Issue ID
Description
GPC-23839
Fixed an issue that caused the GlobalProtect 6.3.3 HIP report to fail with the error Method: WAAPI_MID_GET_AGENT_STATE.
GPC-23786
Fixed an issue where the agent-msg log (PanoramaMonitorGlobalProtect) was not generated when a user disabled the GlobalProtect app and logged out of the gateway.
GPC-23760
GlobalProtect app version 6.3.3 using SAML with the embedded browser loses cursor focus in the password field, requiring users to click in the password field before entering their password.
GPC-23752
Fixed an issue where the GlobalProtect app failed to authenticate to the portal and gateway after a machine certificate was renewed by Intune MDM. A reboot was required to restore the connection.
GPC-23746
Fixed an issue where the GlobalProtect HIP check incorrectly detected status for Symantec Endpoint Protection, which caused the device to fail the HIP check.
GPC-23646
Fixed an issue where the GlobalProtect app ignores the new gateway-generated authentication override cookie and continues to use the old, expired portal cookie when using the cached portal configuration. As a result, the authentication override cookie generated by a successful SAML authentication to a gateway is replaced by the old, expired portal cookie during successive authentications, causing the gateway to prompt for SAML authentication repeatedly.
GPC-23616
Fixed an issue where, when the GlobalProtect app was installed on devices running macOS, the following error TransparentProxy: openWithLocalEndpoint failed occurred in PanNExt.log when using an IPv6 address.
GPC-23583
Fixed an issue where the pre-login tunnel rename timeout notification would overlay other system tray icons, preventing users from accessing them
GPC-23558
Fixed an issue where GlobalProtect clients using SAML with Ping Federate did not save the SAML token upon reboot or restart of the pangps service, requiring users to re-authenticate even when the token was not expired. This issue affected GlobalProtect app version 6.3.3 when SAML authentication was configured in Prisma Access and not in Cloud Identity Engine.
GPC-23519
Fixed an issue where GlobalProtect HIP reports on MacBooks intermittently failed with an Invalid client IP error, preventing users from accessing resources over the GlobalProtect tunnel. This issue occurred after a system network change when GlobalProtect attempted to send the HIP report to an external gateway while the tunnel was disconnected. This issue affected MacBooks running GlobalProtect version 6.2.5.
GPC-23514
Fixed an issue where, when using a screen reader on Windows or macOS, the GlobalProtect app's Settings button did not announce the available options for the end users.
