March 2026 monthly summary focused on strengthening OIDC/JWKS integration and provider configuration across camunda/camunda and camunda/camunda-docs. Delivered robust features and fixes that improve security, reliability, and developer experience, with an emphasis on business value and measurable outcomes. Key features delivered: - Multi-JWKS Support Improvements: enhanced support for multiple JWKS sources, improved debugging and validation, cleaner URI processing, and updated tests for edge cases. - OIDC Issuer URI Null Handling Bug: fixed a NullPointerException when issuerUri is null, added regression test, and guarded map lookups to align with single-provider behavior. - TomcatEncodedSlashConfig and Encoded Slashes for OIDC REST API: enabled encoding of entity IDs with URL-encoding on the client, configured Tomcat to passthrough encoded slashes, and updated REST controllers and tests; moved config to dist module to align with dependencies. - Documentation updates: Keycloak 25.x end-of-life deprecation for Camunda 8.9; added upgrade guidance to Keycloak 26.x; and OIDC configuration improvements including a new additional-jwk-set-uris property with multi-provider guidance. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Strengthened security and resilience of OIDC flows across deployments, enabling reliable token validation with multiple JWKS sources and robust handling for non-standard issuer configurations. - Reduced outage risk by preventing NPEs and by aligning REST routing with encoded IDs in complex provider scenarios. - Improved developer productivity through clearer logs, regression tests, and up-to-date documentation guiding upgrades and multi-provider configurations. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Java, Spring Security/OIDC, Tomcat configuration, REST API design, and path parameter handling. - Unit and regression testing, test-driven refactoring, and dependency/module management. - Technical writing and product documentation for secure, scalable identity configurations.
