Fixed issues Before this update, pods in a different namespace could access the Redis server on port 6379 to obtain read and write access to the data. This issue has been fixed in this release by enabling secure authentication. 1.6. Release Notes for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.4 Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.4 is now available on OpenShift Container Platform 4.12, 4.13, and 4.14. 1.6.1. Errata updates 1.6.1.1. RHSA-2024:2815 - Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.4 security update advisory Issued: 2024-05-10 The list of security fixes that are included in this release is documented in the following advisory: RHSA-2024:2815 If you have installed the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator, run the following command to view the container images in this release: USD oc describe deployment gitops-operator-controller-manager -n openshift-operators 1.6.2. Fixed issues Before this update, users could not use the argocd-k8s-auth binary to add Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) clusters because this binary was not available in the GitOps container. This update fixes the issue by adding the argocd-k8s-auth binary in the GitOps container. GITOPS-4226 Before this update, attempts to connect to Azure DevOps with Argo CD would result in an error due to the deprecation of the rsa-ssh host key algorithm by the Azure DevOps Repository service. This update fixes the issue by providing support for the rsa-ssh host key algorithms during the communication process between Argo CD and Azure DevOps Repository service. GITOPS-4543 Before this update, the ignoreDifferences sync option in Argo CD did not work for array fields. This update fixes the issue by modifying the merge strategy of the ignoreDifferences sync option used in the upstream project to handle array fields. As a result, the sync option now functions correctly by allowing users to ignore specific elements in the array during sync. GITOPS-2962 Before this update, users accessing a Red Hat OpenShift on AWS (ROSA) cluster after hibernation were unable to log in to the Argo CD web console due to an error indicating an invalid redirect URI in the Dex configuration. With this update, users can now log in to the Argo CD web console without facing any errors when the ROSA cluster is operational post-hibernation. GITOPS-4358 Before this update, users were unable to log in to the Argo CD web console if the availability of the openshift-gitops route was delayed while the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator processed an Argo CD custom resource instance. An error message was displayed indicating an invalid redirect URI in the Dex configuration. With this update, users can now log in to the Argo CD web console without facing any errors. GITOPS-3736 Before this update, users could not create custom resources for Argo CD from the Add page on the Developer perspective of the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps web console. This issue has been observed from Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.10 and later releases. This update fixes the issue because Operator-backed resources with the correct versions are included in the ClusterServiceVersion manifest file. GITOPS-4513 1.7. Release Notes for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.3 Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.3 is now available on OpenShift Container Platform 4.12, 4.13, and 4.14. 1.7.1. Errata updates 1.7.1.1. RHSA-2024:1697 - Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.3 security update advisory Issued: 2024-04-08 The list of security fixes that are included in this release is documented in the following advisory: RHSA-2024:1697 If you have installed the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator, run the following command to view the container images in this release: USD oc describe deployment gitops-operator-controller-manager -n openshift-operators 1.8. Release notes for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.2 Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.2 is now available on OpenShift Container Platform 4.12, 4.13, and 4.14. 1.8.1. Errata updates 1.8.1.1. RHSA-2024:1346 - Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.2 security update advisory Issued: 2023-03-15 The list of security fixes that are included in this release is documented in the following advisory: RHSA-2024:1346 If you have installed the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator, run the following command to view the container images in this release: USD oc describe deployment gitops-operator-controller-manager -n openshift-operators 1.8.2. Fixed issues Before this update, due to the incorrect filtering of URL protocols in the Argo CD application summary component, an attacker could use cross-site scripting with permission to edit the application. This update fixes the issue by upgrading the Argo CD version to 2.9.8, which patches this vulnerability. GITOPS-4210 1.9. Release notes for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.1 Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.1 is now available on OpenShift Container Platform 4.12, 4.13, and 4.14. 1.9.1. Errata updates 1.9.1.1. RHSA-2024-0689 - Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.1 security update advisory Issued: 2024-02-05 The list of security fixes that are included in this release is documented in the following advisory: RHSA-2024-0689 If you have installed the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator, view the container images in this release by running the following command: USD oc describe deployment gitops-operator-controller-manager -n openshift-operators 1.10. Release notes for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.0 Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.11.0 is now available on OpenShift Container Platform 4.12, 4.13, and 4.14. 1.10.1. New features The current release adds the following improvement: With this update, you can selectively disable the redis and application-controller components for an Argo CD instance in a specified namespace. These components are enabled by default. To disable a component, set the enabled flag to false in the .spec.<component>.enabled field of the Argo CD Custom Resource (CR). GITOPS-3723 For example: apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1 kind: ArgoCD metadata: name: example-argocd spec: controller: enabled: false redis: enabled: false Note This feature is currently limited to the redis and application-controller components. It is expected that support for other components will be included in a future Red Hat OpenShift GitOps release. 1.10.2. Fixed issues The following issues have been resolved in the current release: Before this update, the Argo CD Notifications Controller did not support custom certificates added to the argocd-tls-certs-cm config map. As a result, notification services with custom certificates did not receive notifications due to the x509: certificate signed by unknown authority error message. This update fixes the issue by correctly initializing the cert resolver function in the Argo CD Notifications Controller to load all certificates stored in the argocd-tls-certs-cm config map. Now, notification services with custom certificates can successfully receive notifications. GITOPS-2809 Before this update, users would face PrometheusOperatorRejectedResources alerts when the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator was not installed in the openshift-gitops-operator namespace. The problem affected users who upgraded from earlier versions of the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator to v1.10. This update fixes the issue by updating the Operator's serverName metrics service to reflect the correct installation namespace. Now, users who upgrade or install the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator in namespaces other than openshift-gitops-operator should not see these alerts. GITOPS-3424 1.11. Release Notes for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.10.6 Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.10.6 is now available on OpenShift Container Platform 4.12, 4.13, and 4.14. 1.11.1. Errata updates 1.11.1.1.

