consul v1.9.6 Release Notes

Release Date: 2021-06-04 // almost 3 years ago

  • 👌 IMPROVEMENTS:

    • acl: Give more descriptive error if auth method not found. [GH-10163]
    • areas: (Enterprise only) Use server agent's gossip_wan config when setting memberlist configuration for network areas. Previously they used memberlists WAN defaults.
    • cli: added a -force-without-cross-signing flag to the ca set-config command. 👍 connect/ca: The ForceWithoutCrossSigning field will now work as expected for CA providers that support cross signing. [GH-9672]
    • ⚡️ connect: update supported envoy versions to 1.16.3, 1.15.4, 1.14.7, 1.13.7 [GH-10105]
    • ⚡️ connect: update supported envoy versions to 1.16.4, 1.15.5, 1.14.6, and 1.13.7 [GH-10232]
    • telemetry: Add new metrics for status of secondary datacenter replication. [GH-10073]
    • telemetry: The usage data in the metrics API now includes cluster member counts, reporting clients on a per segment basis. [GH-10340]
    • 💻 ui: Added CRD popover 'informed action' for intentions managed by CRDs [GH-10100]
    • 🔒 ui: Added humanized formatting to lock session durations [GH-10062]
    • 💻 ui: Only show a partial list of intention permissions, with the option to show all [GH-10174]
    • ⚡️ ui: updates the ui with the new consul brand assets [GH-10090]

    🐛 BUG FIXES:

    • 🗄 agent: ensure we hash the non-deprecated upstream fields on ServiceConfigRequest [GH-10240]
    • 🌲 agent: fix logging output by removing leading whitespace from every log line [GH-10338]
    • 0️⃣ api: include the default value of raft settings in the output of /v1/agent/self [GH-8812]
    • areas: (Enterprise only) Revert to the 10s dial timeout used before connection pooling was introduced in 1.7.3.
    • areas: (Enterprise only) Selectively merge gossip_wan config for network areas to avoid attempting to enable gossip encryption where it was not intended or necessary.
    • autopilot: (Enterprise only) Fixed an issue where autopilot could cause a new leader to demote the wrong voter when redundancy zones are in use and the previous leader failed. [GH-10306]
    • 🚚 cli: removes the need to set debug_enabled=true to collect debug data from the CLI. Now the CLI behaves the same way as the API and accepts either an ACL token with operator:read, or debug_enabled=true. [GH-10273]
    • cli: snapshot inspect command would panic on invalid input. [GH-10091]
    • 🛠 envoy: fixes a bug where a large envoy config could cause the consul connect envoy command to deadlock when attempting to start envoy. [GH-10324]
    • http: fix a bug that caused the X-Consul-Effective-Consistency header to be missing on request for service health [GH-10189]
    • 0️⃣ local: agents will no longer persist the default user token along with a service or check. [GH-10188]
    • namespaces: (Enterprise only) fixes a problem where the logs would contain many warnings about namespaces not being licensed.
    • server: ensure that central service config flattening properly resets the state each time [GH-10239]
    • 🔒 ui: Add conditionals to lock sessions tab [GH-10121]
    • 💻 ui: De-duplicate tags in rendered tag listings [GH-10186]
    • 💻 ui: Don't render a DOM element for empty namespace descriptions [GH-10157]
    • 💻 ui: Reflect the change of Session API response shape for Checks in post 1.7 Consul [GH-10225]
    • 🚚 ui: Removes the extra rendering of namespace in service upstream list [GH-10152]
