June 2026 focused on strengthening token lifetimes, authentication flow clarity, and multi-language support across xm-webapp and xm-uaa. Implemented configurable refresh token validity with localization, LDAP-domain aware tokens, and centralized token lifecycle configuration, improving security, performance, and user experience.

October 2025: Delivered a security hardening for the xm-uaa Account Update API by removing automatic updates to user authorities and introducing strictUserManagement gating to prevent updates when enabled. This change reduces the risk of unauthorized role changes and strengthens governance around user management. The changes are backed by two commits: 9dd922ccc24259ffcfff35df6da0a744c5cd8c4b (Remove update of authorities in update account API) and 06249412155786f543bee8444b2e941b5b426bba (Update authorities only if `strictUserManagement` property is disabled).

November 2021 summary for xm-online/xm-uaa: Implemented robust configuration retrieval error handling to prevent silent failures when content cannot be retrieved from the config-app. Added explicit exception throwing and improved logging, increasing reliability of configuration loading and observability for authentication/authorization components across the platform.
