Light Weight Run-time Container The new light-weight class loader reduces the foot print of JVM in the physical memory. With less resource utilization, the application delivers results without compromising quality.
Product Labeling The build process now compiles all the artifacts and applies product labeling for customer ease-of-use. Labeling include information about the build date, time, and product version details.
Critical Variable References The required parameter values of JAVA_HOME, install path, database, and email details are now updated to the configuration file during installation for future reference.
Service Interface DefinitionEvery build now creates a JAX-WS WSDL file from the source code that includes the new version of the product with changes incorporated.
Application Stability and ScalabilityBetter IM stability and scalability have been achieved through performance re-engineering. The reduced footprint on the physical resources makes the application more stable and provides improved performance

  • Date of Release: September 27, 2015

Fixed Defects

The following security vulnerability defects have been corrected for Version 7.0.9.0.

FeatureDescription
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)– Persistent

Improved the input validation to web pages to prevent a website or web application from storing user input and serving it back to other users when retrieving it at a later stage without validation before storage or before embedding stored content into HTML response pages.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)– Reflected

Improved the input validation to web pages to prevent an attacker from injecting browser executable code within a single HTTP response that could impact users who open a maliciously crafted link or third-party web page.

SQL Injection

Improved the input validation to web pages to prevent the insertion or "injection" of a SQL query via the input data from the client to the application which could potentially read sensitive data from the database, modify database data (Insert/Update/Delete), execute administration operations on the database (such as shutdown the DBMS), recover the content of a given file present on the DBMS file system and, in some cases, issue commands to the operating system.

System Information Leak: Database Connection String

Encrypted database connection strings and restricted their access. Restricted directory browsing and conditions that could render local files to clients. Updated error handling to inform end users of potential problems without providing system information.

Insecure HTTP Methods Enabled

Implemented policies to ensure that a suitable character set is specified in the Content-Type HTTP response header or the HTML meta tag for every response generated by the web application.

Missing HttpOnly Attribute in Session Cookie Modified cookies to be HTTP only, implemented better filtration of user-supplied data, implemented client-side validation of user supplied data, and implemented encoding to all user-supplied data to prevent inserted scripts being sent to end users in a format that can be executed.
Password AutocompleteTurned off password autocomplete to reduce the possibility of password leakage.
