-09-13

Improvements

  • Added private_key_jwt as token_endpoint_auth_methods_supported in the Discovery URL.
  • Added a new event type, TOKEN REQUEST EXPIRED REFRESH TOKEN, which replaces the TOKEN REQUEST INVALID REFRESH TOKEN event when a refresh token is expired.
  • Added a new event type, TOKEN REQUEST FINGER PRINT EXPIRED REFRESH TOKEN, which replaces the TOKEN REQUEST FINGER PRINT INVALID REFRESH TOKEN event when a refresh token is expired.
  • We started logging the length of a refresh token in the details of the TOKEN REQUEST INVALID REFRESH TOKEN event.

Release date 2023-09-08

Improvements

  • We added a new attribute: baseUrl to the modelmap of the endsession-templates.

Bugs

  • Resolved an issue where the auth_time was not updated after re-authentication based on the max_age parameter.

Release date 2023-09-05

Bugs

  • Resolved an issue where clearing caches via the Admin UI did not work.
  • Resolved an issue where message keys were always cleared after 5 minutes. The TTL now follows the configured duration for static resources.

Release date 2023-08-31

Features

Improvements

  • The Respond to silent authentication requests based on current session state feature now redirects to the upstream IDP in case additional scopes are requested, a specific acr_value is requested, or when max_age indicates that the auth_time needs to be refreshed.

Bugs

  • Resolved an issue where a Logout request failed if the id_token_hint contained a token with multiple audiences.

Release date 2023-08-07

Features

  • We have optimized how we handle our Single sign-on (SSO) experience when multiple clients use the same IdP. We decided to use the existing OneWelcome session when new clients initiate an authentication request with prompt=none and the Respond to silent authentication requests based on current session state feature is enabled for that client. Before, the request was forwarded to the configured IdP for that web client.

Release date 2023-08-03

Improvements

  • We added an additional setting for the App2Web integration for the Tulip type idp that allows setting the "Used authentication methods". This is required for setups where 2FA is required on the Tulip side.

Release date 2023-08-02

Bugs

  • We resolved another bug in the SLO request towards a Tulip type idp.

Release date 2023-07-27

Features

Bugs

  • We resolved a bug in the SLO request towards a Tulip type idp.
  • We resolved a bug where missing templates uploaded via self-styling caused the app the fail.
  • A PATCH call the the Web Client API resulted in the session_based_silent_auth value to be overwritten with false.

Release date 2023-07-14

Improvements

  • We simplified the App2Web integration between Access and Tulip.

Release date 2023-07-11

Features

  • We extended the ConfigAPI with the option to create IDPs of the type Tulip and OAuth.

Improvements

  • We introduced caching for Tulip's JWKS endpoint, so the certificates are no longer fetched during every authentication.

Bugs

  • Fixed a bug that caused calls to the ConfigAPI to fail when the Authenication Method was set to PrivateKeyJWT.

Release date: 2023-06-30

Bugs

  • We fixed the support for key rotation for clients authenticating with PrivateKeyJWT.

Release date: 2023-06-29

Improvements

  • We added the sub claim to the Token Introspection response for Client Credentials grants to become compliant with RFC7523.

Release date 2023-06-05

Improvements

  • We now filter disabled external IDPs when the Mobile SDK requests the client configuration.

Release date 2023-06-02

Improvements

  • We now allow a scope name to be 255 characters.
  • We introduced a new configuration to set the minimum time frame for allowing multiple Access Tokens for a given user and client to coexist.

Release date 2023-05-30

Features

  • Added support for privateKeyJWT client authentication for the Tulip type IDP.
  • Added support for the App2Web feature for the Tulip type IDP.

Release date 2023-05-18

Improvements

  • We now also support colons : in the name of scopes.

Release date 2023-05-10

Improvements

  • We now allow HEAD requests to the authorization URL.

Bugs

  • Fixed a bug where some cache values did not expire on time.

Release date 2023-05-05

Bugs

  • Fixed an issue where a request to a SAML IDP timed-out before the web session expired. This can happen when users have to go through an registration process at the IDP.

Release date 2023-05-03

Features

  • Performance improvements
  • Added experimental support for a new way to connect to the Tulip type of IDP.

Improvements

  • Removed support for RSA1_5 and RSA_OAEP as encryption algrithms.

Release date 2023-04-25

Bugs

  • Fixed a bug that prevented updating the SAML SP configuration.

Release date 2023-04-18

Release date: 2023-02-08

Bugs

  • Fixed an issue where requests towards a configured SAML IDP (e.g. CIM) failed when a single user-agent initiated multiple authentication requests for the same client.

Release date: 2023-02-06

Features

Improvements

  • For the IDP type Tulip, we now send all the requested scopes (default, optional, and the scopes in the IDP config) to the IDP in the authentication request.
  • We improved the performance of Silent authentication requests (prompt=none) towards an IDP of the type Tulip.

