  • v1.9.10 Changes

    September 27, 2021

    🔋 FEATURES:

    • sso/oidc: (Enterprise only) Add support for providing acr_values in OIDC auth flow [GH-11026]

    👌 IMPROVEMENTS:

    • audit-logging: (Enterprise Only) Audit logs will now include select HTTP headers in each logs payload. Those headers are: Forwarded, Via, X-Forwarded-For, X-Forwarded-Host and X-Forwarded-Proto. [GH-11107]
    • ⚡️ connect: update supported envoy versions to 1.16.5 [GH-10961]
    • telemetry: Add new metrics for the count of KV entries in the Consul store. [GH-11090]

    🐛 BUG FIXES:

    • ui: (Enterprise Only) Fix saving intentions with namespaced source/destination [GH-11095]

  • v1.9.9 Changes

    August 27, 2021

    KNOWN ISSUES:

    • 🚀 tls: The fix for CVE-2021-37219 introduced an issue that could prevent TLS certificate validation when intermediate CA certificates used to sign server certificates are transmitted in the TLS session but are not present in all Consul server's configured CA certificates. This has the effect of preventing Raft RPCs between the affected servers. As a work around until the next patch releases, ensure that all intermediate CA certificates are present in all Consul server configurations prior to using certificates that they have signed.

    🔒 SECURITY:

    👌 IMPROVEMENTS:

    • areas: (Enterprise only) Add 15s timeout to opening streams over pooled connections.
    • areas: (Enterprise only) Apply backpressure to area gossip packet ingestion when more than 512 packets are waiting to be ingested.

    • 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]
