All notable changes to Salt will be documented in this file.
This changelog follows keepachangelog format, and is intended for human consumption.
This project versioning is similar to Semantic Versioning, and is documented in SEP 14.
Versions are MAJOR.PATCH
.
- Check that the return data from the cloud create function is a dictionary before attempting to pull values out. #61236
- Ensure NamedLoaderContext's have their value() used if passing to other modules #62477
- add documentation note about reactor state ids. #63589
- Added support for
test=True
to thefile.cached
state module #63785 - Updated
source_hash
documentation and added a log warning whensource_hash
is used with a source other thanhttp
,https
andftp
. #63810 - Fixed clear pillar cache on every highstate and added clean_pillar_cache=False to saltutil functions. #64081
- Fix dmsetup device names with hyphen being picked up. #64082
- Update all the scheduler functions to include a fire_event argument which will determine whether to fire the completion event onto the event bus. This event is only used when these functions are called via the schedule execution modules. Update all the calls to the schedule related functions in the deltaproxy proxy minion to include fire_event=False, as the event bus is not available when these functions are called. #64102, #64103
- Default to a 0 timeout if none is given for the terraform roster to avoid
-o ConnectTimeout=None
when usingsalt-ssh
#64109 - Disable class level caching of the file client on
SaltCacheLoader
and properly use context managers to take care of initialization and termination of the file client. #64111 - Fixed several file client uses which were not properly terminating it by switching to using it as a context manager
whenever possible or making sure
.destroy()
was called when using a context manager was not possible. #64113 - Fix running setup.py when passing in --salt-config-dir and --salt-cache-dir arguments. #64114
- Moved /etc/salt/proxy and /lib/systemd/system/[email protected] to the salt-minion DEB package #64117
- Stop passing
**kwargs
and be explicit about the keyword arguments to pass, namely, tocp.cache_file
call insalt.states.pkg
#64118 - lgpo_reg.set_value now returns
True
on success instead ofNone
#64126 - Make salt user's home /opt/saltstack/salt #64141
- Fix cmd.run doesn't output changes in test mode #64150
- Move salt user and group creation to common package #64158
- Fixed issue in salt-cloud so that multiple masters specified in the cloud are written to the minion config properly #64170
- Make sure the
salt-ssh
CLI calls it'sfsclient.destroy()
method when done. #64184 - Stop using the deprecated
salt.transport.client
imports. #64186 - Add a
.pth
to the Salt onedir env to ensure packages in extras are importable. Bump relenv to 0.12.3. #64192 - Fix
lgpo_reg
state to work with User policy #64200 - Cloud deployment directories are owned by salt user and group #64204
lgpo_reg
state now enforces and reports changes to the registry #64222
-
Remove and deprecate the orchestration key from salt.runner and salt.wheel return data. To get it back, set features.enable_deprecated_orchestration_flag master configuration option to True. The flag will be completely removed in Salt 3008 Argon. #59917
-
Removed distutils and replaced with setuptools, given distutils is deprecated and removed in Python 3.12 #60476
-
Removed
runtests
targets fromnoxfile.py
#62239 -
Removed the PyObjC dependency.
This addresses problems with building a one dir build for macOS. It became problematic because depending on the macOS version, it pulls different dependencies, and we would either have to build a macos onedir for each macOS supported release, or ship a crippled onedir(because it would be tied to the macOS version where the onedir was built). Since it's currently not being used, it's removed. #62432
-
Removed
SixRedirectImporter
from Salt. Salt hasn't shippedsix
since Salt 3004. #63874
- renamed
keep_jobs
, specifying job cache TTL in hours, tokeep_jobs_seconds
, specifying TTL in seconds.keep_jobs
will be removed in the Argon release #55295 - Removing all references to napalm-base which is no longer supported. #61542
- The 'ip_bracket' function has been moved from salt/utils/zeromq.py in salt/utils/network.py #62009
- The
expand_repo_def
function insalt.modules.aptpkg
is now deprecated. It's only used insalt.states.pkgrepo
and it has no use of being exposed to the CLI. #62485 - Deprecated defunct Django returner #62644
- Deprecate core ESXi and associated states and modules, vcenter and vsphere support in favor of Salt VMware Extensions #62754
- Removing manufacture grain which has been deprecated. #62914
- Removing deprecated utils/boto3_elasticsearch.py #62915
- Removing support for the now deprecated _ext_nodes from salt/master.py. #62917
- Deprecating the Salt Slack engine in favor of the Salt Slack Bolt Engine. #63095
salt.utils.version.StrictVersion
is now deprecated and it's use should be replaced withsalt.utils.version.Version
. #63383
- More intelligent diffing in changes of file.serialize state. #48609
- Move deprecation of the neutron module to Argon. Please migrate to the neutronng module instead. #49430
umask
is now a global state argument, instead of only applying tocmd
states. #57803- Update pillar.obfuscate to accept kwargs in addition to args. This is useful when passing in keyword arguments like saltenv that are then passed along to pillar.items. #58971
- Improve support for listing macOS brew casks #59439
- Add missing MariaDB Grants to mysql module.
MariaDB has added some grants in 10.4.x and 10.5.x that are not present here, which results in an error when creating.
Also improved exception handling in
grant_add
which did not log the original error message and replaced it with a generic error. #61409 - Use VENV_PIP_TARGET environment variable as a default target for pip if present. #62089
- Disabled FQDNs grains on macOS by default #62168
- Replaced pyroute2.IPDB with pyroute2.NDB, as the former is deprecated #62218

