netdata v1.23.2 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-07-16 // almost 4 years ago

  • Netdata v1.23.2

    🚀 Release v1.23.2 of the Netdata Agent is a patch for one significant issue.

    📜 PR #9491 fixed a buffer overrun vulnerability in Netdata's JSON parsing code. This vulnerability could be used to crash Agents remotely, and in some circumstances, could be used in an arbitrary code execution (ACE) exploit.

    ⚡️ We strongly encourage all Netdata users to update their nodes to v1.23.2 as soon as possible.

    🚀 This release also contains additional bug fixes and improvements.
