We are pleased to announce Topicus KeyHub 12.3. This release brings many improvements to our virtual appliance, IDP initiated SSO flows and a user manual in English. As usual, a large number of smaller improvements have been made and many issues have been fixed.
Before upgrading to 12.3 be sure to read the following important notices. Some changes need to be made to your configuration or your upgrade will fail. Also, tightened security validations might impact your SSO applications.
TKH-969 TKH-972 Starting with 12.3 we now push our docker containers to our own repository. This means you need to change the images in your docker-compose.yml. The repository does not require authentication. For keyhub-db use docker.topicus-keyhub.com/keyhub/keyhub-db and for keyhub-app use docker.topicus-keyhub.com/keyhub/keyhub-app. Also, a new container was added to perform custom attribute evaluation in a sandbox. Without this container, custom attributes on OAuth2 and SAML2 applications will not work. Add the following container to your docker-compose.yml:
scriptengine:
container_name: "keyhub-scriptengine"
image: docker.topicus-keyhub.com/keyhub/keyhub-scriptengine
restart: always
Finally, add this new container as a dependency to the keyhub-app container:
depends_on:
- db
- scriptengine
Naturally, if you are running the virtual appliance, this will all be handled as part of the regular upgrade.
TKH-974 In accordance to the OAuth 2.0 Security recommendations Topicus KeyHub now strictly validates query parameter presence and contents in callback URLs. Before upgrading to 12.3, make sure your OAuth2/OIDC applications have their callback URLs correctly set, including any query parameters. The callback URL used by an application can be seen in the browser console as the redirect_uri query parameter for the request on the /login/oauth2/authorize endpoint. A mismatch in the callback URL will result in an error when trying to use the SSO application. Naturally, the simple wildcards in the hostname or path and the port ranges are still supported.
TKH-992 The quick search field on the dashboard now also filters the groups on your dashboard. This allows you to quickly search vault records and groups at the same time.
TKH-985 A new endpoint for IDP initiated SAML and OIDC flows has been added. For example, https://keyhub.example.com/login/initiate?client=urn:amazon:webservices will redirect the user to Amazon. It is also possible to use the client identifier of an OIDC client, which will initiate the third party login flow using the configured Initiate login URI.
TKH-1037 The audit log now shows all group related messages to all members of a group, not just the managers. This will give all members of the group insight in important events such as new members, changes to applications or modified vault records.
With our previous release we've introduced a new way to install Topicus KeyHub: a virtual appliance. This release vastly improves the installation via this virtual appliance and integrates the appliance manager with Topicus KeyHub itself. The following issues were solved:
