Release 2.19.07    

What’s New in Release 2.19.07

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that was preventing authentication to China region ECR images in the docker executor.
  • Removed the recursive chown from startup of the fileserverd service. In instances of heavy usage this was causing the startup process to take a long time, or in some cases, startup was blocked.

Known Issues

  • If any changes have been made to your networking configuration from the default, you should run the following steps to ensure you can use SSH to inspect your builds (for further information on SSH reruns see the SSH Rerun Guide):
    • For customers using AWS, make sure that you have the latest Launch Configuration configured for Nomad clients, and that exiting Nomad clients were spun up using the Launch Configuration.
    • On each Nomad Client machine, create /etc/circleci/public-ipv4
    • This file should contain the public (if applicable) or private IP of the nomad client

Release 2.19.02    

What’s New in Release 2.19.02

Fixes

  • In the LDAP login flow we now use an anonymous form to POST LDAP auth state, rather than sending it as a GET parameter. Previously, when a user authenticated using LDAP, their username and password were sent in plaintext as part of a query parameter in a GET request. As requests are over HTTPS, this left usernames and passwords in request logs, etc. This issue is now fixed.

  • The Admin Users page now has links to the builds of each user.
  • The API has a new endpoint /api/v1/admin/licensing that returns information about the number of seats available, number being used, when the license will expire, and how many inactive users there are in the system.
