Highlights in 4.8.5

The FreeIPA team would like to announce FreeIPA 4.8.5 release!

It can be downloaded from http://www.freeipa.org/page/Downloads. Builds for Fedora 30-32 versions will be available soon.

Highlights in 4.8.5#

  • #8214 openDNSSEC 2.1 support

  • #8221 AJP connector protection for Dogtag/FreeIPA communication for CVE-2020-1938 mitigation. Fedora and RHEL do not force encrypted AJP connector by default with 9.0.31 but FreeIPA 4.8.5 will convert to encrypted AJP channel on upgrade or at a new deployment. Use of AJP is limited to localhost connections with integrated CA already.

  • Default authentication indicators are now documented in FreeIPA workshop, freeipa/freeipa-workshop

  • #6891 FreeIPA SELinux policy is now part of the upstream packaging and replaces distribution-wide policies.

  • New internal mechanism to promote Trust Agents in ipa-adtrust-install, to allow configuring schema compatibility plugin on remote replicas.

  • #8124 New “ipa-cacert-manage delete” command to allow pruning a CA certificate from LDAP store

Enhancements#

  • Backup / restore tools now check whether packages for various optional IPA master features installed before restore

  • IPA CLI commands for DNS operations display additional attributes and handle optional parameters when a record is removed

  • Additional checks for external CA certificate properties during installation

  • Minor content improvements in ipa-client-samba’s tool output

  • Preliminary support for building with MIT Kerberos 1.18

  • Increased test coverage in upstream test suite

  • Ability to test multi-host scenarios in upstream CI using Azure Pipelines

Known Issues#
