• I can’t confirm (with verified ABP sources) that a Scriban security vulnerability was fixed specifically in ABP 10.2. The 10.2 release announcement I can verify doesn’t mention Scriban/security fixes, and I couldn’t retrieve ABP’s exact Scriban package version change for 10.2 from the available indexed sources/tools.
• What I can verify is ABP’s general approach: ABP regularly upgrades bundled NuGet packages to latest versions (example support answer + PR reference). If your concern is a Scriban CVE, the safe/definitive action is to upgrade to the latest ABP patch version available (not just 10.2.0) and/or explicitly pin Scriban to a patched version in your solution if you use it directly or transitively.

If your SAST tool reports a specific CVE/GHSA for Scriban, the most reliable check is:

1. upgrade ABP to latest patch in your major line, then
2. run dotnet list package --include-transitive and confirm the resolved Scriban version is the fixed one for that advisory.

• Don’t override Scriban to 7.x on ABP 8.2.3. The exception you see is expected because Volo.Abp.TextTemplating.Scriban (v8.2.3) was built against an older Scriban API. In Scriban 7, some types (e.g., Scriban.Parsing.ParserOptions) changed in a breaking way, so ABP 8.2.3’s Scriban integration assembly can no longer load the expected type shape, resulting in: TypeLoadException ... ParserOptions ... value type mismatch.

• Recommended mitigation on ABP 8.2.3 / .NET 8 (no framework/runtime upgrade):

  1. Keep Scriban at ABP’s pinned transitive version (remove the explicit <PackageReference Include="Scriban" Version="7.0.0" />).
  2. Ensure you do not reuse TemplateContext instances across renders in your own code. The reported GHSA/CWE scenario requires reusing the same TemplateContext and then tightening MemberFilter/MemberRenamer later. ABP’s integration is designed around rendering templates per call (i.e., no long-lived/reused TemplateContext pattern in normal usage).
  3. If your goal is to satisfy security scanning rather than a practical exploit path in your app, the viable option without breaking ABP 8.2.3 is to suppress the specific NuGet advisory for Scriban (since upgrading Scriban alone is not compatible with ABP 8.2.3):

<ItemGroup>
       <NuGetAuditSuppress Include="https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-5wr9-m6jw-xx44" />
     </ItemGroup>

• What not to do

  • Do not force Scriban 7.x with ABP 8.2.3; it is not binary-compatible with Volo.Abp.TextTemplating.Scriban v8.2.3 (as your runtime error demonstrates).

• If you need Scriban 7.x fix without suppression

  • That requires an ABP version whose Volo.Abp.TextTemplating.Scriban package is built for Scriban 7.x (i.e., an ABP upgrade path), not just a runtime/.NET upgrade toggle.

• PermissionDefinition.RequireFeatures(...) affects authorization/runtime checks (i.e., whether a permission is considered applicable/grantable when evaluating grants), but the Permission Management UI can still list the permission definitions because it primarily renders from the permission definition list and does not automatically “hide” permissions just because a feature is disabled.

• So, what you’re seeing is expected with the current behavior: disabling a feature does not guarantee that the permission nodes disappear from the Permission Management modal.

• If you want them hidden, you need to disable/remove the permission definitions themselves when the feature is disabled (so they won’t be part of the definition list), rather than only attaching RequireFeatures(...).

  • Practically, this means customizing the permission definition phase (e.g., PostDefine) and setting IsEnabled = false for that tenant/edition scenario is not possible directly because permission definitions are static at startup (not per-tenant).
  • The typical approach is: don’t register the module/permission definitions at all unless the module is available (module-level enable/disable), or implement a custom Permission Management UI filtering that checks IFeatureChecker and excludes permissions that require disabled features.

• About ABP Suite generation:

  • There is no built-in ABP Suite setting that automatically appends .RequireFeatures(...) to generated permissions, and there’s also no “group-level” RequireFeatures(...) that automatically applies to all children in the way you expect; you must add it per-permission (or create your own helper/extension method to apply it consistently in code after generation).

• UpdateProfileDto belongs to the Account module (not Identity). ABP moved the whole profile API (IProfileAppService + related DTOs like UpdateProfileDto) from Identity to Account earlier (so it’s normal you don’t find it under Identity sources).

• For the specific change you hit (UpdateProfileDto.AppName became required / newly required in v10.1.1): I can’t verify a public PR/commit/discussion for that change with the tools available here.

  • I searched the indexed public ABP GitHub sources for UpdateProfileDto / AppName but found no occurrences, which indicates the change is likely in a part not included in the indexed open-source repos (or in a product/module repo not available here).
  • So I can’t provide a verified PR/commit link for that exact change.

