# PingFederate 12.1.2 (August 2024)

## Resolved issues

### Relative path symbolic links retrieve wrong file

Security PF-35678

We've fixed a defect that caused PingFederate to retrieve the wrong file when using relative paths in symbolic links.

### Heartbeat endpoint 500 error

Fixed PF-35842

We've fixed a defect that caused the heartbeat endpoint to return a `500` error after upgrading to PingFederate 12.1.

### Refresh token time zone discrepancies

Fixed PF-35867

We've fixed a defect that caused refresh tokens to roll prematurely when making authorization requests to servers in different time zones.

### Maintenance upgrade includes entire SDK directory

Fixed PF-35920

We've fixed a defect that caused the incremental update package for PingFederate versions 12.0 and 12.1 to unnecessarily install the entire SDK directory.

### Local error handling error

Fixed PF-35952

We've fixed a defect that caused PingFederate to redirect failed IdP sign on attempts rather than handling the error locally.
