Hotfix - incorrect binary encoding in REST requests
Hotfix versions 2024.2.5.3, 2025.0.4.1 and 2025.1.0.1 of the ADITO Platform have been released.
What changed
A bug in the handling of outgoing REST web service requests using the DATA_BINARY entity type not using multipart has been fixed. Since platform version 2024.2.0, the request body was erroneously Base64-encoded, even though the payload is expected to be in binary form. This additional encoding occurred regardless of the intended transmission format.
Why it matters
External systems receiving such requests expected raw binary data (e.g., for application/pdf, application/octet-stream). The unintended Base64 encoding altered the content and led to processing errors or integration failures.
Recommended actions
If you use DATA_BINARY in REST service calls without multipart encoding, and the receiving system expects raw binary payloads, you should apply this hotfix to ensure correct transmission behavior.
