This change has been rescheduled to Tuesday February 8th 14:00 UTC to give customers more time to adjust their environments.

A knowledge base article with a full description of the change is available here. The article contains important information on mandatory changes for users on 10.0 or 10.1 client versions in North America.

This change introduces a new endpoint for validating the certificate status. Please ensure that operating systems hosting the client are able to validate the server certificate status (OCSP/CRL) using port 80. 

Ensure that these certificate revocation lists (CRLs) are accessible from the client machine prior to the planned change on Tuesday February 8th 14:00 UTC  to guarantee continuity of service.

Current CRL: http://crl.godaddy.com/gdig2s1-3235.crl
New CRL: http://crl.sectigo.com/SectigoRSAOrganizationValidationSecureServerCA.crl
Platform CRL: http://crl3.digicert.com/ssca-sha2-g7.crl

The following fields are being made mandatory for tenant registration:

• Address
• City
• ZIP or postal code

If you have automation using the API for tenant registration and tenant updating you should modify your automation to account for these new mandatory fields. 

See the Data Protection on Demand (DPoD) Public API for more information about available endpoints and fields.

Under Development

If you are using an IP address in your HTTP Network Connection between your DPoD service and the DPoD platform we recommend you update your configuration to use the fully qualified domain name as described in Network Connectivity.

If your network configuration uses any hard coded IP addresses, be aware that upcoming changes to the DPoD platform will disrupt your connection to the service.

Added

• Version 10.3 of the HSM service client is now available for download from Thales Data Protection on Demand. This client supports hybrid usage of both Luna Cloud HSM services and the Luna HSM product line, as detailed in the HSM on Demand Client User Guide. See Upgrading your Luna Cloud HSM Service Client for more information about updating your Luna Cloud HSM service client.

Bugs Found

• LUNA-14009 - Executing cmu verifyhsm does not prompt the user to enter a challenge string. Always specify a challenge string using cmu verifyhsm -challenge <string>.
• LUNA-13907 - Requesting a certificate using cmu requestcertificate using the wrong attribute to specify the private key returns an incorrect error message. Use the -privateouid to specify a private key on a Luna Cloud HSM service.
• LUNA-13780 - Executing cmu import to import a DSA key fails. Use an RSA public key instead.
• LUNA-13761 - Executing cmu selfsigncertificate with no arguments specified, on Linux, cmu fails to prompt the user for the relevant object handles/OUIDs. Always specify the object handles/OUIDs using -publichandle and -privatehandle or -publicouid and -privateouid.
• LUNA-12822 - ckmdeo option Get OUID (39) returns OUIDs with extra zeroes appended. Use option Get Attribute (24) to view the correct OUID.
• LUNA-11269 - In HA configurations, where a Luna Cloud HSM service is configured as a standby, some events (such as when a connection drops and recovers due to a timeout when contacting the service) are not recorded in the HA log file.
• SH-5595 - Deriving X9.42 DH2 keys returns CKR_OBJECT_HANDLE_INVALID. We recommend you avoid upgrading your Luna Cloud HSM service client until the issue is resolved. 
• SH-4194 - Executing cmu getpkc to confirm a public key can fail. Execute the ckdemo Display Object (27) function to confirm the key pairs origins and security in the HSM. If the CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE attribute is present it confirms that the private key was created in the HSM and has never been extracted.

Bugs Fixed

• SH-4987 - The displayed serial numbers of self-signed certificates created using cmu selfsigncertificate now match the input serial number.

Bugs Found

Workaround: This issue results from attempting to delete a Tenant with active services. To clear this state you must remove the blocking service from the Tenant's Application Owner users.