RHSA-2023:5407 and RHEA-2023:5408 - Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.10.0 security update advisory Issued: 2023-09-29 The list of security fixes and enhancements that are included in this release is documented in the following advisories: RHSA-2023:5407 RHEA-2023:5408 If you have installed the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator in the default namespace, run the following command to view the container images in this release: USD oc describe deployment gitops-operator-controller-manager -n openshift-gitops-operator 1.17.2. New features The current release adds the following improvements: With this update, the Argo CD CRD API version is upgraded from v1alpha1 to v1beta1 to accomodate the breaking changes resulting from the deprecation of .spec.dex and certain .spec.sso fields. To streamline the automatic migration of existing v1alpha1 Argo CD CRs to v1beta1 , conversion webhook support is implemented. GITOPS-3040 Note By default, the conversion webhook is enabled only for OLM-installed Operators. For non-OLM installations of the Operator, enabling the webhook is optional. However, without conversion webhook support, you have to manually migrate any existing Argo CD v1alpha1 CRs to v1beta1 . With this update, the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator deploys three monitoring dashboards in the Administrator perspective of the web console. The three dashboards are GitOps Overview , GitOps Components , and GitOps gRPC . To access these dashboards, go to Observe Monitoring . GITOPS-1767 Note Disabling or changing the content of the dashboards is not supported. Previously, timestamps were presented in a Unix epoch format. With this update, the timestamps are changed to RFC3339 format, for example: 2023-06-27T07:12:48-04:00, to improve overall readability. GITOPS-2898 With this update, the default Argo CD instance in the openshift-gitops namespace has restricted permissions for non-admin users by default. This improves security because non-admin users no longer have access to sensitive information. However, as an administrator, you can set permissions and grant non-admin users access to the resources managed by the default openshift-gitops Argo CD instance by configuring your Argo CD RBAC. This change only applies to the default openshift-gitops Argo CD instance. GITOPS-3032 With this update, the default installation namespace for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator is changed to its own namespace called openshift-gitops-operator . You can still choose the old default installation namespace, openshift-operators , through a drop-down menu available in the OperatorHub UI at installation time. You can also enable cluster monitoring on the new namespace by selecting the check box, which makes the Operator's performance metrics accessible within the OpenShift Container Platform web console. GITOPS-3073 Note The Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator's metrics are only available when the Operator is installed in the default namespace, openshift-gitops-operator . With this update, the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator exports custom metrics that allow you to track the performance of the Operator. The following are the exported metrics: active_argocd_instances_total : This shows the number of Argo CD instances currently managed across the cluster. active_argocd_instances_by_phase{phase="<_PHASE>"} : This shows the number of Argo CD instances in a given phase, such as pending, available, among others. active_argocd_instance_reconciliation_count{namespace="<_YOUR-DEFINED-NAMESPACE>"} : This shows the number of times the instance in a given namespace is reconciled. controller_runtime_reconcile_time_seconds_per_instance{namespace="<_YOUR-DEFINED-NAMESPACE>"} : This metric displays the distribution of reconciliation cycles by their duration for the instance in a given namespace. To access these metrics, go to the Observe tab on the web console, and run queries against the monitoring stack. GITOPS-2645 Note You need to install the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator in the default openshift-gitops-operator namespace with monitoring enabled to have these metrics automatically available. Before this update, there was no option for choosing an algorithm for distributing the destination clusters equally across the different application controller shards. Now, you can set the sharding algorithm to the round-robin parameter, which distributes clusters equally across the different application controller shards so that the synchronization load is spread equally among the shards. GITOPS-3288 Important The round-robin sharding algorithm is a Technology Preview feature. Before this update, there was no option for scaling the application controller replicas dynamically. Now, you can dynamically scale the number of application controllers based on the number of clusters managed by each application controller. GITOPS-3287 Important Dynamic scaling of shards is a Technology