AI Summary
Quickwit 0.9.2 is a security patch release addressing vulnerabilities in Kafka client parameters and columnar dictionary handling. It also modifies the Kerberos authentication behavior for Kafka sources.
Key Highlights
- Security patch release addressing CVEs related to Kafka client command execution and oversized dictionaries.
- Restriction of Kafka client parameters to prevent unauthorized command execution or library loading.
- Kafka Kerberos sources no longer run `kinit` automatically, requiring manual ticket renewal.
Breaking Changes
- Kafka sources using Kerberos (`sasl.mechanisms: GSSAPI`) no longer run `kinit` automatically. Users must set the `QW_KAFKA_KINIT_CMD` environment variable or manage ticket renewal externally.
Full Release Notes
Quickwit 0.9.2 is a security patch release. ### Security - Restrict Kafka client params that execute commands or load libraries ([GHSA-g85h-2988-4cv8](https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit/security/advisories/GHSA-g85h-2988-4cv8)). - Reject oversized columnar dictionaries during merges ([Tantivy GHSA-7pph-m7rw-cqhv](https://github.com/quickwit-oss/tantivy/security/advisories/GHSA-7pph-m7rw-cqhv)). Users running Quickwit versions 0.4.0 through 0.9.1 should upgrade to 0.9.2. Kafka sources that use Kerberos (`sasl.mechanisms: GSSAPI`) no longer run `kinit` automatically. If you relied on automatic ticket renewal, set the `QW_KAFKA_KINIT_CMD` environment variable or renew tickets outside Quickwit.
