So you have applied the latest iFix as that is the best praticse for your CLM/ELM environment just to find out your widgets have stopped working and you cannot find what could be the cause of the problem?
With the new iFixes starting from versions ELM 7.0.2 iFix004, ELM 7.0.1 iFix009, CLM 6.0.6.1 iFix018, and CLM 6.0.6 iFix022 the IBM has implemented new security measures to prevent Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities.
This measure has changed the behavior of all OpenSocial gadgets and RSS feeds that fetch content from an external service or location which results in errors when trying to add widgets to your side-panel or dashboard that worked flawlessly before.
Solution?
In order to fix this issue and get your widgets working again you need to add the location (URLs) of your extension hosting servers into jazz "allowlist" first.
You can find the allowlist in JTS application in Admin menu. Navigate to "Advanced properties" and search for "allowlist".
Here add all URLs resolving to your hosting servers separated by comma without space. (You can type in an asterisk "*" instead to allow all traffic.)
After this step you need to also add required URLs to the whitelist of CLM/ELM application that you are using your widgets with.
For example if you want to add your widgets to RM applications, navigate to https://yourdomainame.com/rm/admin.
At the bottom of the side-menu click on "Whitelist" and add the required URLs here one by one.
Now you may continue working with your widgets.
*It may take up to 10 minutes to take changes into effect.

Webinar - Overview of Agile Practices for Model-Based Embedded Software Development
Thu September 16, 2021 | 09:00 AM - 10:00 AM PT
Model-driven development (MDD) and agile methods are often seen as being “at odds” with each other, especially in the world of safety-critical, high-reliability systems. MDD practitioners feel that agile is too unstructured to result in reliable and safe systems, while agile practitioners complain about doing work that isn’t directly writing or testing code. In actuality, they can be considered complementary approaches that bring their own strengths to bear for the development of high-quality software for embedded systems. Modeling brings strong notions of design, a single source of truth, traceability to other work products (such as requirements and standards), and automatic code generation. Agile methods bring incremental development, continuous testing, and a whole host of best practices for the development of software-related work products. This talk will address many of the most important agile/model-driven practices for the development of embedded software systems.
Our Presenter: Dr. Bruce Douglass of Mitre Corp.
Senior Principle Agile Systems Engineer - Mitre Corp Bruce has worked as a software developer and systems engineer in real-time systems for over 30 years and is a well-known speaker, author, and consultant in the area of real-time embedded systems. He has been on the Advisory Board of the Embedded Systems and UML World conferences where he has taught courses in systems engineering, project estimation, and scheduling, project management, object-oriented analysis and design, communications protocols, finite state machines, design patterns, and safety-critical systems design. He develops and teaches courses and consults in real-time systems and software design and project management and has done so for many years. He has done extensive consulting, specializing in real-time safety-critical systems developments, especially in the industries of aerospace, defense, medical, and automotive. He has authored articles for many journals and periodicals, especially in the real-time and embedded domain.

Webinar - Product line engineering with the ELM Platform and Pure-Variants
Thu August 26, 2021 | 09:00 AM - 10:00 AM PT
In this webinar, we will explain how product family management is carried out across the lifecycle from Systems to Software engineering. Today's complex systems are often delivered across multiple markets, budgets, and customers. This requires designing products as families, starting at the systems engineering phase and then propagated into component implementations at the software and electronic levels. This requires managing a variability concept that is integrated with the solution architecture and implementation concepts. We will explain and demonstrate how this is incorporated as part of an overall digital engineering process, across requirements, model-based analysis and design, test management, and then software implementations. We will also demonstrate how different variant configurations are maintained and synchronized with the product family assets.
Presenters: Eran Gery and Andy Lapping of IBM
