Update of the Jetty web server to version 12

The Jetty web server used by Cryptshare has been updated to version 12. If you have made changes to the configuration files (ui-config.xml and ai-config.xml), please check whether the automatic update of the configuration files has run correctly and adjust them manually if necessary.

It might happen, that the Cryptshare server does not start correctly while rebooting after the update was installed. In this case, to allow the server to start correctly, please install the default ui-config.xml and ai-config.xml in the resources/WEB-INF directory and reach out to our support.

For more information on configuration, see the article Web Server Configuration.

New features

REST-API

New Version number

The version number of the Cryptshare REST API was increased to 1.11.

Extended REST-API feature: "Zip download of specified transfer files"

It is now possible during downloading the transfer files in a zip file to specify which files explicitly should be included or excluded from the zip file. More information can be found here (TBD).

Option to prohibit email based verifications over the REST-API

A new Checkbox is now available in the REST-API Addon Products page to configure whether generating the verification codes for the email based verification over the REST-API is allowed or prohibited. By unchecking the option, REST-API clients cannot request the sending of verification codes per email anymore.

For installations without a licensed REST API feature, this option will be set during the update to "prohibited", while installations with a licensed REST API feature will be set to "allowed". If you have the REST API licensed, but do not use the email based verification feature, you can now set email based verifications to "prohibited".
