1.15.4

on GitHub

We are pleased to announce the release of Cilium v1.15.4.

This release includes the option to configure Node map size, additional detail when using cilium-dbg bpf metrics list, a fix to an issue with overlapping keys that may have affected the ability to recover from a full Service map, and performance improvements to the Connection Tracking implementation. Bugfixes include improved behavior for overlapping and restored DNS policies, a fix to a race condition in Service updates for L7 LB, and a fix to the retry logic in the cilium health controllers.

Security Advisories

This release addresses a security vulnerability. For more information, see GHSA-j654-3ccm-vfmm

Summary of Changes

Minor Changes:

• Add "node-map-max" to allow configuring nodemap size. (Backport PR #31727, Upstream PR #31407, @tommyp1ckles)
• Add line numbers and file names to all metrics in 'cilium-dbg bpf metrics list' (Backport PR #31558, Upstream PR #30972, @ti-mo)

• feat: Add the http return code to metric api_processed_total (Backport PR #31890, Upstream PR #31227, @vipul-21)
• Fix overlapping keys in agent-side service BPF map cache used for retries. In rare cases this bug may have caused retrying of a failed BPF map update for a services entry to be skipped leading to a missing entry. This may have, for example, adversely affected recovering from a full BPF service map after excess services were removed. (Backport PR #31890, Upstream PR #29581, @xyz-li)
• Skip overlay traffic in the BPF SNAT processing, and thus reduce pressure on the BPF Connection tracking and NAT maps. (Backport PR #31785, Upstream PR #31082, @julianwiedmann)

Bugfixes:

• Avoid drops with "CT: Unknown L4 protocol" for non-ICMP/TCP/UDP traffic, caused by an error check in the BPF NAT engine. (Backport PR #31890, Upstream PR #31820, @julianwiedmann)

• cni: Allow text-ts log format value (Backport PR #31890, Upstream PR #31686, @sayboras)
• Fix a bug that could cause local packet delivery to be skipped, leading to lower performance, when IPsec was enabled and --devices provided. (Backport PR #31601, Upstream PR #31345, @pchaigno)
• Fix incorrect reporting of the number of etcd lock leases in cilium-dbg status. (Backport PR #31890, Upstream PR #31781, @giorio94)
• fix: Delegated ipam not configure ipv6 if ipv6 disabled in agent (Backport PR #31727, Upstream PR #31104, @tamilmani1989)
• Fixed a race condition in service updates for L7 LB. (Backport PR #31860, Upstream PR #31744, @jrajahalme)
• fqdn: Fix minor restore bug that causes false negative checks against a restored DNS IP map. (#31870, @nathanjsweet)
• fqdn: Fixed bug that caused DNS Proxy to be overly restrictive on allowed DNS selectors. (Backport PR #31727, Upstream PR #31328, @nathanjsweet)
• gateway-api: Ensure hostname check when set on both the HTTPRoute and the Gateway Listener (Backport PR #31769, Upstream PR #30686, @cjvirtucio87)
• gateway-api: fixed RequestRedirect picks wrong port with multiple listeners (Backport PR #31769, Upstream PR #31361, @chaunceyjiang)
• gateway-api: shorten the length of the value of the svc's label. (Backport PR #31769, Upstream PR #31292, @chaunceyjiang)
• ingress/gateway-api: sort virtual hosts in CEC (Backport PR #31739, Upstream PR #31493, @mhofstetter)
• ingress/gateway-api: stable envoy listener filterchain sort-order (Backport PR #31601, Upstream PR #31572, @mhofstetter)
• metric: Avoid memory leak/increase in cilium-agent (Backport PR #31890, Upstream PR #31714, @sayboras)

CI Changes:

• ci-e2e: Add e2e test with WireGuard + Host Firewall (Backport PR #31727, Upstream PR #31594, @qmonnet)
• ci/ipsec: Print more info to debug credentials removal check failures (Backport PR #31727, Upstream PR #31652, @qmonnet)
• deflake endpointmanager tests (Backport PR #31601, Upstream PR #31488, @bimmlerd)
• gh/workflows: Add IPsec key rotation action and use it in ci-eks / ci-ipsec-e2e (Backport PR #31428, Upstream PR #29704, @brb)
• Make BPF unit tests reproducible (Backport PR #31663, Upstream PR #31526, @ti-mo)
• Make testdata build output more stable by reducing header includes (Backport PR #31663, Upstream PR #31644, @ti-mo)
