0.9.0 (2022/06/20)

New and Improved

  • PKI Workers: This release introduces a new worker type pki which
    authenticates to Boundary using a new certificate-based method, allowing for
    worker deployment without using a shared KMS.
  • Credentials: This release introduces a new credential store type static,
    which simply takes in a user-supplied credential and stores it (encrypted)
    directly in Boundary. Currently, the static credential store can hold
    credentials of type username_password. These credentials can act as
    credential sources for targets, similar to credential libraries from the
    vault credential store, and thus can be brokered to users at session
    authorization time. PR
  • boundary connect Credential Brokering Integration: we have extended integration
    into the boundary connect helpers. A new sshpass style has been added to the
    ssh helper, when used, if the credential contains a username/password and sshpass
    is installed, the command will automatically pass the credentials to the ssh process.
    Additionally, the default ssh helper will now use the username of the brokered credential.
    PR.
  • controller: Improve response time for listing sessions.
    This also creates a new periodic job that will delete terminated
    sessions after 1 hour.
    See Deprecations/Changes for some additional details.
    PR.
  • event filtering: Change event filters to use lowercase and snake case for data
    elements like the rest of Boundary filters do.
  • ui: Use include_terminated flag for listing sessions.
    PR.
  • ui: Add Quick Setup onboarding guide.
    PR.

Bug Fixes

  • The plugin execution_dir configuration parameter is now respected.
    PR.
  • ui: Fix Users page not updating fields correctly.
    PR.

Deprecations/Changes

  • Targets: Removes support for credential libraries with respect to Target resources.
    The library fields and actions were deprecated in Boundary 0.5.0,
    please use credential sources instead. See changelog referenced above for
    more details (PR).
  • Credential Libraries: The user_password credential type has been renamed to
    username_password to remove any inconsistency over what the credential type is.
    All existing user_password typed credential libraries will be migrated to
    username_password (PR).
  • controller: Change the default behavior of the session list endpoint
    to no longer include sessions in a terminated state and introduces
    a new query parameter/cli flag to include the terminated sessions.
    This also removes the connection information from the list response.
    PR.
  • Anonymous user permissions: In order to reduce the risk of accidental and
    unintended granting of permissions to anonymous users, the permissions system
    now only allows certain actions on certain resources to be assigned to the
    anonymous user; currently these are the same permissions as assigned in
    Boundary's default role permissions. If other use-cases arise this list can be
    expanded. See the
    documentation

    for more details.

0.7.4 (2022/01/18)

Deprecations/Changes

  • In newly-created scopes, if default role creation is not disabled, the roles
    will now contain a grant to allow listing targets. This will still be subject
    to listing visibility rules, so only targets the user is granted some action
    on (such as authorize-session) will be returned.

New and Improved

  • config: The description field for workers now supports being set
    from environment variables or a file on disk
    (PR)
  • config: The max_open_connections field for the database field in controllers now supports being set
    from environment variables or a file on disk
    (PR)
  • config: The execution_dir field for plugins now supports being set from environment variables
    or a file on disk.(PR)
  • config: Add support for reading worker controllers off of environment
    variables as well as files. (PR)
  • config: The description field for controllers now supports being set

    addresses. (PR)
  • controllers/workers: Add client IP to inbound request information which is included in
    Boundary events (PR)
  • host: Plugin-based host catalogs will now schedule updates for all
    of its host sets when its attributes are updated.
    (PR)
  • scopes: Default roles in newly-created scopes now contain a grant to allow
    listing targets. (PR)
  • plugins/aws: AWS plugin based hosts now include DNS names in addition to the
    IP addresses they already provide.

    host sources on a target. (PR)

Security

  • Boundary now uses Go 1.17.5 to address a security vulnerability (CVE-2021-44716) where
    an attacker can cause unbounded memory growth in a Go server accepting HTTP/2 requests.
    See the Go announcement for
    more details. (PR)

0.7.1 (2021/11/18)

Bug Fixes

  • db: Fix panic invoking the CLI on Windows. Some changes to how the binary is
    initialized resulted in running some functions on every startup that looked
    for some embedded files. However, Go's embed package does not use OS-specific
    path separators, so a mismatch between path separators caused a failure in the
    function. (PR)

0.7.0 (2021/11/17)

Deprecations/Changes

  • tls: Boundary's support for TLS 1.0/1.1 on the API listener was broken. Rather
    than fix this, we are simply not supporting TLS 1.0/1.1 as they are insecure.

New and Improved

  • Boundary now supports dynamic discovery of host resources using our (currently
    internal) new plugin system. See the
    documentation for configuration
    instructions. Currently, only Azure and AWS are supported, but more providers
    will be following in future releases.
  • workers: The existing worker connection replay prevention logic has been
    enhanced to be more robust against attackers that have decryption access to
    the shared worker-auth KMS key
    (PR)

Bug Fixes

  • tls: Support TLS 1.2 for more clients. This was broken for some clients due to
    a missing mandated cipher suite of the HTTP/2 (h2) specification that could
    result in no shared cipher suites between the Boundary API listener and those
    clients. (PR)
  • vault: Fix credential store support when using Vault namespaces
    (Issue,
    PR)
