A long time missing DateTime field, security and performance changes along with some new functionality make for another interesting and productive month.

Calendar

  • reset reminder when an event is dragged on the calendar into the future
  • send reminder up to 10 minutes after an event if it hasn't been sent


Service Worker Cache

In order to control the JavaScript browser cache and reduce file downloads from the server we introduce a service worker cache and a script to generate it automatically

Developer

  • First-time login audit event
  • Add new function isPicklistUIType() to check if a field is picklist
  • vtlib API enhancements: more field properties, update field, more options to retrieve fields, sort returned values
  • isInsideApplication security function to check if a file is contained inside the coreBOS installation directory tree
  • Add possibility to indicate custom values on popup request via the cbcustompopupinfo hidden fields. This is used to maintain sort by column and search alphabetically when you navigate


Global Variables

  • Application_ListView_Default_Sort_Order to define the default sort order on first click on column header label
  • Application_FirstTimeLogin_Template first time login welcome screen


Security

  • path traversal
  • SQL injection
  • XSS
  • specifically crafted URL permits deleting a record on another module if the user has permission to delete
  • bettersafe script
