Tanium Client 7.7.3.8176

  • Tanium Cloud availability date: April 24, 2025.
  • On-premises availability date: N/A.

Special Notes

  • With this release of the Tanium Client, the size of the Computer ID used for identifying endpoints has gone from a 32-bit value to a 64-bit value. For information on the full ramifications of that change to integrations with Tanium, please review this article: Preparing for Tanium Client 7.7 and ComputerID Expansion

Security Updates

  • N/A.

New Features

  • Computer ID has been expanded from 32-bits to 64-bits to allow for namespaces and new managed endpoint types.
  • The Tanium Client includes a new feature, CXSocket, which allows the creation of a direct communication channel between the Client and a module via the 315 protocol, which allows new module features like Connect-to-Ground.
  • The Tanium Client now enables RedirectionGuard auditing mode in Windows versions that support it.

Improvements

  • Tanium Platform components have removed support for HTTP h2c which has never been widely adopted.
  • The Tanium Client will now unset its LastUsedClientSOAPPort value early during startup. This avoids the possibility of the previous LastUsedClientSOAPPort value being used before the Client service is fully up and running.
  • The Tanium Client now translates the "TRACE" log level in the Tanium Server API to the internal LogVerbosityLevel=61.
  • Tanium Platform components now ship with xz library v5.6.4.
  • Tanium Platform components now ship with libexpat v2.7.0.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixes an issue where the /Library/Tanium/* directory might not have 0755 permissions on Tanium Client installations on macOS endpoints.
  • Fixes an issue in the linking of Tanium Client binaries in Solaris that might cause installation and service failures with the message "TaniumClient: fatal: libcrypto.so: version 'OPENSSL_3.2.0' not found".
  • Fixes an incorrect library dependency in the Tanium Client in Solaris where the SQLite library would depend on an external copy of libz.so.

Known Issues and Workarounds

  • N/A
