February 2026 — pagopa/cstar-securehub-infra-api-spec: Implemented an experimental Merchant Role Management via the x-merchant-role header to differentiate merchant types based on the POS ID presence in the validated token, enabling potential role-based access control and enhanced merchant-type handling. The feature was rolled back across multiple API policy files to preserve production stability and avoid unintended access changes. Key commits include d41069c46a563533834f7c0eee16713f52786059 (EBE-613 x-merchant-role) and the revert d14e114b108aa01649051b8bfd4d6c7f8e50c11e.

November 2025 performance summary for development teams (pagopa/idpay-deploy-aks and pagopa/idpay-merchant). Key features delivered: - PDV Encryption Environment Configuration (idpay-deploy-aks): Added environment variables for PDV encryption/decryption to strengthen security and enable secure payment processing workflows. - Secure User ID Decryption and ID-based Operations (idpay-merchant): Refactored identity handling to use user IDs for operations, migrated from fiscal codes, and introduced a REST client for decryption to enhance security and regulatory compliance. Major bugs fixed: - Improve error handling when user is not found and validate user ID (idpay-merchant): Clearer exception messages and pre-flight userID validation to prevent invalid processing. - Improve error messaging in ReportedUserServiceImpl and status filtering (idpay-merchant): More accurate error messages and clarified transaction status filtering to improve user feedback and system integrity. Quality and reliability improvements: - Expanded test coverage for error handling and edge cases (ReportedUserServiceImpl and exception handling in PosValidationExceptionHandler): Increased reliability and correctness through targeted tests. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Strengthened security posture across PDV and identity workflows; improved compliance readiness and risk mitigation. - Increased system reliability and observability through targeted tests and clearer error reporting, enabling faster issue diagnosis and resolution. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Security configuration via environment variables and encryption/decryption workflows. - REST client integration for decryption processes. - Robust error handling, status filtering improvements, and test-driven development with expanded test coverage.
