• Armory Operator 1.4.0 or later

Security

Armory scans the codebase as we develop and release software. Contact your Armory account representative for information about CVE scans for this release.

This release includes a security fix. For more information, see the Critical Notification that Armory’s Support Team sent out on 14 December 2021, contact your Armory account rep, or see this (login required) Support article: https://support.armory.io/support?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0010520.

Breaking changes

Halyard deprecation

Halyard is no longer supported for installing Armory Enterprise 2.27.0 and later. Use the Operator. For more information, see Halyard Deprecation.

Plugin compatibility

Due to changes in the underlying services, older versions of some plugins may not work with Armory Enterprise 2.27.x or later.

The following table lists the plugins and their required minimum version:

Known issues

Bake failures

The Packer version included with Rosco disregards package overrides that use the -var-file= option. This may cause bakes to fail.

Affected versions: 2.22.2 and later

SpEL expressions and artifact binding

There is an issue where it appears that SpEL expressions are not being evaluated properly in artifact declarations (such as container images) for events such as the Deploy Manifest stage. What is actually happening is that an artifact binding is overriding the image value.

Workaround:

2.27.x or later: Disable artifact binding by adding the following parameter to the stage JSON: enableArtifactBinding: false.

2.26.x or later: Change the artifact binding behavior in spec.spinnakerConfig.profiles.clouddriver (Operator) or clouddriver-local.yml (Halyard) to the following, which causes artifacts to only bind the version when the tag is missing:

kubernetes:
  artifact-binding:
    docker-image: match-name-only

This setting only binds the version when the tag is missing, such as image: nginx without a version number.

Affected versions: 2.26.x and later

Pipelines as Code GitHub comments

There is a known issue where Pipelines as Code can generate hundreds of comments in a GitHub Pull Request (PR) when updates are made, such as when a module that is used by multiple dinghyfiles gets changed. These comments may prevent the GitHub UI from loading or related API calls may lead to rate limiting.

Affected versions: 2.26.x and later

Workaround:

You can either manually resolve the comments so that you can merge any PRs or turn the notifications that Pipelines as Code sends to GitHub.

For information about about how to disable this functionality, see GitHub Notifications.
