The Beats are lightweight processes, written in Go, that you install
on your servers to capture all sorts of operational data like logs,
operating system metrics or network packet data, and to send it to
Elasticsearch, either directly or via Logstash, so it can be
visualized with Kibana.
Version 1.0.9 (2016-12-20)
Security fixes:
A flaw in the cryptographic authentication scheme in Borg
allowed an attacker to spoof the manifest. See Pre-1.0.9 manifest
spoofing vulnerability above for the steps you should take.
borg check: When rebuilding the manifest (which should only be
needed very rarely) duplicate archive names would be handled
on a âfirst come first serveâ basis, allowing an attacker to
apparently replace archives.
Bug fixes:
borg check:
rebuild manifest if itâs corrupted
skip corrupted chunks during manifest rebuild
fix TypeError in integrity error handler, #1903, #1894
fix location parser for archives with @ char (regression introduced in 1.0.8), #1930
fix wrong duration/timestamps if system clock jumped during a create
fix progress display not updating if system clock jumps backwards
fix checkpoint interval being incorrect if system clock jumps
Other changes:
docs:
add python3-devel as a dependency for cygwin-based installation
clarify extract is relative to current directory
FAQ: fix link to changelog
markup fixes
tests:
test_get_(cache|keys)_dir: clean env state, #1897
get back pytestâs pretty assertion failures, #1938

fixed build_usage not generating includes for debug commands
Version 1.0.9rc1 (2016-11-27)
Bug fixes:
files cache: fix determination of newest mtime in backup set
(which is used in cache cleanup and led to wrong âAâ [added]
status for unchanged files in next backup), #1860.
borg check:
fix incorrectly reporting attic 0.13 and earlier archives as corrupt
handle repo w/o objects gracefully and also bail out early if repo is completely empty, #1815.
fix tox/pybuild in 1.0-maint
at xattr module import time, loggers are not initialized yet
New features:
borg umount <mountpoint> exposed already existing umount code
via the CLI api, so users can use it, which is more consistent
than using borg to mount and fusermount -u (or umount) to
un-mount, #1855.
implement borg create ânoatime ânoctime, fixes#1853

Also - add licence
FEATURES:
- Keyring API: A new /v1/operator/keyring HTTP endpoint was added that
allows for performing operations such as list, install, use, and
remove on the encryption keys in the gossip keyring.
- Monitor API: A new /v1/agent/monitor HTTP endpoint was added to allow
for viewing streaming log output from the agent, similar to the consul
monitor command.
- Reload API: A new /v1/agent/reload HTTP endpoint was added for
triggering a reload of the agent's configuration.
- Leave API: A new /v1/agent/leave HTTP endpoint was added for causing
an agent to gracefully shutdown and leave the cluster (previously,
only force-leave was present in the HTTP API).
- Bind Address Templates (beta): Consul agents now allow
go-sockaddr/template syntax to be used for any bind address
configuration (advertise_addr, bind_addr, client_addr, and others).
- Complete ACL Coverage (beta): Consul 0.8 will feature complete ACL
coverage for all of Consul.
IMPROVEMENTS:
- agent: Defaults to ?pretty JSON for HTTP API requests when in -dev
mode.
- agent: Updated Circonus metrics library and added new Circonus
configration options for Consul for customizing check display name and
tags.
- agent: Added a checksum to UDP gossip messages to guard against packet
corruption.
- agent: Check whether a snapshot needs to be taken more often (every 5
seconds instead of 2 minutes) to keep the raft file smaller and to
avoid doing huge truncations when writing lots of entries very quickly.
- agent: Allow gossiping to suspected/recently dead nodes.
- agent: Changed the gossip suspicion timeout to grow smoothly as the
number of nodes grows.
- agent: Added a deprecation notice for Atlas features to the CLI and
docs.
- agent: Give a better error message when the given data-dir is not a
directory.
BUG FIXES:
- agent: Fixed a panic when SIGPIPE signal was received.
- api: Added missing Raft index fields to CatalogService structure.
- api: Added missing notes field to AgentServiceCheck structure.
- api: Changed type of AgentServiceCheck.TLSSkipVerify from string to
bool.
- api: Added new HealthChecks.AggregatedStatus() method that makes it
easy get an overall health status from a list of checks.
- api: Changed type of KVTxnOp.Verb from string to KVOp.
- cli: Fixed an issue with the consul kv put command where a negative
value would be interpreted as an argument to read from standard input.
- ui: Fixed an issue where extra commas would be shown around service
tags.
- ui: Customized Bootstrap config to avoid missing font file references.
- ui: Removed "Deregister" button as removing nodes from the catalog
isn't a common operation and leads to lots of user confusion.

