Talos 1.14.0-alpha.2 (2026-06-26)

Welcome to the v1.14.0-alpha.2 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.

DNS over TLS (DoT) and DNS over HTTPS (DoH) Support

Talos now supports DNS over TLS (DoT) and DNS over HTTPS (DoH) for secure DNS resolution.
These features allow Talos to encrypt DNS queries and responses, enhancing privacy and security for DNS traffic.
The DNS protocol can be configured on a per-name server basis in the ResolverConfig document, allowing for flexible configuration of DNS resolution.

noexec on EPHEMERAL (/var)

The EPHEMERAL volume (/var) is now mounted with noexec in addition to the existing nosuid and nodev,
blocking binary execution from /var.

Workloads that exec binaries placed under /var will break.
For example, Longhorn v1's instance-manager exec's engine binaries the engine-image DaemonSet drops under /var/lib/longhorn/engine-binaries/,
which now fails with permission denied. Affected users can opt out via a VolumeConfig document: 

apiVersion: v1alpha1
kind: VolumeConfig
name: EPHEMERAL
mount:
  secure: false

NOTE: Setting secure: false will also disable nosuid and nodev, which may have security implications. Use with caution.

Upgrade note: apply this VolumeConfig patch before upgrading, otherwise affected workloads will fail after the next reboot. Longhorn v2 (SPDK data engine) runs the data plane inside the instance manager process and is not affected.

Apply Configuration Modes

The '--mode=reboot' option has been removed from the talosctl apply-config command; by default, configuration is applied without a reboot.
Most configuration changes don't require a reboot; the documentation lists the changes that do.

Btrfs Support

Talos now supports mounting and provisioning btrfs filesystem for user volumes and existing volumes.

Support for btrfs is enabled by installing btrfs system extension.

Containerd NRI

Talos no longer disables NRI (Node Resource Interface) for the CRI containerd instance by default, so NRI is available
to use without any machine config patches.

To bring back the old behavior of NRI disabled by default, use the following machine config patch: 

machine:
  files:
    - content: |
        [plugins]
          [plugins."io.containerd.nri.v1.nri"]
             disable = true
      path: /etc/cri/conf.d/20-customization.part
      op: create

Default Installer Image

The default installer image has been updated to use the Image Factory.
The ghcr.io/siderolabs/installer image is no longer published with releases; use the Image Factory installer image instead.

DHCP Search Domains

DHCPv4 search domains are now applied to the resolver configuration.

Encryption Discards

Volume encryption now supports an allowDiscards option (disabled by default) which passes TRIM/discard requests
through to the underlying device when the encrypted volume is opened.

This only enables passing discards through to the underlying device; Talos does not perform any fstrim/discard operation by itself.

etcd

Talos is now compatible with etcd v3.6.x only (the default etcd version was 3.6.x since Talos v1.11).
The default version is 3.7.0+ now.

etcd now serves its HTTP-only endpoints (/metrics, /health, the gRPC-gateway JSON API) on a dedicated
listener on port 2383, while the client port 2379 serves gRPC only. This keeps gRPC off Go's net/http
HTTP/2 server, avoiding watch-stream starvation under TLS (see etcd-io/etcd#15402, golang/go#58804,
etcd-io/etcd#21605).

Upgrade note: etcd metrics and the HTTP health endpoint are no longer reachable on 2379; scrape them on
port 2383 instead (same client mTLS as before). etcd gRPC clients and the Talos health check are unaffected.

Firewall might need to be adjusted to block the port 2383 if previously 2379 was blocked.

If --listen-metrics-urls was customized, the metrics should not move.

Filesystem Trim

Talos can now periodically trim (the equivalent of the fstrim command) mounted filesystems which support trimming,
discarding unused blocks. This is useful for SSDs and thin-provisioned storage.

