Connect2id server 14.1

This is a mini Connect2id server update to the 14.0 release that appeared on Tuesday. It fixes an incorrect server SDK dependency declaration, which means 14.1 is the version to upgrade to (and not 14.0) from 13.x or older versions.

Support for OpenID Connect Federation 1.0 is bumped to the most recent stable 29 draft, in particular the new policy language.

There is also a new config to disable the automatic inclusion of X.509 certificate chains (x5c) in the JWS headers of signed authorisation responses (JARM).

If the configured Connect2id server signing keys have certificates, the server will automatically include them in the JWS header, unless the server is instructed not to do so. This will result in smaller JARM JWTs:

op.authz.responseJWTIncludeX5C=true

This configuration works similarly to the existing op.idToken.includeX5C and authzStore.accessToken.includeX5C configs.

More information can be found in the release notes below. If you have questions or need assistance with the new release contact us.
