Release v1.12.5 · hashicorp/consul

1.12.5 (September 20, 2022)

SECURITY:

auto-config: Added input validation for auto-config JWT authorization checks. Prior to this change, it was possible for malicious actors to construct requests which incorrectly pass custom JWT claim validation for the AutoConfig.InitialConfiguration endpoint. Now, only a subset of characters are allowed for the input before evaluating the bexpr. [GH-14577]
connect: Added URI length checks to ConnectCA CSR requests. Prior to this change, it was possible for a malicious actor to designate multiple SAN URI values in a call to the ConnectCA.Sign endpoint. The endpoint now only allows for exactly one SAN URI to be specified. [GH-14579]

IMPROVEMENTS:

envoy: adds additional Envoy outlier ejection parameters to passive health check configurations. [GH-14238]
metrics: add labels of segment, partition, network area, network (lan or wan) to serf and memberlist metrics [GH-14161]
snapshot agent: (Enterprise only) Add support for path-based addressing when using s3 backend.
ui: Reuse connections for requests to /v1/internal/ui/metrics-proxy/ [GH-14521]

BUG FIXES:

ca: Fixed a bug with the Vault CA provider where the intermediate PKI mount and leaf cert role were not being updated when the CA configuration was changed. [GH-14516]
cli: When launching a sidecar proxy with consul connect envoy or consul connect proxy, the -sidecar-for service ID argument is now treated as case-insensitive. [GH-14034]
connect: Fixed a bug where old root CAs would be removed from the primary datacenter after switching providers and restarting the cluster. [GH-14598]
connect: Fixed an issue where intermediate certificates could build up in the root CA because they were never being pruned after expiring. [GH-14429]
envoy: validate name before deleting proxy default configurations. [GH-14290]
rpc: Adds max jitter to client deadlines to prevent i/o deadline errors on blocking queries [GH-14233]
ui: Removed Overview page from HCP instalations [GH-14606]
