Bug Fixes

Following are the fixes available.

Version 10.16.2 (January 2023)

Following are the fixes available with this patch.

Customer defects

• When the user tries to download all the files attached to a record, the platform doesn't include some of the unique files and duplicate files while downloading.

• SI#483178 - An error [object Object] gets displayed for external lookup fields when the user tries to create a record.

• SI#484253 - With the upgrade to AgileApps version 10.13.25, the user saw the errors displayed in certain formula fields.

• SI#484859 - The Configuration page shows empty for the Portuguese language.

• SI#486691 - The Timer Rule created on a Record doesn't trigger and thereby the user doesn't receive the mail.

• SI#474222 - The Timer Rule doesn't trigger when the user tries to schedule it greater than nine months in the Date field.

• SI#483945 - The Process Model Editor throws an 'Uncaught DOMException: An invalid or illegal string was specified' error on the development console of the browser when the user includes special characters or XML-specific characters in the name of the following process blocks:
  • User Task
  • Executable Rule Set
  • Call Process
  • Web Service

• The description in the Notes section on the side panel gets retained even after submitting it. Also if the user adds some text in the Notes editor and switches between tabs without submitting it, the unsaved notes don't get retained.

• SI#488743 - The user is unable to delete or remove user-specific or company-specific information from the 'User Profile' section.

Internal defects

• Under the Configuration > Data Management > Import Data > Importing Data page, the user is able to select non-CSV files for uploading after the Target Object is selected.

• When the user selects a language in the 'Available Language Settings' section of the 'Update Company Information' page and performs the same operation by adding some more languages, the previously added languages are displayed repetitively in the 'Language' textbox.

• The Scheduled Rule doesn't get created in the Portuguese language.

• For every new tenant of the AgileApps platform, under the Policy Settings section of the Update Password Policy page, the default 'Inactive Session timeout' is set to 'Never' which should not be the case as it leads to causing security issues.

• Email2Case feature doesn't work when the user configures OAuth in the Cloud Cluster environment.

• There is no option for the user to delete or remove the profile photo uploaded in the 'User Profile' section of the AgileApps platform.

• On the 'Dashboard' > 'Add Widget' window, when the user doesn't provide the input for the required fields, the error message is displayed twice as an inline message and on the top of the window.

• On the 'New Related Information' page, under the 'Related Information' section, without providing the linking field between the two objects, the related information gets saved successfully.

• The "isForceChangePassword" flag is set to false for an account with an expired password in the subsequent REST API login requests.

• The hours logged in a Case are currently allowed to be negative which isn't correct as the time spent on a particular Case cannot be negative.

• There is no proper error message displayed while saving an empty process.

Security defects

• The current third-party component Jackson Databind version 2.13.3 used is vulnerable. It is recommended for the user to upgrade to a safer version 2.14.0 to avoid vulnerabilities.

• The current X-XSS-Protection header (X-XSS Protection: 1; mode=block) is deprecated and using the same can introduce additional security issues on the client side.

It is recommended for the user to set the X-XSS-Protection header value as 0 (X-XSS Protection: 0) to disable the XSS Auditor and not allow it to take the default behavior of the browser handling the response.

• SI#488924 - The current third-party component fluent-hc jar version 4.2.3 used is vulnerable. It has been upgraded to a safer version 4.5.14.

Version 10.16.1 (October 2022)

Following is the fix available with this patch.

• Integration Server does not start after installing AgileApps.
