1 Summary
2 Problem Statement
During ILIAS updates, the Java server is frequently not recompiled. This results in outdated versions running in production with potential security vulnerabilities that remain unaddressed.
3 Concept
This issue will be resolved by implementing versioning with minimum version checks. If the running version falls below the required minimum, the system will raise a warning, ensuring only compliant versions operate in production
4 User Interface Modifications
4.1 List of Affected Views
- …
{ For all screens that should be modified, newly introduced or removed, please list the title and breadcrumb of all affected views. }
4.2 User Interface Details
{ For each of these views please list all user interface elements that should be modified, added or removed. Please provide the textual appearance of the UI elements and their interactive behaviour. }
4.3 New User Interface Concepts
{ If the proposal introduces any completely new user interface elements, you might consult UI Kitchen Sink in order to find the necessary information to propose new UI-Concepts. Note that any maintainer might gladly assist you with this. }
4.4 Technical Aspects
{ Necessary technical information have to be provided here, e.g. dependencies on other ILIAS components, necessary modifications in general services/architecture, potential security or performance issues. }
5 Non-Functional Implications
5.1 Security
{ Does the feature include any special security relevant changes, e.g. the introducion of new endpoints or other new possible attack vectors. If yes, please explain these implications and include a commitment to deliver a written security concept as part of the feature development. This concept will need an additional approvement by the JourFixe. }
5.2 Privacy
{ Personal data that will need to be stored or processed to implement this feature have to be listed here. For each date give a short explanation why it is necessary to use that date. }
5.3 Accessibility Implications
{ If the proposal contains potential accessibility issues that are neither covered by existing UI components nor clarified by guidelines, please list them here. For every potential issue please either propose a solution or write down a short risk assessment about potential fallout if there would be no solution for the issue. }
