Release Note

v1.5.6-beta2 Release Notes - Dec 15, 2022

v1.5.6-beta2 is a beta release, providing updates for the following issues in the Fabric CA:

  • Builds native arm64 CA binaries for linux and darwin
  • Builds multi-platform CA docker images for arm64 and amd64 with buildx
  • Adds debug information for a mysterious idemix error message

Dependencies

Fabric CA v1.5.6 has been tested with the following dependencies:

  • Go 1.18.8
  • Alpine 3.17 (for Docker images)

Changes, Known Issues, and Workarounds

None.

Known Vulnerabilities

  • FABC-174 Commands can be manipulated to delete identities or affiliations

    This vulnerability can be resolved in one of two ways:

    1. Use HTTPS (TLS) so that the authorization header is not in clear text.

    2. The token generation/authentication mechanism was improved to optionally prevent
      token reuse. As of v1.4 a more secure token can be used by setting environment variable:

    FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3=false

    However, it cannot be set to false until all clients have
    been updated to generate the more secure token and tolerate
    FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3=false.
    The Fabric CA client has been updated in v1.4 to generate the more secure token.
    The Fabric SDKs will be updated by v2.0 timeframe to generate the more secure token,
    at which time the default for Fabric CA server will change to:
    FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3=false

Resolved Vulnerabilities

None.
