Enhancements

  • The /grafana Controller endpoint is now access-controlled via login to the Controller control plane web application. To continue accessing Grafana, please ensure that you are logged in to the Controller’s web interface.
  • Updated the base Controller appliance operating system to reflect the latest upstream package updates.

    The table below lists relevant user-facing packages that may impact custom configuration settings on deployed Controllers:

    Package Old Version New Version
    dex 2.38.0 2.39.0
    grafana 10.2.4 10.2.6
    grafana-loki 2.9.4 2.9.6
    linux 6.1.78 6.1.82
    prometheus 2.49.0 2.49.1
    promtail 2.9.4 2.9.6

    When upgrading your Controller, please bear the following release notes in mind:

    • This update includes an update from Linux kernel version 6.1.78 to 6.1.82. System services should continue to operate normally across kernel updates, but if you require that the system run on the newer kernel, you should follow-up with any update actions with a system reboot to run on the newer kernel, but this step is not required.
    • Dex has been updated from version 2.38.0 to 2.39.0. Upstream release notes include important changelogs about LDAP connectors.

    At the time of writing, a scan of all operating system dependencies yielded no outstanding critical vulnerabilities requiring immediate action.

Fixes

  • Raised the default web frontend rate limit significantly to avoid spurious HTTP 429 errors. This setting remains configurable if issues persist in particular environments.