- Removed GPG_1_3_1 check #62895
- Requisite state chunks now all consistently contain
__id__
,__sls__
andname
. #63012 - netapi_enable_clients option to allow enabling/disabling of clients in salt-api. By default all clients will now be disabled. Users of salt-api will need to update their master config to enable the clients that they use. Not adding the netapi_enable_clients option with required clients to the master config will disable salt-api. #63050
- Stop relying on
salt/_version.py
to write Salt's version. Instead usesalt/_version.txt
which only contains the version string. #63383 - Set enable_fqdns_grains to be False by default. #63595

When using preq on a state, then prereq state will first be run with test=True to determine if there are changes. When there are changes, the state with the prereq option will be run prior to the prereq state. If this state fails then the prereq state will not run and the state output uses the test=True run.

Add
fileserver_interval

Remove and deprecate the orchestration key from salt.runner and salt.wheel return data. To get it back, set features.enable_deprecated_orchestration_flag master configuration option to True. The flag will be completely removed in Salt 3008 Argon. #59917
-
Removed distutils and replaced with setuptools, given distutils is deprecated and removed in Python 3.12 #60476
-
Removed
runtests
targets fromnoxfile.py
#62239 -
Removed the PyObjC dependency.
This addresses problems with building a one dir build for macOS. It became problematic because depending on the macOS version, it pulls different dependencies, and we would either have to build a macos onedir for each macOS supported release, or ship a crippled onedir(because it would be tied to the macOS version where the onedir was built). Since it's currently not being used, it's removed. #62432
-
Removed
SixRedirectImporter
from Salt. Salt hasn't shippedsix
since Salt 3004. #63874

- Add missing MariaDB Grants to mysql module.
MariaDB has added some grants in 10.4.x and 10.5.x that are not present here, which results in an error when creating.

. #63012 - netapi_enable_clients option to allow enabling/disabling of clients in salt-api. By default all clients will now be disabled. Users of salt-api will need to update their master config to enable the clients that they use. Not adding the netapi_enable_clients option with required clients to the master config will disable salt-api. #63050
- Stop relying on
salt/_version.py
to write Salt's version. Instead usesalt/_version.txt
which only contains the version string. #63383 - Set enable_fqdns_grains to be False by default. #63595

-
Removed
runtests
targets fromnoxfile.py
#62239 -
Removed the PyObjC dependency.
This addresses problems with building a one dir build for macOS. It became problematic because depending on the macOS version, it pulls different dependencies, and we would either have to build a macos onedir for each macOS supported release, or ship a crippled onedir(because it would be tied to the macOS version where the onedir was built). Since it's currently not being used, it's removed. #62432