• Practical guidance (so your custom React client won’t break again on such DTO changes):

  1. Treat ABP’s “My Profile / Update Profile” endpoints as versioned contracts and regenerate client proxies on every upgrade (even if you don’t use the official React module). This catches required-field changes early.
  2. When calling the profile update endpoint from your React UI, always send appName (typical values used by ABP UIs are UI identifiers like "Angular", etc.). In your case, pick a stable constant for your frontend, e.g. "React" or your product name, and keep it consistent.

• Where you can reliably track some profile API history:

  • The (older) official migration guide that documents the module move (Identity -> Account), including a reference PR (but that specific GitHub PR link is not accessible from my URL checker right now).

• You’re not missing anything: in ABP 10.2.0, the OpenIddict Applications UI (Blazor Server) doesn’t expose a proper multi-value editor for RedirectUris (which is stored as a JSON array in the DB). So the UI ends up behaving like a single Redirect URI field.

• And yes: if you open an application in that UI and save it, you can overwrite the JSON array with only what the UI sends (often just one URI). So it can effectively “throw away” the additional redirect URIs.

Solution

1. Do not edit/save OpenIddict Applications from the built-in UI if the application has multiple redirect URIs you need to preserve.

2. Use one of these safe approaches instead:

   • Seed/manage via DbMigrator config (preferred in ABP): put the correct RootUrls / RedirectUris in the OpenIddict.Applications section so they’re consistently generated/updated by the seeder (and you’re not hand-editing UI data).
   • Direct DB edit (short-term): update the RedirectUris JSON array in OpenIddictApplications manually.
   • Build a small custom admin UI that binds to List<string> and serializes/deserializes to the JSON array correctly (recommended if you want it editable from UI).

3. If your goal is “at least show raw JSON so we can edit it”:

   • That would require customizing/replacing the application management modal/page (the built-in one doesn’t offer that in 10.2.0).
   • Practically: implement your own page/component for OpenIddict application CRUD and include a textarea for the JSON (or a chips/tag editor). This avoids losing data and gives you the UX you want.

• In ABP 10.2.0 (Blazor Server UI), the OpenIddict Application Management UI does not provide a multi-value editor for RedirectUris. That’s why you only see (and can effectively edit) a single Redirect URI in the modal/page, even though the database stores RedirectUris as a JSON array (e.g. ["https://url1","https://url2"]).
• With the current UI behavior, yes: if you edit/save an application from that UI, it can overwrite the stored JSON array with whatever the UI sends back (typically a single value), which means you can lose all redirect URIs except the first/edited one.

What you should do to avoid losing RedirectUris (safe options):

1. Do not use the UI edit form for applications that require multiple redirect URIs.
2. Manage OpenIddict applications using one of these instead:
   • Database-level update (manually maintain the JSON array in the RedirectUris column), or
   • A custom admin page/component (recommended) that binds to a List<string> and serializes/deserializes properly, or
   • A custom application service endpoint in your solution that updates the redirect URI list without dropping existing values.

Related (often confused) setting:

• RedirectAllowedUrls in appsettings.json is a separate deployment concern (ABP side) and not the per-client OpenIddict redirect URI list (OpenIddict side). It won’t solve the “multiple redirect URIs per client” editing problem.

If you want this to be fixed in the commercial UI, please report it to ABP Commercial support with a minimal reproduction; that’s how it gets tracked and patched.

• ABP itself does not have a built-in “polling loop” that opens outbound SQL connections during idle periods (i.e., with zero HTTP requests) unless you’ve enabled/installed something that runs in the background (e.g., Hangfire server, ABP Background Workers, health checks, distributed cache backplane, etc.).
• In a typical MVC (non-tiered) ABP v10 app, the main sources of “connections while idle” are:
  1. Your job scheduler/worker (Hangfire server), and/or
  2. Any ABP Background Worker you (or a module) registered, and/or
  3. ASP.NET Core / App Service platform behaviors (health probes, always-on pings, etc.—not ABP).

• What ABP can do in the background (only if you enabled it):

  • Background Workers / Background Jobs infrastructure exists in ABP, but it doesn’t do anything by itself unless workers/jobs are registered and running in your process. ABP’s background workers are designed to run periodically/in a loop while the app is up.
  • If you integrated ABP with Hangfire for background processing, then your Hangfire server is exactly the kind of component that will keep opening SQL connections independent of HTTP traffic (polling, fetching jobs, heartbeats, etc.).

• ABP features you mentioned are not timer-based connection creators by themselves:

  • Dynamic claims (IsDynamicClaimsEnabled = true): claims are typically evaluated during authentication / request pipeline usage, not via a standalone timer that continuously opens DB connections during total app idleness.
  • SecurityStampValidator: this is part of ASP.NET Core Identity cookie validation; it runs when principals are validated (request-driven), not as a periodic background timer with zero requests.
  • MultiTenantConnectionStringResolver / tenant resolution: resolves connection strings when a DbContext/UoW is created (request/job-driven). No “tenant polling” loop is expected.