Preview feature. Additional resources Dynamically scale the Argo CD application controller with Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.10.0 1.17.3. Deprecated and removed features With this release, the following deprecated sso and dex fields are removed from Argo CD CR: The .spec.sso.image , .spec.sso.version , .spec.sso.resources , and .spec.sso.verifyTLS fields for keycloak SSO configurations The .spec.dex fields, along with DISABLE_DEX environment variable Additionally, the .status.dex and .status.ssoConfig fields are also removed, and a new status field, .status.sso , is introduced. The new field reflects the workload status of the SSO provider (dex or keycloak) configured through the .spec.sso.provider field. GITOPS-2473 Important To configure dex or keycloak SSO, use the equivalent fields under .spec.sso . With this update, the deprecated .spec.resourceCustomizations field is removed from Argo CD CR. Bug fixes and support are only provided through the end of the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps v1.9 lifecycle. As an alternative to .spec.resourceCustomizations , you can use .spec.resourceHealthChecks , .spec.resourceIgnoreDifferences , and .spec.resourceActions fields instead. GITOPS-3041 Important To prevent data loss during upgrade to Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator v1.10.0, ensure that you backup .spec.resourceCustomization value if it is used in your Argo CD CRs. With this update, the deprecated legacy Configuration Management Plugins (CMPs) feature, specified in the argocd-cm config map or the Operator through the .spec.configManagementPlugins field in Argo CD CR, has been removed in Argo CD v2.8. To continue using your legacy plugins, consider migrating them to the new sidecar available in the Operator through the .spec.repo.sidecarContainers field in Argo CD CR. GITOPS-3462 1.17.4. Fixed issues The following issues have been resolved in the current release: Before this update, there were vulnerabilities on Redis. This update fixes the issue by upgrading Redis to the latest version of registry.redhat.io/rhel-8/redis-6 . GITOPS-3069 Before this update, users were facing an "x509: certificate signed by unknown authority" error when using scmProvider with GitLab. This update fixes the issue by adding support for the Insecure flag for scmProvider with GitLab, and an option for mounting TLS certificate on the applicationSet controller. This certificate can then be utilized for scmProvider interactions with GitLab. GITOPS-3107 1.18. Release notes for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.9.4 Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.9.4 is now available on OpenShift Container Platform 4.12, 4.13, and 4.14. 1.18.1. Errata updates 1.18.1.1.

New features The current release adds the following improvements: With this update, the bundled Argo CD has been updated to version 2.7.6. 1.21.3. Fixed issues The following issues have been resolved in the current release: Before this update, Argo CD was becoming unresponsive when there was an increase in namespaces and applications. This update fixes the issue by removing a deadlock. Deadlock occurs when two functions are competing for resources. Now, you should not experience crashes or unresponsiveness when there is an increase in namespaces or applications. GITOPS-2782 Before this update, the Argo CD application controller resource could suddenly stop working when resynchronizing applications. This update fixes the issue by adding logic to prevent a cluster cache deadlock. Now, you should not experience the deadlock situation, and applications should resynchronize successfully. GITOPS-2880 Before this update, there was a mismatch in the RSA key for known hosts in the argocd-ssh-known-hosts-cm config map. This update fixes the issue by matching the RSA key with the upstream project. Now, you can use the default RSA keys on default deployments. GITOPS-3042 Before this update, the reconciliation timeout setting in the argocd-cm config map was not being correctly applied to the Argo CD application controller resource. This update fixes the issue by correctly reading and applying the reconciliation timeout setting from the argocd-cm config map. Now, you can modify the reconciliation timeout value from the AppSync setting without a problem. GITOPS-2810 1.22. Release notes for Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.9.0 Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.9.0 is now available on OpenShift Container Platform 4.12 and 4.13. 