StackStorm is headed for the Linux Foundation! This is a big move and we're excited to share this news with our community. For several months now we've been working with the Linux Foundation, the StackStorm team, and many others inside Extreme to make this move possible. We want to thank everyone for their effort to make this move happen. StackStorm's community continues to grow and the impact the project has had continues to show, and show, and show, and show (you get the point).

Due to a number of vulnerabilities found in the version of Apache we bundle with CFEngine Hub, we have upgraded the CFEngine Hub packages to use an updated version of Apache. We upgrade from Apache 2.4.39 to Apache 2.4.41. We are now releasing a new version, CFEngine Hub 3.12.2-5. Only new Hub packages are being released, as no other packages are affected by these vulnerabilities.

When working on the new Federated Reporting feature for CFEngine we had to solve the problem of collecting data from multiple CFEngine hubs (feeders) on a single hub (superhub). CFEngine hubs are using PostgreSQL to store data, so, more specifically, the problem was how to collect data from multiple PostgreSQL databases in one PostgreSQL database.

This is a very exciting time for the CFEngine product team, the community, and the user base. As we are getting closer to the release of CFEngine 3.15 LTS, we can look back at some great improvements in the last few years.

Today we are happy to announce the general availability of CFEngine 3.15.0 beta. CFEngine 3.15 is our upcoming LTS (Long Term Support) release. The main focus of this release has been the new Federated Reporting feature. It also contains a lot of performance work and stability improvements.

On [2019-07-29 Mon] we released new builds of our Enterprise Hub packages for 3.12.2 and 3.14.0. This release addresses CVE-2019-10164. PostgreSQL versions 10.x before 10.9 and versions 11.x before 11.4 are vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow. Any authenticated user can overflow a stack-based buffer by changing the user’s own password to a purpose-crafted value. This often suffices to execute arbitrary code as the PostgreSQL operating system account.

At Zenaton, our ambition is to offer a powerful workflow engine that is also easy to implement so that tech teams can spend more time writing code and business logic and less time maintaining infrastructure. To that end, we know that when implementing a new tool or service, it’s important to be up and running as fast as possible.

StackStorm v3.1 is now available. This new release is focused on stability and bug fixes. As always, make sure you have backups first. Then follow the standard Upgrade Instructions.

Tradee is a marketplace website and mobile application that allows users to buy, sell, and exchange watches. Tradee was evolving from an online community to a marketplace and needed to implement workflows to enable buyers and sellers to verify their identity and complete their transactions (payment, correspondence and shipping).

Today we are very proud and happy to launch our latest non-supported release, CFEngine 3.14.0. 3.14 is a great number, being the closest we will get to PI, we also wanted to introduce something very special this time around, and we did!
