Vault 1.18.4, 1.17.11, and 1.16.15 released!

Vault 1.18.4, 1.17.11, and 1.16.15 released!

Hi all,

The Vault team is announcing the release of 1.18.4, as well as Vault Enterprise 1.17.11 and 1.16.15.

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:

  • Database Plugins (1.18.4 Enterprise) When importing static database roles into Vault, a new option to skip the immediate rotation allows client applications to transition to Vault as their source of truth without disruption, and without requiring maintenance windows.
  • Client Counts - We addressed an issue caused by deleted mounts that resulted in discrepancies between the Activity Export API and the Counters API

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
