See Airlock 2FA Settings plugin – global shared Airlock 2FA configuration for further information.

New

AI-17092

IAM now supports Futurae's bypass mode in Airlock 2FA plugins. It bypasses all Airlock 2FA checks for users with bypass enabled in the Futurae admin portal. The feature is primarily used for automating tests.

CAUTION: Use this feature with caution, as it disables Airlock 2FA checks and grants access without user interaction.

New

AI-18526

New username transformer plugin Airlock 2FA Username Transformer. It allows the user to log in using the Futurae account ID.

New

AI-18530

To support the seamless migration from an authenticator app such as the Airlock 2FA app to an app using the Futurae SDK, the scheme of the authentication URI returned by Futurae can be overridden in IAM's mobile-only 2FA authentication and approval steps.

New

AI-18531

The new auth flow Step Airlock 2FA Delete Authentication Device Step unenrolls the Airlock 2FA device that was used to authenticate the end-user in the current flow. If no Airlock 2FA authentication was used before the new step or if the user has only a single-app device registered no device is unenrolled.

New

AI-18071

The priority of Airlock 2FA authentication factors to use (One-Touch, Online/Offline QR code, and Passcode) can now be configured not only for the Airlock 2FA Authentication Step but for all Airlock 2FA steps (self-services, approval steps, authentication step).

Improvement

AI-17769

Added more information to most log statements concerning Airlock 2FA actions, especially communication to the Futurae cloud service. Added information includes the Futurae session and user ID and improves both auditing and log correlation.

Bugfix

AI-18052

Airlock 2FA: Prevent unnecessary device selection prompts if multiple OTP hardware tokens are used.

Authentication and Loginapp

New

AI-16561

The Loginapp Design Kit now works on plain Windows without WSL. Please refer to Installation of the Loginapp Design Kit for further information.

New

See Customization with Resource Sets for further information.

New

AI-18239

New Custom CAPTCHA plugin that allows the usage of own custom CAPTCHA services (must be compatible with the reCAPTCHA API).

Note that the UI needs to be implemented using Loginapp Design Kit customization.

New

AI-18002

On the Cronto push challenge page in Loginapp: The display name of the Cronto device to which push messages have been sent.

New

AI-18362

"Push-to-all" option for Cronto in transaction approval flows. This feature allows to send a push message to all registered devices of a user.

New

For general information about state externalization, see Storing session state in an external Redis session repository.

New

AI-17691

Certificate Context Extractor can now be configured to work with Airlock Microgateway.

New

AI-18019

Support for Envoy XFCC HTTP header to extract the mTLS X.509 client certificate. The XFCC header must contain the certificate key as specified by Envoy including the URL-encoded PEM certificate.

The Airlock Microgateway (or other Envoy proxies) must be configured to pass the XFCC header as-is to IAM.

New

AI-18501

The plugins JWT Ticket EC Signer Settings and JWT Ticket RSA Signer Settings now add the certificate's kid by default into signed JWTs. The new property Include KID allows configuring to not add the kid if desired.

Improvement

AI-16812

Redirect the browser to the requested forward location even if the target application has been selected by application ID. To do so /ui/app/auth/application/access/<applicationId> URL now also accepts a Location parameter.

Improvement

AI-17757

Improved REST API naming consistency for the following calls:

  • The endpoint /public/authentication/username/identify is now also available as /public/authentication/user/identify.
  • The endpoint /public/self-service/username/identify is now also available as /public/self-service/user/identify.

The old endpoints may be removed in IAM 9.0.

Improvement

AI-17910

SAML2: Authentication instant attribute can now be configured to use a date format instead of milliseconds since epoch.

Improvement

AI-18169

In the Loginapp Design Kit, NodeJS is no longer downloaded per customization. An absolute path can be set in the SDK_NODE_BASE_FOLDER environment variable to define the location.

If no location is set, it is downloaded to <sdk base folder>/.internal/node-<version>

See also Installation of the Loginapp Design Kit.

Improvement

AI-18082

The provided username can be included in SSO tickets and thus made available to target applications (like the Airlock IAM Adminapp).

Improvement

AI-18198

The log output written during the renewal (on login) and the deletion of a remember-me cookie has been improved.

Improvement

AI-118417

Updating the login statistics can now be disabled in the Default Authentication Processor plugin. This may be useful in certain use cases such as user representation.

See also User representation – representee configuration in the Loginapp REST API.

Bugfix

AI-9385

The Target URI Resolver in the Loginapp's authentication UI settings now prevents too lax patterns from allowing open redirects.

Disallowed patterns (like .*) prevent the migration of the configuration to 8.2 and must be adapted before migrating to IAM 8.2.

Bugfix

AI-18156

Block forward URIs containing a user info part (e.g. username:pwd@www.host.com) earlier in request processing. This improves security and prevents the URI from being logged.

Bugfix

AI-17662

GSID (global session ID) is correctly read from Airlock Gateway environment cookie AL_ENV_SESSION_ID in the one-shot feature of the Loginapp.

Bugfix

AI-18118

Fixed a bug where the "Login from new device"-cookie was served without a path.

Bugfix

AI-18333

Fixed sporadic errors when skipping or disabling Cronto push activation.

Bugfix

AI-18263

The SAML relay state is now also propagated for SP- and the default application. Before this fix the default URL was propagated.

Bugfix

AI-18344

Fix parsing distinguished names (DNs): before the fix, strings parsed to DNs were parsed ignoring non-escaped (and thus invalid) delimiter characters (such as / or =). Non-escaped delimiters are no longer accepted.

Affected plugins: Certificate Authenticator, OAuth 2.0 Client Certificate (in static OAuth client configuration).

Bugfix

AI-18165

Various Loginapp UI fixes. See Loginapp UI Customizations Fix in 8.0.4 and 8.1.1 for further details.

Bugfix

AI-17359

Fixed bug when using the User Identity Map outside of authentication flows.

AI-18476

Fixes a bug that caused Airlock IAM to ignore private IP addresses sent by Airlock Gateway or Airlock Microgateway via HTTP header.

Bugfix

AI-18715

Forward location URIs passed to the Loginapp may now contain commas.

Bugfix

AI-18690

Fixed rejection of previously used TOTPs in multi-instance setups.

Bugfix

AI-17222

Fixed bug in testlet for temporary locking.

Flows

New

AI-17896

The Username Password Authentication Step now supports CAPTCHAs.

New

AI-17638

Protected Self-Service Flows can now be used without a user data source (persistency-less). This may be helpful when users are authenticated by persistency-less authentication flows. Such users can now also use certain self-services, e.g. start user representation.

There are some limitations, e.g. self-services editing user data will work but cannot persist the changes. Please refer to the documentation of the corresponding plugins in the Config Editor.

New

AI-18525

  • New approval steps for FIDO/Passkeys in public and protected self-services:
  • FIDO Public Self-Service Approval Step

Bugfix

AI-18387

Fixed handling of CAPTCHAs when using dynamic step activation.

Bugfix

AI-18189

Using the plugin Email Item Definition in a self-registration flow was never supported and resulted in REST error responses. Configuring this non-functional setup is now prevented in the Config Editor.

Bugfix

AI-18044

The Loginapp UI now appends query parameters and fragments to URLs in the correct order.
