0.8.0 (August 9th, 2017) SECURITY: We've added a note to the docs about the way the GitHub auth backend works as it may not be readily apparent that GitHub personal access tokens, which are used by the backend, can be used for unauthorized access if they are stolen from third party services and access to Vault is public. DEPRECATIONS/CHANGES: Database Plugin Backends: Passwords generated for these backends now enforce stricter password requirements, as opposed to the previous behavior of returning a randomized UUID. Passwords are of length 20, and have a A1a- characters prepended to ensure stricter requirements. No regressions are expected from this change. (For database backends that were previously substituting underscores for hyphens in passwords, this will remain the case.) Lease Endpoints: The endpoints sys/renew, sys/revoke, sys/revoke-prefix, sys/revoke-force have been deprecated and relocated under sys/leases. Additionally, the deprecated path sys/revoke-force now requires the sudo capability. Response Wrapping Lookup Unauthenticated: The sys/wrapping/lookup endpoint is now unauthenticated. This allows introspection of the wrapping info by clients that only have the wrapping token without then invalidating the token. Validation functions/checks are still performed on the token. FEATURES: Cassandra Storage: Cassandra can now be used for Vault storage CockroachDB Storage: CockroachDB can now be used for Vault storage CouchDB Storage: CouchDB can now be used for Vault storage SAP HANA Database Plugin: The databases backend can now manage users for SAP HANA databases Plugin Backends: Vault now supports running secret and auth backends as plugins. Plugins can be mounted like normal backends and can be developed independently from Vault. PROXY Protocol Support Vault listeners can now be configured to honor PROXY protocol v1 information to allow passing real client IPs into Vault. A list of authorized addresses (IPs or subnets) can be defined and accept/reject behavior controlled. Lease Lookup and Browsing in the Vault Enterprise UI: Vault Enterprise UI now supports lookup and listing of leases and the associated actions from the sys/leases endpoints in the API. These are located in the new top level navigation item "Leases". Filtered Mounts for Performance Mode Replication: Whitelists or blacklists of mounts can be defined per-secondary to control which mounts are actually replicated to that secondary. This can allow targeted replication of specific sets of data to specific geolocations/datacenters. Disaster Recovery Mode Replication (Enterprise Only): There is a new replication mode, Disaster Recovery (DR), that performs full real-time replication (including tokens and leases) to DR secondaries. DR secondaries cannot handle client requests, but can be promoted to primary as needed for failover. Manage New Replication Features in the Vault Enterprise UI: Support for Replication features in Vault Enterprise UI has expanded to include new DR Replication mode and management of Filtered Mounts in Performance Replication mode. Vault Identity (Enterprise Only): Vault's new Identity system allows correlation of users across tokens. At present this is only used for MFA, but will be the foundation of many other features going forward. Duo Push, Okta Push, and TOTP MFA For All Authenticated Paths (Enterprise Only): A brand new MFA system built on top of Identity allows MFA (currently Duo Push, Okta Push, and TOTP) for any authenticated path within Vault. MFA methods can be configured centrally, and TOTP keys live within the user's Identity information to allow using the same key across tokens. Specific MFA method(s) required for any given path within Vault can be specified in normal ACL path statements.
