Starkiller’s new features occasionally depend on new functionality within Empire. Therefore, it is recommended that you follow this release table for syncing up your Starkiller and Empire versions. If you are using an older version of Empire, Starkiller will warn you when logging in, but will allow you to continue. If a there is a new minimum version of Empire required to get all the features out of Starkiller, we will do a minor version bump to Starkiller.
| Starkiller Release | Minimum Empire Version | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1.0.x | 3.1.1 | 3.1.1 is the first version of Empire to include all the user endpoints necessary for Starkiller to function |
| 1.1.x | 3.1.5 | 3.1.5 updated the reporting endpoint to have the same result as running it in the CLI. Starkiller 1.1.x uses that reporting endpoint for the reporting tab |
| 1.2.x | 3.2.0 | 3.2.0 added an endpoint for users that is needed for the UI updates introduced in Starkiller 1.2.0 |
| 1.3.x | 3.3.0 | 3.3.0 categorized all of the modules in Empire with corresponding MITRE techniques |
| 1.4.x, 1.5.x | 3.5.0 | 3.5.0 added real-time notifications for new listeners and agents |
| 1.6.x, 1.7.x | 3.7.0 | 1.6.0 was tested against Empire 3.7.0. There shouldn't be any breaking changes, but there were a lot of code changes. |
Detailed changes for each release are documented in the release notes.
