date: '2022-05-17' sections: security_fixes: - '**MEDIUM:** A security issue in nginx resolver was identified, where an attacker who could forge UDP packets from the DNS server could cause 1-byte memory overwrite, resulting in worker process crashes or other potentially damaging impacts. The vulnerability has been assigned [CVE-2021-23017](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-23017).' - Updated the `actions/checkout@v2` and `actions/checkout@v3` actions to address new vulnerabilities announced in the [Git security enforcement blog post](https://github.blog/2022-04-12-git-security-vulnerability-announced/). - Packages have been updated to the latest security versions. bugs: - In some cluster topologies, the `ghe-cluster-status` command left behind empty directories in `/tmp`. - SNMP incorrectly logged a high number of `Cannot statfs` error messages to syslog. - When adding custom patterns and providing non-UTF8 test strings, match highlighting was incorrect. - LDAP users with an underscore character (`_`) in their user names can now login successfully. - For instances configured with SAML authentication and built-in fallback enabled, built-in users would get stuck in a “login” loop when attempting to sign in from the page generated after logging out. - After enabling SAML encrypted assertions with Azure as identity provider, the sign in page would fail with a `500` error. - Character key shortcut preferences weren't respected. - Attempts to view the `git fsck` output from the `/stafftools/repositories/:owner/:repo/disk` page would fail with a `500 Internal Server Error`. - When using SAML encrypted assertions, some assertions were not correctly marking SSH keys as verified. - Videos uploaded to issue comments would not be rendered properly. - When using GitHub Enterprise Importer to import a repository, some issues would fail to import due to incorrectly configured project timeline events. - When using `ghe-migrator`, a migration would fail to import video file attachments in issues and pull requests. - 'The Releases page would return a 500 error when the repository has tags that contain non-ASCII characters. [Updated: 2022-06-10]' - 'Upgrades would sometimes fail while migrating dependency graph data. [Updated: 2022-06-30]' changes: - In high availability configurations, clarify that the replication overview page in the Management Console only displays the current replication configuration, not the current replication status. - The Nomad allocation timeout for Dependency Graph has been increased to ensure post-upgrade migrations can complete. - When enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %}, clarify that using a Shared Access Signature (SAS) token as connection string is not currently supported. - Support bundles now include the row count of tables stored in MySQL. - When determining which repository networks to schedule maintenance on, we no longer count the size of unreachable objects. - The `run_started_at` response field is now included in the [Workflow runs API](/rest/actions/workflow-runs) and the `workflow_run` event webhook payload. known_issues: - On a freshly set up {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} instance without any users, an attacker could create the first admin user. - Custom firewall rules are removed during the upgrade process. - Git LFS tracked files [uploaded through the web interface](https://github.com/blog/2105-upload-files-to-your-repositories) are incorrectly added directly to the repository. - Issues cannot be closed if they contain a permalink to a blob in the same repository, where the blob's file path is longer than 255 characters. - When "Users can search GitHub.com" is enabled with {% data variables.product.prodname_github_connect %}, issues in private and internal repositories are not included in {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %} search results. - The {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} npm registry no longer returns a time value in metadata responses. This was done to allow for substantial performance improvements. We continue to have all the data necessary to return a time value as part of the metadata response and will resume returning this value in the future once we have solved the existing performance issues. - Resource limits that are specific to processing pre-receive hooks may cause some pre-receive hooks to fail. - | After registering a self-hosted runner with the `--ephemeral` parameter on more than one level (for example, both enterprise and organization), the runner may get stuck in an idle state and require re-registration. [Updated: 2022-06-17] - After upgrading to {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} 3.4 releases may appear to be missing from repositories. This can occur when the required Elasticsearch index migrations have not successfully completed. - '{% data reusables.release-notes.ghas-3.4-secret-scanning-known-issue %}' - | GitHub Pages builds may time out on instances in AWS that are configured for high availability.
