What's New

v0.80.0 adds security hardening and client reliability but is a version downgrade from the 0.81 canary.

Breaking Changes

Downgrading from the 0.81 canary to 0.80.0 may revert the canary's relay-churn and setup-key permission fixes.

New Features

Signed upload URLs and rate limiting for file upload endpoints.
Proxy rate limiter and proxy credentials limiter on management.
Cloud API spec added to the public OpenAPI definition.
Store filtering support by public ID.
Cross-account validation for agent network gateway assignments.

Improvements

Refused HTTP redirects on IdP clients to prevent open redirect attacks.
Revoked local Dex sessions on embedded IdP password changes.
Install script downloads now use HTTPS and a private temp directory.
Split store by table and sped up test store setup for performance.
Validated proxy cluster on Agent Network bootstrap to prevent cross-account bootstrapping.

Bug Fixes

Peers are now notified when the relay connection drops, preventing stale peer state.

Upgrade Notes

Treat this as a downgrade from a 0.81 canary to 0.80.0 and verify the canary's relay-churn and setup-key fixes are not lost. Review file-upload signing/rate-limiting and proxy limiter settings for client compatibility. Ensure clients can handle HTTPS-only install script downloads and private temp staging.
