AI Summary

Teleport v16.5.10 is a maintenance release that improves desktop session security, hardware key validation, and observability. The update includes a fix for redundant MFA prompts, enhanced hardware key validation, new Prometheus metrics for cache health, and a Go runtime update to 1.23.9.

Key Highlights

  • Exposed Teleport service cache health via Prometheus metrics for better observability
  • Updated Go to version 1.23.9 for runtime improvements and bug fixes

New Features
