Hi folks,

The Vault team is happy to announce the release of Vault 1.6.6!

There is security content pertaining to the Vault UI in this release; see the SECURITY section of the Changelog at [3] for details.

As a reminder, if you believe you have found a security issue in Vault, please responsibly disclose by emailing [security@hashicorp.com](mailto:security@hashicorp.com) and do not use the public issue tracker. Our security policy and our PGP key can be found at [2].

The key fixes and improvements in this release are:
