2022-09-21	SOLNESS-32798	Special character handling issues for risk objects in Incident Review. Workaround: If a correlation search is handling special characters incorrectly, then the drill-down search within the notable under Adaptive Response Actions must be updated. Change the tokenized value that is wrapped in quotes by removing the quotes and adding the correct token filter, in this case '|s'. For example, within the correlation search: "Risk Threshold Exceeded For Object Over 24 Hour Period", update the risk object within the Adaptive Response Action Drill-down search for the notable. Change the risk object in the SPL from Template:Risk object="$risk object$" to {{risk_object=$risk_object|s$}}.

2022-03-01	SOLNESS-30155	Make Contributing Events Link always work in Risk Event Timeline
2022-01-31	SOLNESS-29825	Short IDs created before upgrading to ES 7.0 do not show up in Incident Review even though the Short ID is in the notable_xref_lookup. Workaround: When you upgrade Splunk Enterprise Security to versions 7.0.0 or higher, the short IDs for notables that were created prior to the upgrade are not displayed on the Incident Review page. However, you can recreate all the short IDs that were available prior to the upgrade.
