Various Improvements and added Link to Support Desk & Feature Request Button

 

16.09.2024

Cloud Infrastructure Improvements

Purely technical improvements of our Cloud infrastructure.

08.08.2024

New: Github Integration

The new GitHub integration enables users to seamlessly pull and push diagrams from and to GitHub. The user interface has been refined with several overlay improvements. Additionally, BPMN-DMN linkages have been enhanced to ensure names are displayed accurately and consistently.

15.07.2024

Backwards Compatible to Deal with Differing Atlassian Marketplace Specification

Specific customers were faced with problems not reproducible on any other Confluence instance. The reason turned out to be an outdated specification of our app being delivered to them by the Atlassian Marketplace, as they were in synchronization with a non-existent Marketplace version of our app.

To mitigate the effects of this for the time being and to give the Atlassian Marketplace team time to investigate, our app is now fully compatible with this specification.

15.07.2024

Access Ressources like Diagram Files as User instead of as the App

Confluence ressources, for example the file containing the diagram itself attached to a Confluence page, can be accessed in different ways.

Apps can operate as themselves and appear as a technical user. Certain Confluence instances where not configured to let this technical user access the necessary ressources.

Instead of trying to access ressources as a technical user, our app now operates as the currently logged in Confluence user. This way, our app displays or even edits exactly the ressources a user would be able to view or edit as well. It does so in their name as it is a tool which is, in the end, operated by the users themselves.

15.07.2024

New: Usage Restriction to Specific Spaces

  • Admins can now restrict usage to certain, specially whitelisted Confluence spaces. See our manual for further information.

  • Improved read and write operations for configurations on a per diagram basis like zoom level, shown diagram version and diagram name.

13.05.2024

Large Models can again be opened as usual

  • Large models sometimes suffered a performance decrease. This has been improved.

06.05.2024

Improved Quick Add Link & Comment Buttons

  • Improved styling and usability of the comment and “add link” buttons attached to selected elements

  • Updated dependencies

15.04.2024

Quick access to add link dialog and BPMN Modeler Free to Enterprise Upgrade now in Confluence Cloud!

  • The overlays attached to a selected element now contain a button to quickly access the dialog to add a link to that element

  • Organizations that used the DMN Modeler Free in their OnPremise Confluence instance can now migrate all Free diagrams to the DMN Modeler Enterprise directly on their Confluence Cloud instance

28.03.2024

Usage Improvements

  • Enable using App in protected environment with no access to external URLs

  • Add user feedback when entering App editor from Confluence page edit mode

  • Improve UI for warning about attachment version history in Confluence page view mode

20.02.2024

Confluence search now includes diagram names

  • Diagram names are indexed by Confluence search and macros are thus searchable

  • Preparations for becoming Atlassian Cloud Fortified

22.01.2024

Improved DMN table view

It is now possible to save your DMN decision table directly in the table viewer.
Additionally, in case the DMN includes only a single decision table, the modeler opens the decision table directly instead opening the decision requirement graph (DRD).
Finally, we improved the license handling

18.12.2023

API Upgrade

  • Upgrade to Confluence Cloud new API v2

27.10.2023

Fix Release

Correctly enable macro creation on Confluence pages after migrating from Confluence Server to Cloud.

26.10.2023

Minor Improvements

  • Updated dependencies

  • Improved Navigation Bar styling

19.10.2023

Fix GitLab Authentication vulnerability

We have been made aware of a vulnerability in our Confluence Cloud app “DMN Modeler Enterprise” by a researcher of the Marketplace Bug Bounty program relevant for customers who have connected a GitLab instance to the app. This issue existed before the mentioned release date, the 19th of October 2023. All installations have been updated automatically and the issue thus no longer exists. No action needs to be taken on your part.

This vulnerability has been rated critical, according to the scale published on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS).

If connected with a GitLab project, our app is configured with a client secret. This secret authenticates our app with GitLab. Only logged in Confluence users were able to access this client secret. The client secret itself can not be used to access GitLab, but instead needs to be coupled with an access token which authenticates a specific GitLab user and lets our app act on behalf of this user. This access token was not accessible for anyone but the user themselves. Thus, no unauthenticated party was able to access any GitLab data.

Remediation actions have been taken and the vulnerability has been fixed by precisely following the GitLab procedure for implementing a safe OAuth 2.0 flow for authenticating as a third party app. This solution has then been discussed with our security experts and a repeated test by the researcher who first reported the issue was requested.

Based on our investigation, the vulnerability has thus not led to any impact on our customers or any disclosure of data.

Still, the client secret should not have been accessible and we want you to know that we take this issue very seriously. We are conducting a review of our internal processes and have already implemented additional security reviews - tool guided and by our security experts.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments you might have.
