Tanium Server for Windows and Linux v7.3.314.3667

General Availability Release Date: April 23, 2019.

Special Notes

  • Due to security issues against this release of Tanium Server, Tanium strongly recommends upgrading to at least v7.3.314.4324 if you are using this version.

New Features

  • N/A.

Improvements

  • The Tanium Server /info page now provides information on the number of active connections being used by Tanium Client registrations.
  • The Tanium Server /info page now offers more detailed information about the type of Tanium Client messages that contribute to overall outgoing traffic.
  • The Tanium Server supports again the registration_connection_limit (Server, Numeric) Global Setting with a default value of 0 (zero), which means "unlimited". This setting can be used in extremely large deployments to limit the number of concurrent Tanium Client connections used for registration, as a means to conserve bandwidth.
  • Improved TDownloader to support very large client-side certificates instead of logging the error: RegistryError: Registry value too large: Certificate.

Security Updates

  • This release includes security updates. Details of the issues, including affected versions and mitigation information, can be obtained within Tanium's Support Portal or by contacting your TAM.

Bug Fixes

  • The Tanium Server /info page now supports NTLM again, resolving the HTTP-401 and HTTP-500 errors which some users have experienced in previous releases.
  • Fixed a condition within the Tanium Server where Question and Action messages were unnecessarily large, resulting in the log message: error: assertion 'Narrow<unsigned>( buffer.Aft().size() ) >= octetsLeft' failed.
  • Fixed a condition which could cause a crash when running: TaniumServer database upgrade.
  • Fixed an issue with the CSV format export function where field values containing comma characters (,) were not quoted properly on output.
  • Added support for NTLM authentication to the REST API services.
  • Fixed a condition where the Tanium Server could crash under load, logging: Linux::TheIOCP::DisAssociateSocket epoll_ctl failed and Failed to set socket non-blocking flag: EBADF: Bad file descriptor.
  • Modified a behavior related to Question visibility in-memory caches which were never released.  This would not contribute significantly to the Tanium Server's memory footprint but was improved nonetheless.
  • Fixed a condition which could cause a Tanium Server to crash while attempting to shut down, associated with: LinuxAsyncSocketListener::QueueAcceptedSocket.
  • Improved the performance of Question processing by reducing the use of stringstream objects.
  • Fixed a condition seen on the /info pages in very large environments where the bandwidth numbers reported where often 0 (zero) when they should have had a positive value.
  • Changed the SAML implementation to ignore whitespace in Base64-encoded signatures to work with some providers like SiteMinder.
  • Fixed an issue with where the Global Setting max_download_processes_per_batch, which was interpreted to have a value of zero after being deleted in the Tanium Console, resulting in TDownloader never being executed by the system.
  • Fixed an issue in the Tanium Server API where querying for Scheduled Actions could return SavedActionNotFound during periods when Actions are deleted and recreated in rapid succession, which is the way that Solution modules like Trace create their deployment configurations.

Known Issues and Workarounds

  • N/A.
