Vault 1.17.1, 1.16.5, and 1.15.11 released!

[Tom Chwojko-Frank]

Hi all,

The Vault team is announcing the release of 1.17.1, as well as Vault 1.16.5 and 1.15.11 Enterprise.

The Community Edition binary can be downloaded at [1]. Enterprise binaries are available to customers as well.

As a reminder, if you believe you have found a security issue in Vault, please responsibly disclose by emailing secu...@hashicorp.com and do not use the public issue tracker. Our security policy and our PGP key can be found at [2].

The major features and improvements in these releases are:

• Vault Agent: We fixed an issue where Vault Agent and Vault Proxy would consume excessive CPU during normal operation. This issue was only present in 1.17.0.

See the Changelog at [3] for the full list of improvements and bug fixes.

See the Feature Deprecation Notice and Plans page [8] for our upcoming feature deprecation plans.

Community [6] and Enterprise [7] Docker images will be available soon.

Upgrading

See [4] for general upgrade instructions and [5] for upgrade instructions and known issues.

As always, we recommend upgrading and testing this release in an isolated environment. If you experience any non-security issues, please report them on the Vault GitHub issue tracker or post to the Vault Discuss Forum at [9].

Sincerely, The Vault Team
