Anypoint Security Edge Release Notes

September 2020

Changes

  • Added WebSocket support for Anypoint Runtime Fabric and Anypoint Security Edge.

June 4, 2020

Known Issues

  • When you are modifying resource allocation values for Cores and Memory in Runtime Manager, deleting the initial value can cause the entire value to reset to 0.

    Workaround

    When modifying these values, replace the initial value rather than delete it.

March 9, 2020

Changes

  • The Runtime Manager > Inbound Messaging configuration user interface has been simplified by removing the option to specify the number of replicas. The number of replicas is now set to equal the number of controller nodes.

    If the number of replicas is currently set to fewer than the number of controllers, the next time you click the Deploy button for Runtime Manager > Inbound Messaging, the number of replicas is automatically changed to equal of the number of controller nodes. It is not necessary to issue a kubectl scale command.

  • The Inbound Traffic software for Anypoint Runtime Fabric 1.5.0 and later will be updated only after the Runtime Fabric version is upgraded. The Inbound Traffic deployment that follows the Runtime Fabric version upgrade will trigger the new version of the Inbound Traffic software to run.

    Runtime Fabric versions earlier than 1.5.0 will still trigger Inbound Traffic software version updates upon deployment, independently of Runtime Fabric version upgrades.

New Feature

Simplified TLS Configuration
When you configure inbound traffic for Anypoint Runtime Fabric, you can now upload a PEM or JKS file or import a TLS context from the secrets manager.

Fixed Issue

Fixed the issue that caused the Runtime Manager > Runtime Fabrics > Inbound Traffic page to erroneously display inbound traffic as disabled for users who were in a business group that inherited a Runtime Fabric instance.

Known Issue

If you try to change the TLS configuration on the Runtime Manager > Runtime Fabrics > Inbound Traffic page from using a PEM or JKS file to using a secrets manager, an error is returned.

Workaround

Follow these steps to make the update:

  1. In the Runtime Manager > Runtime Fabrics > Inbound Traffic page, use the Enable inbound traffic slider to disable traffic.

  2. After the deployment is complete, use the slider to reenable inbound traffic.

  3. In TLS Configuration, select Import from Secrets Manager.

December 7, 2019

Fixed Issue

Anypoint Runtime Fabric deployments failed on one or more controller nodes and did not provide failure status.

Runtime Fabric now displays success or failure statuses for each replica.

November 22, 2019

Fixed Issues

This release contains the following fixed issues:

  • Anypoint Runtime Fabric inbound load balancer now allows a maximum of 100 inbound headers and trailers in an HTTP request message by default.

  • The issue where streaming with a slow network caused a connection reset by peer error is fixed.

  • Runtime Fabric inbound load balancer no longer character encodes URI-reserved characters (per RFC-3986). An exception is that two forward slashes (/) are converted to one forward slash (/). Previously, the double forward slashes were retained.

    This change might require you to update applications that rely on the special character-to-character encoding behavior of previous releases.

Known Issues

Anypoint Runtime Fabric load balancer ignores client side cipher preferences and uses server side cipher preferences, which is not based on cipher strength.

Runtime Fabric load balancer does not allow you to order preferences; it only allows opting in and out of ciphers.

The preference order for Runtime Fabric load balancer cipher connections is:

  • TLS 1.3

    • TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

    • TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384

    • TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256

  • TLS 1.2

    • ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256

    • ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256

    • ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384

    • ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384

    • ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA1

    • ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA1

    • DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384

    • DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA256

    • AES256-GCM-SHA384

    • AES256-SHA256

    • ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA1

    • ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305

    • ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA1

    • ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305

    • DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256

    • DHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305

    • DHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256

    • AES128-GCM-SHA256

    • AES128-SHA256

November 9, 2019

X-ANYPOINT-WARNING TlsContext for target 'Anypoint security' contains deprecated ciphers which are ignored.

Fixed Issues

This release contains the following fixed issue:

Issue:

Previously users could not configure longer or shorter response timeouts for API requests (default 300 seconds); and longer or shorter write acknowledgements for data (default 10 seconds) received in API requests.

Fix:

To allow configuration of longer or shorter response times, new fields (Read Request Timeout and Write Request Timeout) have been added to Runtime Manager inbound traffic configuration in the Advanced Options section.

October 17, 2019

This release contains the following fixed issues:

  • When the DNS became unavailable, the internal load balancer in Anypoint Runtime Fabric failed to route messages to Mule apps or API gateways in some circumstances (for example, when a Runtime Fabric controller node was restarted).
    Updated DNS caching for entries stored in the Runtime Fabric internal load balancer or Edge gateway to not expire in the event DNS is unavailable.

  • Fixed an issue where the Runtime Fabric internal load balancer / Edge gateway pod would restart in certain cases when DNS was unavailable.

  • Fixed an issue with error message coresMax is greater than max value that occurred when enabling inbound traffic on Runtime Fabric.

  • The special characters $ and { in a URI were not accepted by the Runtime Fabric internal load balancer or Edge gateway as valid characters.
    These characters are now accepted.

September 4, 2019

This release contains the following fixed issue:

The OpenSSL 1.0.2s library used for inbound traffic processing for Runtime Fabric incoming messages has a known performance issue, which degrades TLS connection throughput. [SE-12030]

Solution:

The OpenSSL library used for inbound traffic processing is reverted to OpenSSL 1.0.2p to recover performance.

June 25, 2019

This release contains the following fixed issue:

Runtime Fabric inbound traffic service did not accept spaces in the private key passphrase and failed to properly serve inbound traffic. [SE-12071]

Solution:

The Runtime Fabric inbound traffic service now accepts a passphrase containing spaces and serves inbound traffic with such keys as expected.

June 18, 2019

This release contains the following fixed issue:

Client failed when the value of the connection header was neither keep-alive nor close. [SE-12165]
