2019.12 Release Notes¶
These are updates in Managed Services Platform 2019.12 release, and plans for upcoming releases.
IMPORTANT: Older-version Endpoints to Be Discontinued¶
In the previous release, 2019.10, the deprecation of version 1 and version 2 requests was announced.
As of January 4, 2020, the older requests will be discontinued, and an attempt to access the old URL will result in a 410, “Gone”, error code.
In order, each row of the following table shows (1) a description of the endpoint, (2) the endpoint to be discontinued, and (3) the version-3 endpoint that replaces the earlier version:
| Get list of scans | `GET v1/customer/get_scans` | `GET v3/scans` |
| Schedule a new scan | `POST v1/customer/scan/schedule` | `POST v3/scans` |
| Download reports by a scan | `GET v1/customer/get_reports` | `GET v3/reports` |
| Get a list of targets | `GET v2/customer/targets` | `GET v3/targets` |
| Create a new target | `POST v2/customer/targets` | `POST v3/targets` |
| Upload files to be used by a scan | `POST v2/file` |
`POST v3/scans/ |
What’s New¶
These are the highlights of this release:
- Enhanced vulnerability finding status: The Open/Closed Finding status for each vulnerability for any given application is now included within XML- and CSV-formatted reports.
- Augmented cumulative reporting: For a given application, clients can track a list of open vulnerability findings from all tests by test type (DAST-E, PT-E, SAST-E, and so on) or by a list of open vulnerability findings generated from the latest test.
-
Greater efficiency in scheduling assessments: To improve assessment scheduling, when an individual scan is moved to a new date, other scans in the same assessment are automatically adjusted.
Only users whose role includes an enabled Update Scan toggle are allowed to reschedule a scan.
-
Expanded upload file format support: When scheduling tasks, usable file-upload formats now include
.doc,.docx,.pdf,.xls,.xlsx,.ppt,.pptx, and.json. - Increased available “block” of valid IPs to conduct assessments: The range of authorized IPs has been extended, affording clients from more countries the ability to run tests: NST, Web, and Mobile.
- Updated unique vulnerability identifier: Vulnerability identifiers are refined to assure consistency between XML- and CSV-formatted reports.
