The 2.13 series release notes contain important changes in this release series.
Security Fixes
- CRITICAL There was a remote code execution vulnerability that leveraged CVE-2018-11235 during the Pages build process. The Git package has been updated to address the vulnerability in the Pages build process. (updated 2018-05-30)
- Packages have been updated to the latest security versions.
- GitHub App user-to-server tokens generated for site-admins can access the internal GraphQL schema.
Bug Fixes
- When booted into recovery mode, using
ghe-set-password
to reset the Management Console password would fail unless the haproxy-internal-proxy
service was manually started.
collectd.log
contained superfluous Elasticsearch plugin warnings.
ghe-migrator
failed to import a GitHub.com migration archive when a pull request's requested reviewer was not a member of the organization.
- Commits pushed to a closed pull request were not included when fetching the pull request's tracking branch.
Changes
- Our unified Git proxy, babeld, now uses the BoringSSL cryptographic library to avoid lock contention issues in Git over SSH connections, which may have been encountered on large and busy appliances.
Known Issues
- Images uploaded to issues save with an absolute URL, so they can be broken if the hostname changes.
- On a freshly set up GitHub Enterprise without any users, an attacker could create the first admin user.
- Custom firewall rules aren't maintained during an upgrade.
- svn checkout may timeout while the repository data cache is being built. In most cases, subsequent svn checkout attempts will succeed.
- Git LFS tracked files uploaded through the web interface are incorrectly added directly to the repository.
- GitHub Enterprise clustering can not be configured without https.
- Pull request review comments are missing from an import with
ghe-migrator
.
- We incorrectly show a warning message, "You can't perform this action at this time", on team discussion pages. The message can be safely ignored.
- On a repository that's been locked for migration using
ghe-migrator
, project boards are not exported.
- Nameid-format matching on SAML response is too strict when value is "unspecified", which can cause an error with the "Another user already owns the account." message if the IdP changes
NameID
. (updated 2018-06-25)
- The import of protected branches with
ghe-migrator
fails when the creator of the protected branch no longer exists on the source instance. (updated 2018-10-31)
- The import of project boards with
ghe-migrator
fails when the creator of a card on the board no longer exists on the source instance. (updated 2018-11-21)
Thanks!
