Fluent Bit versions earlier than v4.0.13 series are affected by security vulnerabilities. The specific plugins and their associated vulnerabilities are following:

Notes:

  1. There is no secure FluentBit upstream package available for Ubuntu 16, 18, and 20. If you are running on any of these distributions, make sure you remove the affected input plugins to protect from vulnerabilities.
  2. We are working to provide secure packages for SLES 12.5 and 15.4 as soon as possible. Until we roll out the safe packages for these distributions, we recommend removing the affected plugins to protect from vulnerabilities.
  3. We are working to provide a secure package for Debian 10 as soon as possible. Until we roll out a safe package for this distribution, we recommend removing the affected plugins to protect from vulnerabilities.

Infrastructure agent v1.70.0

A new version of the agent has been released. Follow standard procedures to update the Infrastructure agent. New Relic recommends that you upgrade the agent regularly and at a minimum every 3 months. As of this release, the oldest supported version is Infrastructure agent 1.58.0.

Changed

  • feat(oci): add Oracle Cloud-specific tags to hosts running on OCI in https://github.com/newrelic/infrastructure-agent/pull/2121

    Starting with version 1.70.0, the New Relic Infrastructure agent now automatically collects metadata for VMs running in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The agent collects the following details:

    • displayName
    • host.id
    • oci.availabilityDomain
    • oci.region
    • oci.compartmentId
    • oci.shape
    • oci.imageId

    You can use this metadata as tags for entity search or as attributes in NRQL queries. The host.id attribute is also used by the New Relic Cloud Integration for OCI to attach cloud metadata to the correct host entity.

    This feature is enabled by default to ensure consistency with existing metadata on other cloud providers. If you need to disable this feature, you can use the configuration settings disable_cloud_metadata or disable_cloud_instance_id.

    Background: For many years already, New Relic Infrastructure Agents installed on a VM running in AWS, Azure or GCP had the equivalent metadata detail collection, and this behavior is enabled by default. For consistency across different clouds, the OCI feature is using the same configuration items and the same default behavior.