Release date: 2023-01-24

Features

  • The end-user is now redirected to a whitelisted post-logout-url after a OIDC logout request, even when the provided ID token is recently expired or there is no active session for that client.

Bugs

Release date: 2023-01-18

Improvements

  • For Custom registration events, we now log the Client id to make it easier to correlate the events to a client or mobile device.

Release date: 2023-01-11

Features

  • We introduced a new Tulip Identity Provider Type.

Release date: 2022-12-15

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a bug where the introspection endpoint returned a rpSet claim instead of user attributes.
  • We now also remove the Mobile push message capabilities for users that remove their last mobile device.

Release date: 2022-12-01

Features

  • Next to an instance in the EU, we also released an instance in the US.

Release date: 2022-11-30

Improvements

  • We improved the performance and stability of the application.

Release date: 2022-11-11

Release date: 2022-10-11

Features

  • Added an API to delete all tokens for a specific user per type.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed an issue where token introspection showed claims with the value null. These are now hidden.

Release date: 2022-08-29

Features

  • Support for custom registration for Web clients.

Improvements

  • Reduced the number of calls to our caching database for templates.

Release date: 2022-08-16

Improvements

  • We introduced a v2 of the token introspection endpoint to comply with RFP7662 for the exp attribute.
  • We now make a SAML SLO request succeed even without a session, based on SpNameQualifier in the SAML metadata.

Release date: 2022-07-06

Improvement

  • Removed support for the deprecated algorithms RSA1_5 and RSA_OAEP.
  • The generated Server Public Key is now visible as text on the mobile app's configuration page.

Improvement

  • Fixed an issue that caused exceptions when making calls to our caching database.

Release date: 2022-06-29

Features

Release date: 2022-06-09

Features

  • In the authentication response, we now indicate which external IDP was used by the end-user to authenticate. E.g. when a user uses Digid, we fill the acr with urn:com:onegini:saml:idp-alias:digid.

Improvement

  • It's now impossible to configure an API based custom authenticator with the PCKE grant type.

Bug fixes

  • We aligned the exp value in our token introspection endpoint with the RFC 7662. It now is an integer timestamp, measured in the number of seconds since January 1 1970 UTC. To use this new value, please switch to the v2 of our token introspection endpoint.

Release date: 2021-09-14

Features

  • Added the ability to delete access and refresh tokens when using the End-session endpoint for OpenID Connect. This is enabled by default for clients with the authentication method PKCE. Refer to the
    OpenID Connect configuration for more information
  • Added the token revocation endpoint to the OpenID Connect discovery endpoint.
  • Improved the integrity check for mobile apps. This improved integrity check is required for new mobile apps introduced to the Google Play Store after August 1st, 2021. The existing apps, both running on Android and iOS, will continue to work without any changes. Still, it is recommended to plan an update of the OneWelcome SDK and use the improved integrity check.

Bug fixes

  • The OpenID End-session endpoint did not properly handle encoded parameters when it was called via HTTP POST. This prevented users from being redirected back to the website after logout. This has been fixed.
  • Several endpoints for Mobile Authentication returned responses in a different format than documented. These responses have been fixed.

Release date: 2021-05-10

Features

  • It is now possible to configure multiple redirect URLs for mobile apps. This makes it possible to change the app scheme of the mobile app in a new version while the existing app installations use the old app scheme.
  • Relying Parties (RP) can resolve user attributes from Access by calling the User Info endpoint or by requesting an ID Token. Both means are defined by OpenID Connect (OIDC) standard. The returned set of identity related claims couldn't be modified, extended or filtered other than by using scopes. With the new User Details Customization Web Hook serves these purposes.
  • When the user device domain state changes, Access will publish a corresponding event to the event bus notifying all interested parties about the change. Device domain state changes are: a new user device registration, deregistration, user logging in with the device, or mobile authentication enrollment changes.
  • The process of registering a new mobile application requires both parties, the device, and the server, to have their time/date settings set correctly. Some users are explicitly modifying their time which prevents them from successfully finishing the onboarding process. To improve the user experience Access will handle such situations more gracefully by detecting clock skew and informing the client about the root cause of the rejection.

Improvement

  • When Access failed to successfully send a PUSH notification via Apple Push Notification Service (APNS), it returned a generic error to the client. To help diagnose the root cause of the issue, Access will log more detailed information about why the notification got rejected in the corresponding event.

Bug fixes

  • The mobile applications that were using the Custom Registration feature had to send additional request in order to obtain an ID Token. This will no longer be required as the ID Token will be returned to the client along with the Access Token when configured.
  • Users who are either members of many Delegated Administration for Business Partners (DABP) groups or are having many DABP policies assigned, could experience issues when logging out from DABP or OneWelcome Console applications. The logout request in such scenarios will no longer be rejected.

Release date: 2021-03-09

  • First official release of the access components.
