  • Fix issue with heartbeat license messages spamming the logs with a license heatbeat every 60 minutes (if heartbeats are disabled) or every heartbeat period. Also fixed an issue with SAM issued licenses being immediately marked as expiring in 30 days and thus warning the customer that it was about to expire.
  • Heartbeats events are added for the Information level to provide more information regarding the working of agent. These new heartbeats are sent when any setting is changed from GUI and when the agent service status is changed.
  • This change modifies Agent behavior to not log any heartbeat if there is no SAM configured to connect.  If there is a SAM configured, then to log a heartbeat if the connection is lost for every 2 hours.
  • Objective matching in Snare support now supports wildcards properly. In existing release of Snare in some situations this wildcard matching can cause stack overflow crash. This issue is fixed in this release and stack overflow possibility is removed during wildcard matching.
  • The agent installer is capable of listing any license files it finds in the same directory as the agent executable.  This change updates the agent installer to include a "None" option, to not install any license file if present.
  • Fixed a bug where the Snare Agent would not import the SyslogPriority, SyslogFacility, CacheSizeSet values from an .INF (agent setup configuration file). Consequently CacheSizeEventLog was not used due to this bug.
  • An installation issue in the previous release of Snare may cause the installation to fail on some busy machines for 32-bit OS. Now installer properly checks the status of service operations and retries appropriately when needed.

  • Resolved issue where an incorrectly defined destination in Super Group Policy could prevent the agent from starting.

  • Some agent settings are machine specific i.e. Clientname, HostIP and HostGUID. There was an issue in the export settings command -x that was causing these machine specific settings to be exported into the .inf file and then can subsequently be loaded with /loadinf option during install. This issue is fixed in this release and now machine specific values are not exported into .inf file and even if .inf file is manually edited; these values are ignored during loadinf option.

  • Fixed an issue whereby the Snare Server (via AMC) could not retrieve the master configuration from an agent using digest authentication.
