New Functionality and Enhancements in USoft 11.2​

This section provides you with an overview of the most important new functionality and enhancements in the product.

License management​

In this release, USoft has modernised license management. It replaces an earlier approach that no longer matched the way the USoft platform is deployed and licensed. The result is a licensing lifecycle that is more robust, more automated, and easier to follow.

For details, see USoft license management.

What is new:

  • A redesigned licensing framework that covers issuing, distributing and enforcing licenses.
  • Support for enforcement in the cloud and for enforcement on your own servers (on-premises).
  • One central licensing process, which improves governance and operational control.
  • A stronger basis for automating license management and for letting you manage licenses yourself in future releases.

Benefits:

  • Greater transparency about how licenses are used, what you are entitled to use, and when licenses must be renewed.
  • More consistent enforcement of license terms, which reduces the risk of breaching those terms and the risk of unexpected interruptions.
  • Cloud-based enforcement reduces manual work and the risk of mistakes during operation.

Rules Service scaling​

In version 11.2, the Rules Service can automatically shut down engines that have not been used for a certain period. This is called scaling down. Shutting down an engine frees resources and releases the license that the engine was using. Scaling down always takes the specified minimum number of engines into account. The number of engines is never reduced below that minimum.

The default timeout is 15 minutes. You can change it when you configure the Rules Service. You can also set it to unlimited. If you do, engines are never scaled down.

Version 11.2 also introduces Peak Engines. A Peak Engine works in the same way as a normal engine, except that it uses a separate concurrency allocation in the license. When all engines allowed by the license are in use, the Rules Service starts additional engines under the Peak Engines allocation. This is useful in production environments in which the regular license limit is reached.

Peak Engines exceed the number of engines specified in your license. USoft support therefore monitors how many Peak Engines you use, and may contact you about increasing the number of engines in your license.

When the Rules Service scales down, it shuts down running Peak Engines first. Engines that use the normal license are only scaled down when no Peak Engines are running. An incoming request is always assigned to an available normal engine first, and to a Peak Engine only if no normal engine is available.

For details, see Scaling.

SCIM user and group provisioning​

In version 11.2, the USoft platform supports SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management). SCIM is a standard for creating and maintaining users and groups in an application automatically, based on an external identity provider. Instead of maintaining application accounts by hand, your administrator connects your identity provider to the USoft SCIM endpoint. After that, changes that are made to users and groups in the identity provider are sent to the USoft platform automatically. These changes include creating, changing, deactivating and deleting a user.

For details, see Introduction to SCIM.

What is new:

  • A SCIM 2.0 endpoint for creating, updating, deactivating and deleting users.
  • Group provisioning, so that group membership in the identity provider can be mapped to USoft authorisation roles.

Benefits:

  • A new employee gets access without a manual account request. Someone who leaves the organisation loses access as soon as they are deactivated centrally.
  • Fewer accounts that are out of date or that no longer belong to anyone. This reduces both findings in audits and unnecessary license consumption.
  • One authoritative source for identity data, which keeps USoft authorisation aligned with the directory of your organisation.

Support for .NET 10 components​

In version 11.2, USoft supports building and using RDMI components that are based on .NET 10. Previously, you could only develop components for .NET 6.

What is new:

  • You can build and deploy components that target .NET 10.
  • You can continue to use the most recent Microsoft development platform and the tools that come with it.
  • You can use the improvements in performance, security and developer productivity that .NET 10 offers.

Benefits:

.NET 10 introduces a range of improvements, including:

  • Better application performance, through optimisations in the runtime and in the JIT compiler.
  • Extended security capabilities and continued improvements to the platform.
  • Better developer productivity, through the most recent C# language features and tooling.
  • Continued support for applications that are designed to run in the cloud and on more than one operating system.

.NET 10 is a Long-Term Support (LTS) release. Microsoft supports an LTS release for three years. This support includes security updates, bug fixes and servicing updates. .NET 10 was released on 11 November 2025 and is supported until 14 November 2028.