• For your 3 questions (directly):

  1. Does ABP have internal background processes that open outbound connections independently of HTTP requests?
     Only if you are running background workers/jobs (including Hangfire integration) in that same process. ABP provides the infrastructure, but it doesn’t continuously “refresh cache / flush audit logs / renew locks” on a timer by default in an otherwise idle app.
     If you are running Hangfire server, that alone is sufficient to explain SQL connections during “idle HTTP”.

  2. With dynamic claims + multi-tenancy, do SecurityStampValidator or MultiTenantConnectionStringResolver create connections on a timer?
     No—those are request/job execution driven, not timer-driven background loops. They may open DB connections when invoked, but they’re not expected to steadily increase socket count with truly zero activity.

  3. Similar socket accumulation with ABP + Hangfire.SqlServer on Azure App Service?
     I don’t have a verified ABP-specific source that ties ABP to socket leaks here. However, Hangfire.SqlServer on App Service is a common suspect for persistent SQL connectivity and frequent polling. If sockets are accumulating (not just stable), that points more to a leak/misconfiguration or platform/network exhaustion than to ABP framework internals.

• Practical guidance (ABP-focused):
  1. Make sure only one Hangfire Server is running per instance (double-registration can multiply SQL polling/threads). In ABP, ensure you didn’t accidentally start Hangfire server twice (e.g., both AddHangfireServer() and ABP Hangfire integration starting it).
  2. If you don’t need Hangfire processing in the web app, move Hangfire Server to a separate Worker service (common ABP pattern) so your MVC app doesn’t host background polling.
  3. Inventory ABP Background Workers: if you (or a module) added any AsyncPeriodicBackgroundWorkerBase workers, they will run continuously and can trigger DB usage.

• In a tiered + separate AuthServer solution, the login password is validated by the AuthServer’s Identity database, not by the Blazor (UI) or HttpApi.Host database.
• With Separate Tenant Schema, it’s possible to end up changing the password in a different database/schema than the one the AuthServer is actually using for that tenant (or changing it under the wrong tenant context). The UI can still show “Saved successfully” because the SaaS operation succeeded, but the AuthServer still has the old hash, so Password_A keeps working.

Fix (recommended): ensure the password is set in the AuthServer’s Identity DB under the target tenant context

1. In your Host Admin UI, when you “Set password” for a tenant user, call an endpoint that runs in the AuthServer (or a shared application contract implemented in AuthServer), not only in the UI/host side.
2. In that endpoint, wrap the operation with the correct tenant:

using (CurrentTenant.Change(targetTenantId))
   {
       // set password for the tenant's admin/user via IdentityUserManager/UserAppService
       // (this ensures it updates the tenant's identity store that AuthServer uses)
   }

3. If you are using a SaaS tenant password operation (like “Set password” on tenant), replace/override the relevant SaaS app service and ensure it validates/sets the password in the correct context. ABP support confirms SaaS and Identity are separate concerns and customization is required in such scenarios; example replacement is shown in the verified ticket below.

Verification steps

• After applying the fix, directly check the AuthServer database for the tenant’s AbpUsers.PasswordHash (in the tenant schema) and confirm it changes when you set the password from Host.
• Then login should immediately require Password_B.

• replaceableComponents.add(...) is still the correct mechanism in ABP v10 Angular; it did not get removed.
• What did change (and commonly breaks upgrades) is the LeptonX component keys for the Side Menu Layout. If you upgraded from v8 to v10 and now see a blank header / default footer, your replacements are most likely registered with old keys, so ABP can’t match them and falls back to theme defaults.

1. Fix key changes for LeptonX Side Menu Layout

• In newer LeptonX versions, these keys were swapped/renamed:
  • eThemeLeptonXComponents.Navbar changed to eThemeLeptonXComponents.Toolbar
  • eThemeLeptonXComponents.Sidebar changed to eThemeLeptonXComponents.Navbar

So if your “header” customization was targeting the old Navbar key, it will no longer be used. Update your registration to the correct key(s) used by your layout.

2. Keep using Footer/Breadcrumb replacement, but ensure you target the right layout/keys

• Your examples:

this.replaceableComponents.add({
    component: BreadcrumbComponent,
    key: eThemeLeptonXComponents.Breadcrumb,
  });

  this.replaceableComponents.add({
    component: AppSettingsComponent,
    key: eThemeLeptonXComponents.Footer,
  });

are still conceptually correct, but after upgrading you must ensure:

• you’re using the current eThemeLeptonXComponents enum from the LeptonX theme package version you’re on
• the layout you actually run includes those replaceable slots (ApplicationLayout vs SideMenuLayout can differ)
• you also updated any header-related registrations to the new Toolbar/Navbar keys as noted above

3. Use the official LeptonX “Customization” map as the source of truth

• Re-check the current list of replaceable component keys and which layout uses them, then align your key: values with that list.