Users of salt-api will need to update their master config to enable the clients that they use. Not adding the netapi_enable_clients option with required clients to the master config will disable salt-api. #63050
- Stop relying on
salt/_version.py
to write Salt's version. Instead usesalt/_version.txt
which only contains the version string. #63383 - Set enable_fqdns_grains to be False by default. #63595

The 2004 release of Windows 10 introduced a bug in the InstallationBehavior COM object where you can no longer get properties from that object. Calls to this object are now wrapped in a try/except block with sane defaults when it fails to read attributes.
Additionally, some pre-flight checks have been added to the win_wua module to make sure Windows Update can actually run. (#57762)
-
Changed get_repo in yumpkg.py to use "repo" as first parameter. This fixes #57778, a bug were every run of pkgrepo.managed state were marked as changed because the get_repo did fail to detect a previously applied run. (#57778)
-
Raise SaltClientError in parse_host_port insted of ValueError so it is caught and handled properly when the minion is connecting to the master. (#57789)
-
Fixed issue with the return dictionary from the workgroup() function in the salt.states.win_system module. This resulted in a windows-based minion logging an error and could also interfere with a highstate being applied. (#57790)
-
Fixes broken block_device_mapping and block_device_mapping_v2 type checks in the OpenStack cloud driver. Salt was looking for a dict and the shade library was looking for a list of dicts. This made it impossible to use those params. (#57802)

Fixed incorrect parsing of
Set-Cookie
response headers. (#57829) -
When using yumpkg, report stdout when stderr is redirected to stdout. (#57862)

Convert disks of volume type to file or block disks on Xen (#58333)
-
Apparently Apple is using both "10.16" and "11" for versioning Big Sur, depending on where you look. The mac_softwareupdate module uses a different regex depending on OS version, and the determination was based on the osrelease_info grain. This results in a Big Sur machine not using the correct regex; osrelease_info[1] is 0 for Big Sur.
This change simply adds an additional clause to the if statement to handle osmajorrelease > 10. (#58340)
-
Fixed zmq salt-call hang!
Some objects from the 3rd party module zmq fail to deconstruct if left to the GC when Python exits. This is because the objects get destroyed out of order. This only happens on some platforms like ubuntu 20.04 and some versions of FreeBSD. We fixed this hang by deconstructing all zmq objects in the right order before we exit salt-call. (#58364)
-

salt-api will now work on Windows platforms with limited support. You will be able to configure the
rest_cherrypy
module, withoutpam
external authentication and without ssl support.Example configuration:
.. code-block:: yaml external_auth: auto: saltuser: -.* rest_cherrypy: host: 127.0.0.1 port: 8000 (#49949)
-
Added
execution_timeout
support tochocolatey.installed
state (#50449) -
Add new verify_ssl option to file modules. This allows a user to not validate the server certificate for HTTPS source and source hash's. (#52663)

Memory Tuning Support which allows much greater control of memory allocation (#57639)
-
Add output filter to saltcheck to only display test failures (#57788)
-
Add profile block and profiling of import_* jinja calls.
# cat /srv/salt/example.sls {%- profile as 'local data' %} {%- set local_data = {'counter': 0} %} {%- for i in range(313377) %} {%- do local_data.update({'counter': i}) %} {%- endfor %} {%- endprofile %} test: cmd.run: - name: |- printf 'local data: %s' '{{ local_data['counter'] }}'
When working with a very large codebase, it becomes more important to trace inefficiencies in state and pillar render times. The
profile
jinja block enables the user to get finely detailed information on the most time consuming jinja expressions in the codebase.Especially as the codebase grows and the amount of minions increases, tracking down expensive expressions becomes imperative otherwise the resource burden for even just maintaining highstate becomes unmanageable. (#57849)
-

