CHANGES:
* audit: Token TTL and issue time are now provided in the auth portion of
audit logs. [GH-9091]
* auth/gcp: Changes the default name of the entity alias that gets created
to be the role ID for both IAM and GCE authentication. [GH-99]
* core: Remove the addition of newlines to parsed configuration when using
integer/boolean values [GH-8928]
* cubbyhole: Reject reads and writes to an empty ("") path. [GH-8971]
* storage/gcs: The credentials_file config option has been removed. The
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable or default
credentials may be used instead [GH-9424]
* storage/raft: The storage configuration now accepts a new max_entry_size
config that will limit the total size in bytes of any entry committed via
raft. It defaults to "1048576" (1MiB). [GH-9027]
* token: Token creation with custom token ID via id will no longer allow
periods (.) as part of the input string. The final generated token value
may contain periods, such as the s. prefix for service token
indication. [GH-8646]
* token: Token renewals will now return token policies within the
token_policies , identity policies within identity_policies, and the full
policy set within policies. [GH-8535]
FEATURES:
* Monitoring: We have released a Splunk App [9] for Enterprise
customers. The app is accompanied by an updated monitoring guide and a
few new metrics to enable OSS users to effectively monitor Vault.
* Password Policies: Allows operators to customize how passwords are
generated for select secret engines (OpenLDAP, Active Directory, Azure,
and RabbitMQ).
* Replication UI Improvements: We have redesigned the replication UI to
highlight the state and relationship between primaries and secondaries
and improved management workflows, enabling a more holistic understanding
of multiple Vault clusters.
* Resource Quotas: As of 1.5, Vault supports specifying a quota to rate
limit requests on OSS and Enterprise. Enterprise customers also have
access to set quotas on the number of leases that can be generated on a
path.
* OpenShift Support: We have updated the Helm charts to allow users to
install Vault onto their OpenShift clusters.
* Seal Migration: We have made updates to allow migrations from auto unseal
to Shamir unseal on Enterprise.
* AWS Auth Web Identity Support: We've added support for AWS Web
Identities, which will be used in the credentials chain if present.
* Vault Monitor: Similar to the monitor command for Consul and Nomad, we
have added the ability for Vault to stream logs from other Vault servers
at varying log levels.
* AWS Secrets Groups Support: IAM users generated by Vault may now be added
to IAM Groups.
* Integrated Storage as HA Storage: In Vault 1.5, it is possible to use
Integrated Storage as HA Storage with a different storage backend as
regular storage.
* OIDC Auth Provider Extensions: We've added support to OIDC Auth to
incorporate IdP-specific extensions. Currently this includes expanded
Azure AD groups support.
* GCP Secrets: Support BigQuery dataset ACLs in absence of IAM endpoints.