Changelog:
What's New
VMware Tools is a suite of utilities that enhances the performance of the virtual machine's guest operating system and improves management of the virtual machine. Read about the new and enhanced features in this release below:
vmware-namespace-cmd: Added vmware-namespace-cmd command line utility that exposes set/get commands for the namespace database in the VMX.
gtk3 support: open-vm-tools has been updated to use gtk3 libraries.
Common Agent Framework (CAF): CAF provides the basic services necessary to simplify secure and efficient management of agents inside virtual machines.
xmlsec1: Changed guest authentication to xmlsec1.
FreeBSD: Changes to support open-vm-tools on FreeBSD.
Automatic Linux Kernel Modules: Automatic rebuilding of kernel modules is enabled by default.
New sub-command: Added a new sub-command to push updated network information to the host on demand.
udev-rules: Added udev rules for configuring SCSI timeout in the guest.
Ubuntu 16.10: Fixes for running on Ubuntu 16.10.
Quiesced Snapshot: Fix for quiesced snapshot failure leaving guest file system quiesced.
Internationalization
open-vm-tools 10.1.0 supports the following languages:
English
French
German
Spanish
Italian
Japanese
Korean
Simplified Chinese
Traditional Chinese
Compatibility
open-vm-tools 10.1.0 is compatible with all supported versions of VMware vSphere, VMware Workstation 12.5 and VMware Fusion 8.5.
same process. The idea is that this will cause poll(2) in the main
thread to exit with the reaper pipe readable, and do child cleanup here.
Unfortunably, is the child also has a write pipe back to the
parent (as e.g. with pygrub), the loop in afterpoll_internal() may see the
POLLHUP event on this pipe before the POLLIN even on the reaper pipe, and
this will be considered as an error (from e.g. pygrub).
work around by filtering POLLHUP events here
bump PKGREVISION
Makefile.{linux,macos} MAKE_FILEs will set their MANPREFIX differently to the
one defined in Makefile.bsd)
No functional changes intended for Makefile.bsd MAKE_FILE OPSYSs
(and so no PKGREVISION bump).
- Revise versioning system to be date-based.
- Pedantic changes to capitalisation of byte/kilobyte/megabyte etc.
- Clarify the --cgi usage a bit, and give an example.
- Rearrange documentation of -S, -L and -D.
This adds a dependency on devel/colordiff.
Changelog for this version:
* Greatly improve speed for large archives by fixing O(n^2) complexity for
archive member lookup.
- There is still O(n^2) complexity for archive member extraction, but this
is less noticeable for various reasons and would require more complexity
to fix, so for now is left as a task for the future.
* Text output: add coloured diff support via colordiff(1).
* Html-dir output: add +/- buttons to fold sub-diffs (i.e. toggle their
visibility) as well as the whole diff itself. As with similar features in
other programs, the effect affects all descendants if you shift-click.

D-Bus 1.10.14 (2016-11-28)
==
The “Well, other bands know more than three chords” release.
Fixes:
• Work around an undesired effect of the fix for CVE-2014-3637
(fd.o #80559), in which processes that frequently send fds, such as
logind during a flood of new PAM sessions, can get disconnected for
continuously having at least one fd "in flight" for too long;
dbus-daemon interprets that as a potential denial of service attack.
The workaround is to disable that check for uid 0 process such as
logind, with a message in the system log. The bug remains open while
we look for a more general solution.
(fd.o #95263, LP#1591411; Simon McVittie)
• Don't run the test test-dbus-launch-x11.sh if X11 autolaunching
was disabled at compile time. That test is not expected to work
in that configuration. (fd.o #98665, Simon McVittie)
Most of the NetBSD specific patches were re-applied due to code
syntax changes.
Upstream changes in 5.6.2:
- collectd: A compile error on AIX has been fixed: "MSG_DONTWAIT" is not
available on AIX.
- collectd: The capability checking has been rewritten to be more
portable.
- collectd.conf(5): Various typos have been fixed.
- collectd-tg: Incorrect usage of "nanosleep()" has been fixed which
caused the tool to sleep (almost) indefinitely.
- Build system: Detection of the Java environment has been made
deterministic to allow for reproducible builds.
- Build system: Detection of the Lua headers has been improved.
- APC UPS plugin: Unavailable metrics are now skipped instead of
reported as 0 (zero).
- Modbus plugin: Build issues on FreeBSD have been fixed.
- OpenVPN plugin: Gracefully handle empty configurations.
- PowerDNS plugin: The "recursor command" has been fixed so PowerDNS can
correctly parse all requested fields.
- Write Graphite and AMQP plugins: A bug that could lead to a missing
null-termination has been fixed.
- Write HTTP plugin: A logic error when checking the correctness of the
data set has been fixed.
- Write Kafka plugin: The "Key Random" config option has been fixed.
- Write Kafka plugin: Support for librdkafka 0.9.0 has been added.
- Write Riemann plugin: Build issues on Solaris have been fixed.
- ZFS ARC plugin: A duplicate metric has been removed.
Changes include:
- autocreate working properly ... finally (?)
- per destination pre and post SEND commands (complementary to the pre and post snap commands)
- send delay property
Changes in 8.23.0 (abridged):
- KSI signatures: removed SHA2-224 hash algorithm
This is considered insecure and no longer supported by the underlying
KSI library. If still used within a configuration, a descriptive error
message is emitted during config processing.
- imfile: new timeout feature for multi-line reads
- omfile: improve robustness against network file system failures
in case of failure, a close and re-open is tried, which often solves the
issue (and wasn't handle before this patch).
- pmaixforwardedfrom: support for AIX syslogd -s option
- omelasticsearch: add ability to specify max http request size
- omelasticsearch: high availability addressing of ElasticSearch cluster
allow to specify an array of servers, which is tried until a working
one is found (and given up only if none works).

fixes omelasticsearch logs response from ElasticSearch 5.0 _bulk
endpoint as error
- omhiredis: add dynakey attribute.
- omtcl: new contributed module
- RainerScript: provide a capability to set environment variables
via 'global(environment="var=val")' config statement.
- lookup tables: improved error checking
- queue subsystem: add configuration parameter "queue.samplinginterval"
- bugfix core: errmsg.LogError now switches to dfltErrLogger just before shutdown
- bugfix core: fixed un-freed memory in non-transactional action using string-passing
- rsgtutil: option to specify KSI publications file certificate constraints
- omprog: bugfixes and enhancements
- bugfix imfile: ReopenOnTruncate processing, file open processing
- bugfix omlibdbi: libdbi-driver-sqlite3/2 requires to provide a path to
database split into two strings:
* absolute path, where the database file sits
* database filename itself.
