Talos 1.11.0-alpha.1 (2025-06-05)
Welcome to the v1.11.0-alpha.1 release of Talos!
This is a pre-release of Talos
Please try out the release binaries and report any issues at
https://github.com/siderolabs/talos/issues.
IMA support removed
Talos now drops the IMA (Integrity Measurement Architecture) support. This feature was not used in Talos for any meaningful security purpose
and has historically caused performance issues. See #11133 for more details.
Qemu provisioner on MacOS
On MacOS talosctl cluster create command now supports the Qemu provisioner in addition to the Docker provisioner.