Trimming is opt-in via a new FilesystemTrimConfig document which sets the global trim interval: 

apiVersion: v1alpha1
kind: FilesystemTrimConfig
interval: 168h0m0s # one week

The default machine configuration for Talos 1.14+ includes a FilesystemTrimConfig document with a default trim interval of one week,
so trimming is enabled by default for eligible filesystems. For cluster which were upgraded from older versions, the FilesystemTrimConfig document will be missing,
so trimming will be disabled by default until the document is added.

When the document is present, Talos builds a stable schedule (hashed by node ID and volume ID, so trims are spread out
across volumes and across nodes in a cluster) and trims eligible volumes (ready disk/partition volumes with a
trim-capable filesystem; for encrypted volumes only when allowDiscards is set).

The trim interval can be overridden or disabled per-volume via a trim block on the volume documents
(VolumeConfig, UserVolumeConfig, ExistingVolumeConfig, ExternalVolumeConfig): 

trim:
  enabled: true
  interval: 24h0m0s

Flannel CNI

Talos now configures Flannel with the EnableNFTables option enabled, which uses nftables native backend instead of iptables-nft compatibility layer.

Host DNS Configuration

HostDNS configuration was moved from the v1alpha1 config .machine.features.hostDNS field to the new hostDNS in the ResolverConfig document.

HTTP Probe Support

Talos now supports HTTP network probes, allowing for monitoring of HTTP endpoints.
HTTP responses with status 200-399 are considered successful, while connection and transport errors are treated as failures.

Image Cache Configuration

Talos now supports a new ImageCacheConfig document for configuring the Image Cache feature, replacing the old machine.features.imageCache field in the v1alpha1 config.
Old configuration is still supported for backwards compatibility.

Kernel Multi-document Configuration

Talos introduces new multi-document configuration for kernel parameters (sysctl and sysfs settings), replacing the old v1alpha1 config fields.
The old configuration is still supported for backwards compatibility, but new deployments should use the new documents.

If both old and new configuration sources are used, the new multi-document configuration takes precedence over the old v1alpha1 config on conflicting fields.

List of changes:

  • Deprecated .machine.sysctls in the v1alpha1 config; use the SysctlConfig document for kernel sysctl configuration.
  • Deprecated .machine.sysfs in the v1alpha1 config; use the SysfsConfig document for sysfs configuration.

Kernel Module Status

Talos now reports the status of both dynamically loaded, and built-in kernel modules.

The LoadedKernelModule resource has been deprecated and superseded by the new KernelModuleStatus resource.

Kubernetes Multi-document Configuration

Talos introduces new multi-document Kubernetes configuration, which allows for more flexible and modular configuration of Kubernetes components.
Talos still supports the old v1alpha1 config for backwards compatibility, but new features and fields will only be available in the new multi-document format.
Talos introduces support for configuring multiple discovery service endpoints.
The kube-proxy is now using configuration to manage its settings instead of command line arguments (with new KubeProxyConfig document).

List of changes:

  • Deprecated .cluster.secretboxEncryptionSecret in the v1alpha1 config; use the KubeEtcdEncryptionConfig document for full etcd encryption configuration.
  • Deprecated .cluster.apiServer in the v1alpha1 config; use the KubeAPIServerConfig, KubeAdmissionControlConfig, KubeAuditPolicyConfig, KubeAuthenticationConfig and KubeAuthorizerConfig documents for kube-apiserver configuration.
  • Deprecated .cluster.controllerManager in the v1alpha1 config; use the KubeControllerManagerConfig document for kube-controller-manager configuration.
  • Deprecated .cluster.scheduler in the v1alpha1 config; use the KubeSchedulerConfig document for kube-scheduler configuration.
  • Deprecated .cluster.proxy in the v1alpha1 config; use the KubeProxyConfig document for kube-proxy configuration.
  • Deprecated .cluster.network in the v1alpha1 config; use the KubeNetworkConfig document for Kubernetes network configuration; Flannel can be configured using the KubeFlannelCNIConfig document.
  • Deprecated .cluster.discovery in the v1alpha1 config; use the DiscoveryServiceConfig document for discovery service configuration. The v1alpha1 config and DiscoveryServiceConfig are mutually exclusive.

