PingID general release notes

Info STAGING-24153 PingID We’ve fixed a security vulnerability where, under certain conditions, the PPM Request validity period was extended.

To minimize interruption to existing clients, there will be a 30-minute grace period for expired PPM requests, until November 1st, when the grace period will be reduced to 15 minutes.

Info STAGING-21611 PingID

For PingID environments that have been integrated into PingOne, you cannot use the edituser endpoint from the PingID API to modify user details. The error message that is returned in such situations has been improved to clearly indicate why the action cannot be carried out.

Fixed STAGING-22791 PingID

When enabling version update notifications, we’ve added a 7-day grace period during which users are not notified of the requirement to upgrade to the latest version of PingID mobile app. This is to provide enough time for the new version to be added to the relevant app stores before users are notified of the requirement to upgrade to the latest version.

Improved PingID

We’ve improved the authentication experience for users authenticating with a Passkey device through a Safari browser. It is no longer necessary to trigger the authentication flow by clicking a Continue button. The flow is now triggered automatically.

Improved PingID

The ​organization token ​field is now included in the PingID audit event information that is reported through the PingOne subscription facility.

Info PingID

In light of the announcement from Google that they are not continuing with their planned rollout of the Privacy Sandbox, PingID will stop using CHIPS (Cookies Having Independent Partitioned State) cookies for customers who have enabled support for iFrames via customer support. The use of cookies has thus been restored to the approach used prior to the change made in February 2024, described here.

New PingID

We’ve added the ability to aggregate all FIDO2 devices associated with a user’s account during authentication. This simplifies authentication, as the user is presented with a single FIDO2 authentication method representing all of their paired FIDO2 devices, rather than seeing each device listed separately. If the user chooses to authenticate with the aggregated FIDO2 authentication method, the OS of the accessing device selects the most appropriate method for them to use to authenticate.

Learn more at Creating a FIDO policy in the PingOne Cloud Platform documentation.

New PingID mobile app

For iOS changes, see Mobile app 2.2.0 (May 5, 2024) iOS.

This feature is not yet supported for DaVinci productized flows.
