Release Notes for Snare Epilog Agent v5.0.1
Snare Epilog Agent v5.0.1 was released on 3rd February 2017.
Enhancements
- The agent will now alert using a notice on invalid file of directory path in Log Configuration when configuring to monitor a file that does not exist.
- Key IDs on the Agent /license pages is now styled to show alpha characters in black and numeric characters in a red tone. This is to make it easier for those that have problems seeing the different shades of grey.
- Licenses may now list a KeyID of 0 (zero).
Security Updates
- Maintenance update for OpenSSL to patch to OpenSSL-1.0.2j.
Bug Fixes
- The Statistics page will no longer reset when the agent syncs with the SAM without any settings change. It will correctly display 24 hours worth of data in the graph.
- The AccessKeySet registry setting will no longer contain a valid hash if not set during the install.
- Fixed the handling of the conversion of logging levels in Group Policy when upgrading from v4 to v5.
- There was an issue that if a Snare agent and SAM are running on the same machine then Snare agent can be licensed even without configuring the SAM details in them. This issue is fixed in this release and now the SAM details should be included in the Snare agent to get it licensed from SAM.
- Host validation updated for Restrict IP when comma separated list of hosts is used.
- Fix a bug where the SAM and Certificate Section of an inf file were not imported correctly by the installer.
- There was an issue the way agent handles the missing registry keys due to a corrupt configuration or a user manually removing registry keys. Due to this issue, if an agent cannot open a registry key then it just ignores it; causing snare get an error. This issue is fixed in this release. Now if snare cannot open a registry key then it creates the key with default values so that registry values can be written in newly created key. Snare logs an error if it cannot create the registry key if there is a permission problem.