LVM Logical Volume Creation

Logical volumes can now be declared with a new LVMLogicalVolumeConfig multi-doc config kind. Each document
names a logical volume, its parent volumeGroup, a type (linear, raid0, raid1 or raid10) and a
maxSize (absolute, e.g. 50GiB, or a percentage of the volume group, e.g. 80%). RAID layouts accept
optional mirrors (raid1/raid10, default 1) and stripes (raid0/raid10, default: all available physical
volumes) fields. Once the volume group is assembled the logical volume is created via lvcreate.

Raising maxSize grows an existing logical volume via lvextend; percentage-sized volumes also grow when
their volume group is extended. Shrinking is never performed (it risks data loss) - a request to reduce the
size surfaces an LVMValidationError instead. Removal stays an explicit operation via the LVMService LV
remove RPC (talosctl wipe lv).

LVM Status

Talos now provides detailed LVM status information, allowing for better monitoring and management of LVM volumes.
New resources LVMPhysicalVolumeStatus, LVMVolumeGroupStatus, and LVMLogicalVolumeStatus expose PV, VG, and LV details.
DiscoveredVolume resources for logical volumes are listed by their kernel name (e.g. dm-0). To resolve the <vg>/<lv> for a given device, use the Disks or BlockSymlinks resources, which carry the udev-managed symlinks (e.g. /dev/disk/by-id/dm-name-<vg>-<lv>).

LVM Volume Group Creation

Talos can now create and grow LVM Volume Groups declaratively through a new LVMVolumeGroupConfig multi-doc
config kind. Each document names a Volume Group and a CEL volumeSelector over the disk inventory; matched
disks are initialised as Physical Volumes (pvcreate) and aggregated into the requested VG (vgcreate).
Newly matched disks added to an existing VG are attached via vgextend.

Reconciliation is strictly additive and safe-by-default.

LVM Wipe

Talos now provides the ability to securely wipe LVM metadata from logical volumes, volume groups, and physical volumes.
This feature allows for selective wiping of logical volumes, volume groups, and physical volumes.

With talosctl wipe lv/vg/pv <name>, users can wipe LVM metadata from a specific logical volume, volume group, or physical volume.

NTS for Time Synchronization

Talos now supports Network Time Security (NTS) for secure time synchronization.
This feature enhances the security of NTP by providing cryptographic authentication of time sources.

NTS is enabled by default (without any configuration sources) for the default time.cloudflare.com time server
NTS can be enabled for custom time servers via the new useNTS field in the TimeServerConfig document.

ICMP send_redirects Disabled by Default

Talos now sets net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects=0 and net.ipv4.conf.default.send_redirects=0 by default,
preventing the node from emitting ICMP redirect messages. This aligns with CIS Benchmark recommendations and
does not affect normal Kubernetes pod or service traffic. Nodes that deliberately act as L3 gateways relying
on ICMP redirects can override this via machine.sysctls.

Support Bundle Encryption

The talosctl support command now encrypts support bundles using the age encryption tool, enhancing the security of support data.
The default set of recipients includes the 'siderolabs' GitHub organization members, but it can be overridden with custom recipients.

TLS 1.3 Minimum Version

Talos now runs etcd and kube-apiserver with a minimum TLS version of 1.3, improving security by leveraging the latest TLS features and cipher suites.
Custom settings for cipher suites have been removed, as they are ignored when TLS 1.3 is used, which simplifies configuration and ensures the use of modern, secure defaults.

Component Updates

Linux: 6.18.36
Kubernetes: 1.36.2
containerd: 2.3.2
etcd: 3.7.0-rc.0-0
Flannel: v0.28.5
runc: 1.5.0-rc.3
CoreDNS: 1.14.2

Talos is built with Go 1.26.4.
