Changes

  • Added support for pushing additional federated trust domains from caCertificates to the peer SAN validator. (Issue #41666)

  • Fixed overwriting label istio.io/rev in injected gateways when istio.io/rev=<tag>. (Issue #33237)

  • Fixed an issue where you could not disable tracing in ProxyConfig. (Issue #31809)

  • Fixed admission webhook fails with custom header value format. (Issue #42749)

  • Fixed a bug that would cause unexpected behavior when applying access logging configuration based on the direction of traffic. With this fix, access logging configuration for CLIENT or SERVER will not affect each other. (Issue #43371)

  • Fixed an issue where EnvoyFilter for Cluster.ConnectTimeout was affecting unrelated Clusters. (Issue #43435)

  • Fixed a bug in istioctl analyze where some messages are missed when there are services with no selector in the analyzed namespace. (PR #43678)

  • Fixed resource namespace resolution for istioctl commands. (Issue #43691)

  • Fixed an issue where auto allocated service entry IPs change on host reuse. (Issue #43858)

  • Fixed an issue where RBAC updates were not sent to older proxies after upgrading istiod to 1.17. (Issue #43785)

  • Fixed reconciliation logic in the validation webhook controller to rate-limit the retries in the loop. This should drastically reduce churn (and generated logs) in cases of misconfiguration. (Issue #32210)

  • Fixed an issue causing VMs using auto-registration to ignore labels other than those defined in a WorkloadGroup. (PR #44012)

  • Fixed istioctl experimental wait has undecipherable message when PILOT_ENABLE_CONFIG_DISTRIBUTION_TRACKING is not enabled. (Issue #42967)
