This is a critical update for any institutions that run UDOIT on a separate domain from their instance of Canvas, such as the LTI server being "lti.myuniversity.edu" and Canvas being "myuniversity.instructure.com". This update needs to be applied to keep UDOIT working for Chrome users starting in February. Check the Chromium Blog for more information.
If you aren't able to update UDOIT to the latest version before February, you can manually fix this issue by inserting this session cookie settings code in config/settings.php immediately after the "define('UDOIT_VERSION',..." line.
Important Note: If you are upgrading from an existing installation, there are some specific instructions you need to follow. Refer to the full release notes.
PHP 7.3 Incompatibility: Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we were still unable to figure out the issue with PHP 7.3 on Heroku. I would appreciate any help the community can provide testing UDOIT on PHP 7.3 and 7.4 on their "testing", "staging" or "QA" servers. For more information see Issue 422.
