fleetdm/fleet fleet-v4.55.0 on GitHub

Fleet 4.55.0 (Aug 9, 2024)

NOTE: Beginning with v4.55.0, Fleet no longer supports MySQL 5.7 because it has reached end of life. The minimum version supported is MySQL 8.0.36.

Endpoint Operations

Added support for generating fleetd packages for Linux ARM64.
Added new fleetctl package --arch flag.
Updated fleetctl package command to remove the --version flag. The version of the package can be controlled by --orbit-channel flag.
Updated maintenance window descriptions to update regularly to match the failing policy description/resolution.
Updated maintenance windows using Google Calendar so that calendar events are now recreated within 30 seconds if deleted or moved to the past.
- Fleet server watches for potential changes for up to 1 week after original event time. If event is moved forward more than 1 week, then after 1 week Fleet server will check for event changes once every 30 minutes.
- NOTE: These near real-time updates may add additional load to the Google Calendar API, so it is recommended to use API usage alerts or other monitoring methods.

Device Management

Integrated Escrow Buddy to add enforcement of FileVault during the MacOS Setup Assistant process for hosts that are
enrolled into teams (or no team) with disk encryption turned on. Thank you homebysix and team!

Fixed path that was incorrect for the download software installer package endpoint GET /software/titles/:software_title_id/package.
Fixed a bug that set last_enrolled_at during orbit re-enrollment, which caused osquery enroll failures when FLEET_OSQUERY_ENROLL_COOLDOWN is set.
Fixed the "Available for install" filter in the host's software page so that installers that were requested to be installed on the host (regardless of installation status) also show up in the list.
Fixed a styling issue in the Controls > OS Settings > disk encryption table.

Fixed the "Available for install" filter in the host's software page so that installers that were requested to be installed on the host (regardless of installation status) also show up in the list.

Fleet's agent

The following version of Fleet's agent (fleetd) support the latest changes to Fleet:

orbit-v1.30.0
fleet-desktop-v1.30.0 (included with Orbit)
fleetd-chrome-v1.3.1

While newer versions of fleetd still function with older versions of the Fleet server (and vice versa), Fleet does not actively test these scenarios and some newer features won't be available.
