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 - 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. - 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 the file finder on a repository page, typing the backspace key within the search field would result in search results being listed multiple times and cause rendering problems. - 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]' 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. - 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: - After upgrading to {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} 3.3, {% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} may fail to start automatically. To resolve this issue, connect to the appliance via SSH and run the `ghe-actions-start` command. - 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. - '{% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} storage settings cannot be validated and saved in the {% data variables.enterprise.management_console %} when "Force Path Style" is selected, and must instead be configured with the `ghe-actions-precheck` command line utility.' - '{% data reusables.release-notes.ghas-3.4-secret-scanning-known-issue %}'