Vulnerabilities​

This section summarises the findings of vulnerability scans that were assessed for this release. Each finding is classified as patched, not applicable, a false positive, or low risk. The classification is based on the component versions that are present in the USoft product environment and on the way those components are used.

Summary​

CategoryComponent typeStatus
Linux / UbuntuPython CryptographyPatched / not applicable
Linux-Windows / JavaApache MINA SSHDFalse positive
Linux-Windows / Javajakarta.xml.rpc-apiFalse positive
Linux-Windows / Javaorg.ini4j/ini4jFalse positive

Linux (Ubuntu, container and open-source components)​

1. Python Cryptography package (Ubuntu 24.04)​

Reported: CVE-2026-26007, CVE-2024-26130, CVE-2023-50782, GHSA-537c-gmf6-5ccf

Assessment:

  • The image is based on Ubuntu LTS 24.04, which contains backported patches.
  • All relevant CVEs are either fixed or not applicable.

Result: not vulnerable. These scanner reports are expected false positives, caused by the way the package version is numbered.

2. Apache MINA SSHD​

Reported: CVE-2022-45047

Assessment:

  • The vulnerability affects SSHD version 2.9.1 and earlier.
  • The version in use is 2.16.0, which is not vulnerable.
  • The vulnerable class is not used.

Result: false positive. The vulnerability cannot be exploited in this environment.

3. ini4j (org.ini4j/ini4j)​

Reported: CVE-2022-41404

Assessment:

  • ini4j is used by a library, but it is not used to read .ini files that a user supplied. There is therefore no risk that the vulnerability is abused.

Result: false positive. The vulnerability cannot be exploited in this environment.

4. Java XML API (jakarta.xml.rpc-api)​

Reported: CVE-2016-4570, CVE-2016-4571

Assessment:

  • These CVEs apply to the mini-xml C library (msxml).
  • That library is not used by this dependency.

Result: false positive, caused by an incorrect mapping of the dependency.

Windows (.NET, PowerShell and Visual Studio)​

1. PowerShell and MarkdownRender mapping​

Reported: CVE-2024-0057, CVE-2024-21409

Assessment:

  • The scanner incorrectly maps MarkdownRender 7.2.1 to the PowerShell runtime.
  • The runtime actually in use is System.Management.Automation 7.2.19, which is patched.

Result: false positive, caused by an incorrect mapping of the component.

2. .NET Core 3.1​

Reported: CVE-2020-0605, CVE-2020-0606, CVE-2021-24112, CVE-2021-26701, CVE-2020-1147, CVE-2022-41032, CVE-2020-1108, CVE-2021-26423, CVE-2022-23267, CVE-2022-24464, CVE-2022-29117, CVE-2022-29145, CVE-2022-38013, CVE-2021-31204, CVE-2020-8927, CVE-2021-1721, CVE-2022-24512, CVE-2021-31957, CVE-2022-34716, CVE-2022-30184, CVE-2021-34485

Assessment:

  • The scanner assumes that the .NET Core 3.1 runtime is used.
  • The runtime actually in use is .NET Framework 4.6.1, which is not affected.

Result: false positive, caused by an incorrect mapping of the runtime through the CPE identifier.

3. SQL Client​

Reported: CVE-2024-0056

Assessment:

  • A newer version of SqlClient is in use.

Result: false positive.

4. Visual Studio and DIA SDK​

Reported: CVE-2014-3802

Assessment:

  • The vulnerability applies to msdia.dll in Visual Studio 2012 and earlier.
  • The component actually in use is EnvDTE.dll from Visual Studio 17.x.

Result: false positive, caused by an incorrect mapping of the component.

5. UDesign client-side JavaScript libraries (jQuery, Bootstrap)​

No CVEs were listed explicitly.

Assessment:

  • The vulnerabilities are client-side only.
  • Exploiting them requires DOM injection.
  • The application is not exposed externally.