- Allow all ssh kwargs as sanitized kwargs for SSH client. (#59748)
- Fix runners that broke when patching for CVE-2021-25281
- Fix issue with runners in SSE
- CVE-2020-28243 - Fix local privilege escalation in the restartcheck module. (CVE-2020-28243)
- CVE-2020-28972 - Ensure authentication to vcenter, vsphere, and esxi server
validates the SSL/TLS certificate by default. If you want to skip SSL verification
you can use
verify_ssl: False
. (CVE-2020-28972) - CVE-2020-35662 - Ensure the asam runner, qingcloud, splunk returner, panos
proxy, cimc proxy, zenoss module, esxi module, vsphere module, glassfish
module, bigip module, and keystone module validate SSL by default. If you want
to skip SSL verification you can use
verify_ssl: False
. (CVE-2020-35662) - CVE-2021-25281 - Fix salt-api so it honors eauth credentials for the wheel_async client. (CVE-2021-25281)
- CVE-2021-25282 - Fix the salt.wheel.pillar_roots.write method so it is not vulnerable to directory traversal. (CVE-2021-25282)

- Fixes salt-ssh authentication when using tty (#58922)
- Properly validate eauth credentials and tokens along with their ACLs. Prior to this change eauth was not properly validated when calling Salt ssh via the salt-api. Any value for 'eauth' or 'token' would allow a user to bypass authentication and make calls to Salt ssh. (CVE-2020-25592)
- Prevent shell injections in netapi ssh client (cve-2020-16846)
- Prevent creating world readable private keys with the tls execution module. (cve-2020-17490)

- Updated requirement to PyYAML 5.3.1 due to vulnerability in PyYAML 5.2.1. (#58019)
- When running scheduled jobs from a proxy minion with multiprocessing turned off (default) a recursive error occurs as __pub_fun_args is repeated over and over again in the kwargs element in the data dictionary. Now we make a copy of data['kwargs'] instead of using a reference. (#57941)
- The
x509.certificate_managed
state no longer triggers a change because of sorting issues if the certificate being evaluated was previously generated under Python 2. (#56556) - Added support to lo ip alias in network.managed state by checking if lo inet data from network.interfaces contains label with the name of managed interface. Return status True if match found. (#56901)
- Redact passwords in the return when setting credentials using
win_iis.container_setting
(#57285) - Fixes issue with cmd.powershell. Some powershell commands do not return
anything in stdout. This causes the JSON parser to fail because an empty string
is not valid JSON. This changes an empty string to
{}
which is valid JSON and will not cause the JSON loader to stacktrace. (#57493) - Improves performance. Profiling
test.ping
on Windows shows that 13 of 17 seconds are wasted when the esxi grain loads vsphere before noting that the OS is not a esxi host. (#57529) - Fixed permissions issue with certain pip/virtualenv states/modules when configured for non-root user. (#57550)

nox-py2 fork <https://github.com/s0undt3ch/nox/tree/hotfix/py2-release>
_ or upstreamnox <https://github.com/theacodes/nox>
_. (#57583) - Fixes issue with lgpo.get when there are unicode characters in the hostname (#57591)
- Fixes issue with virtual block devices, like loopbacks and LVMs, wrongly populating the "disks" or "ssds" grains. (#57612)
- Due to some optimization the
virtual
grain was never updated on illumos. Move the fallback in prtdiag output parsing outside the loop that now gets skipped due to the command exiting non-zero. (#57714) - Grains module delkey and delval methods now support the force option. This is needed for deleting grains with complex (nested) values. (#57718)
- Moving import salt.modules.vsphere into
__virtual__
so we have access to test proxytype in opts, previously this was causing a traceback when run on proxy minion as__opts__
does not exist outside of any functions. Introducing a new utils function, is_proxytype, to check that the device is a proxy minion and also that the proxy type matches. (#57743) - Fixed fail_with_changes in the test state to use the comment argument when passed. (#57766)
- Adds a fix so salt can run on the latest macOS version Big Sur. (#57787)
- Fixes UnpackValueError when using GPG cache by using atomic open. (#57798)
