Vault 1.18.3, 1.17.10, and 1.16.14 released!

Hi all,

The Vault team is announcing the release of 1.18.3, as well as Vault Enterprise 1.17.10 and 1.16.14.

The Community Edition binary can be downloaded at [1]. Enterprise binaries are available to customers as well.

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

Notable changes in these releases are:

  • For secret rotations in the LDAP and Database secrets engines, Vault will respond to a rejected password update by generating a new password and re-attempting to update the password with the LDAP or database server.
  • We have updated the Go version to 1.23.3 for all three releases.
  • The PKI engine now validates issuer specified constraints (EKU, Name constraints, issuer name) for signing/issuing leaf certificates. For more information see PKI considerations

See the Changelog at [3] for the full list of improvements and bug fixes.

See the Feature Deprecation Notice and Plans page [8] for our upcoming feature deprecation plans.

Community [6] and Enterprise [7] Docker images will be available soon.


Upgrading

See [4] for general upgrade instructions and [5] for upgrade instructions and known issues.

As always, we recommend upgrading and testing this release in an isolated environment. If you experience any non-security issues, please report them on the Vault GitHub issue tracker or post to the Vault Discuss Forum at [9].

Sincerely, The Vault Team
