UNI-17048	Create Table Utility crashes if primary key of table only includes non-db fields
UNI-13091	SOP U2.0: Basic end-point authentication fails when password contains equal sign

UNI-17048  -  Create Table Utility crashes if primary key of table only includes non-db fields

Solution available in patch(es):      10.3.03-036, 10.4.02-015

Description:

In case a table has one or more database fields (in version 10 "Is External"=True) and the primary key only consists of non-database fields (in version 10 "Is External"=False). If the user tries to generate a Create Table Script for such a table then Uniface will crash. The problem can be replicated with the Create Table Utility of Uniface 9 (and older) or the /genSql command line switch of version 10.

Environment:

+Uniface: All Versions
+Operating System: OS independent
+Database: MSS, DB2, MQL, PGS, and SLE

Workaround:

None.

Notes:

This problem is solved.

UNI-13091  -  SOP U2.0: Basic end-point authentication fails when password contains equal sign

Solution available in patch(es):      10.3.03-036, 10.4.02-015

Description:

The SOAP U2.0 connector does not decode the password correctly when it contains an equal sign ('=') and the Basic authentication scheme is used. As a result the end-point authentication with the web server will fail.

When using the basic authentication scheme (SOP connector option scheme=B) the end-point authentication with the web server will fail when the provided password includes an equal sign ('='). The generated Base64 value in the Authorization HTTP header is not correct.

Consider the following scenario:

The user 'user1' has the password 'abc='. This user is used to access a web service on a web server that uses the Basic authentication scheme:

usys$sop_params = euser=user1, epass=abc=, scheme=B

The SOAP connector will create the following Authorization HTTP header in the SOAP request:

Authorization: Basic dXNlcjE6YQ==

When decoding the Base64 value "dXNlcjE6YQ==" then the result is the "username:password"-pair "user1:a", instead of "user1:abc=".

Environment:

+Uniface: All Versions
+Operating System: OS independent
+Database: DBMS independent

Workaround:

None.

Notes:

This problem is solved.
