Hotfix 1.10.13

Release Date: 21/05/2024

Key features

Compliance Validate

Compliance Validate is now more robust, displaying specific advanced certificate characteristics (OIDs) and qcStatement (OIDs) in the validation service and portal. You can also extend this feature to display additional OIDs.

Use property pdf.validation.oids.keys.values to add new OIDs.
Use property pdf.validation.oids.enabled to enable/disable this feature (enabled by default)

Fixes

In this release, enhancements were made to ensure the system recognizes various certificate types, including Advanced Electronic Signatures (AdES), Extended Validation (EV), server authentication, among others involved in digital signing workflows. By incorporating this functionality, the verification process is strengthened, aligning with stringent compliance standards governing digital document management.