1.22.1. Errata updates 1.22.1.1. RHSA-2023:3557 - Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.9.0 security update advisory Issued: 2023-06-09 The list of security fixes that are included in this release is documented in the following advisory: RHSA-2023:3557 If you have installed the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps Operator, run the following command to view the container images in this release: USD oc describe deployment gitops-operator-controller-manager -n openshift-operators 1.22.2. New features The current release adds the following improvements: With this update, you can use a custom must-gather tool to collect diagnostic information for project-level resources, cluster-level resources, and Red Hat OpenShift GitOps components. This tool provides the debugging information about the cluster associated with Red Hat OpenShift GitOps, which you can share with the Red Hat Support team for analysis. GITOPS-2797 With this update, you can add support to progressive delivery using Argo Rollouts. Currently, the supported traffic manager is only Red Hat OpenShift Service Mesh. GITOPS-959 Important Argo Rollouts is a Technology Preview feature. Additional resources Using Argo Rollouts 1.22.3. Deprecated and removed features In Red Hat OpenShift GitOps 1.7.0, the .spec.resourceCustomizations parameter was deprecated. The deprecated .spec.resourceCustomizations parameter is planned to be removed in the upcoming Red Hat OpenShift GitOps GA v1.10.0 release. You can use the new formats spec.ResourceHealthChecks , spec.ResourceIgnoreDifferences , and spec.ResourceActions instead. GITOPS-2890 With this update, the support for the following deprecated sso and dex fields extends until the upcoming Red Hat OpenShift GitOps GA v1.10.0 release: The .spec.sso.image , .spec.sso.version , .spec.sso.resources , and .spec.sso.verifyTLS fields. The .spec.dex parameter along with DISABLE_DEX . The deprecated sso and dex fields were earlier scheduled for removal in the Red Hat OpenShift GitOps v1.9.0 release but are now planned to be removed in the upcoming Red Hat OpenShift GitOps GA v1.10.0 release. GITOPS-2904 1.22.4. Fixed issues The following issues have been resolved in the current release: Before this update, when the argocd-server-tls secret was updated with a new certificate Argo CD was not always picking up this secret. As a result, the old expired certificate was presented. This update fixes the issue with a new GetCertificate function and ensures that the latest version of certificates is in use. When adding new certificates, now Argo CD picks them up automatically without the user having to restart the argocd-server pod. GITOPS-2375 Before this update, when enforcing GPG signature verification against a targetRevision integer pointing to a signed Git tag, users got a Target revision in Git is not signed error. This update fixes the issue and lets users enforce GPG signature verification against signed Git tags. GITOPS-2418 Before this update, users could not connect to Microsoft Team Foundation Server (TFS) type Git repositories through Argo CD deployed by the Operator. This update fixes the issue by updating the Git version to 2.39.3 in the Operator. GITOPS-2768 Before this update, when the Operator was deployed and running with the High availability (HA) feature enabled, setting resource limits under the .spec.ha.resources field did not affect Redis HA pods. This update fixes the reconciliation by adding checks in the Redis reconciliation code. These checks ensure whether the spec.ha.resources field in the Argo CD custom resource (CR) is updated. When the Argo CD CR is updated with new CPU and memory requests or limit values for HA, now these changes are applied to the Redis HA pods. GITOPS-2404 Before this update, if a namespace-scoped Argo CD instance was managing multiple namespaces by using the managed-by label and one of those managed namespaces was in a Terminating state, the Argo CD instance could not deploy resources to all other managed namespaces. This update fixes the issue by enabling the Operator to remove the managed-by label from any previously managed now terminating namespace. Now, a terminating namespace managed by a namespace-scoped Argo CD instance does not block the deployment of resources to other managed namespaces. GITOPS-2627 1.22.5. Known issues Currently, the Argo CD does not read the Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificates from the path specified in the argocd-tls-certs-cm config map resulting in the x509: certificate signed by unknown authority error. Workaround: Perform the following steps: Add the SSL_CERT_DIR environment variable: Example Argo CD custom resource apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1 kind: ArgoCD metadata: name: example-argocd labels: example: repo spec: # ... repo: env: - name: SSL_CERT_DIR value: /tmp/sslcertdir volumeMounts: - name: ssl mountPath: /tmp/sslcertdir volumes: - name: ssl configMap: name: user-ca-bundle # ... Create an empty config map in the namespace where the subscription for your Operator exists and include the following label: Example config map apiVersion: v1 kind: ConfigMap metadata: name: user-ca-bundle 1 labels: config.openshift.io/inject-trusted-cabundle: "true" 2 1 Name of the config map. 2 Requests the Cluster Network Operator to inject the merged bundle. After creating this config map, the user-ca-bundle content from the openshift-config namespace automatically gets injected into this config map, even merged with the system ca-bundle.
