Stratos v5.5.0

Features

• The Sign Out button in the side navigation can now be hidden with
  HIDE_NAV_LOGOUT=true, or console.ui.hideNavLogout on the Helm
  chart. It is presentation only — the user menu in the page header
  keeps its own Sign Out, so the ability to log out is unchanged.

Bug Fixes

• The UAA token endpoint is now checked at the point the request is made,
  rather than trusted from wherever it was built. It must be an absolute
  http(s) URL with a plain host and path — no user info, query or
  fragment. The first-run setup form supplies this value on an
  unauthenticated request, so an unconfigured console could be pointed at
  an arbitrary URL of a caller's choosing.
• Jetstream serves its own HTTPS again where it terminates TLS itself.
  Echo v5 resolves a certificate path through a filesystem rooted at the
  working directory, which rejects an absolute path outright, and the
  certificate was still being passed as a path — so no HTTPS listener
  started at all. The Kubernetes chart, and the dev and CI configurations,
  all use path shapes that hit this. Deployments on Cloud Foundry were
  unaffected, since the router terminates TLS there.
• Helm chart files and chart icons no longer 404 on Kubernetes. File
  serving now goes through the same rooted filesystem, which accepts an
  absolute path only beneath the working directory; the chart sets a cache
  folder outside it, so every chart file and icon answered 404 for a file
  plainly present on disk. Analysis reports and an absolute UI_PATH had
  the same exposure whenever the process was not started from an ancestor
  directory.
• Jetstream logs through one logger again. Echo v5 logs via log/slog
  and defaults to writing JSON to standard output, which meant its
  messages interleaved with Jetstream's own text-formatted logs on the
  same stream and ignored LOG_LEVEL. Echo's output is now routed into
  the application logger, so format and level apply to everything.
  API request logs keep the format they had under Echo v4 and remain
  gated by LOG_API_REQUESTS; they now also respect LOG_LEVEL.
• Deployed logs are no longer written with ANSI colour escapes. Colour was
  forced on rather than detected, so every line from a deployed Jetstream
  carried escape codes — visible in cf logs, where nothing is a terminal.
  A developer running the binary in a terminal still gets colour. The
  analysis container had the same problem.
• Two boot lines reporting the resolved Cloud Foundry paging overrides were
  written before the log handler was installed, so they came out through
  the standard library formatter. Under LOG_TO_JSON a collector got two
  unparseable records on every start. Boot output is JSON all the way down
  now.
• A LOG_LEVEL typo used to silence the backend almost completely.
  logrus returned its panic level for an unrecognised name and the
  error was discarded, so LOG_LEVEL=inof suppressed nearly every
  message. An unusable value is now reported and the current level
  kept.
• Under LOG_TO_JSON, the log level line and the API request log each
  emitted a record with a duplicate key, because both passed an
  attribute named for a key slog writes itself. Decoders generally take
  the last occurrence, so an aggregator read the configured level
  string in place of the record's real severity, and the request start
  time in place of the record timestamp.
• Deploying an application from a private Git repository wrote the
  supplied access token to the debug log. The source information line
  logged the whole client message, whose payload carries the token.
  Only the source type is logged now.
• Several failures were reported as success or reported without a
  cause: a Helm chart icon whose cache folder could not be created was
  returned as a valid path, a truncated chart archive was served as
  though it had extracted cleanly, an analysis report that failed to
  serialise returned HTTP 200, and both analysis runners logged
  completion before checking whether the run had failed.
• Two paths that could dereference a nil pointer are fixed: the Helm
  client stored a configuration it had already failed to build, and the
  Kubernetes dashboard proxy used a URL it had failed to parse.
• Numerous log lines that named the wrong function, shared one message
  between unrelated failures, or discarded the error they were
  reporting now identify what actually happened.
• The JSON schema form no longer emits a <form> inside a <form>. The
  renderer recurses into itself for nested object schemas and rooted every
  level in a form element, which is invalid HTML — the DOM API builds it
  anyway, and browsers scope submission and reset in ways the markup did
  not intend. Nothing in that template submits, so it is a plain container.
• Connecting a Kubernetes endpoint through OIDC or a kubeconfig works
  again. RFC 7519 defines the token expiry claim as a number of seconds
  since the epoch; it was being read as an RFC 3339 string, so no
  conformant token could satisfy it and every attempt failed with
  "can not get Access Token expiry time claim".
• Artifact Hub is available again when it is enabled. The flag was renamed
  from "enabled" to "disabled" when Artifact Hub support landed, but the
  test against it was not inverted, so requests were rejected as disabled
  precisely when the feature was on — which is the default.
• A Helm release whose manifest contains a malformed custom resource is
  now reported to the console as having manifest errors. That branch
  logged the parse failure but left the flag unset, unlike the branch
  beside it.
• kube-score analysis jobs are evicted from the job map when they finish.
  The busy flag was cleared for popeye runs and never for kube-score, and
  the cleanup pass skips busy jobs, so the map grew for as long as the
  analysis container ran.
• Deploying an application no longer panics when a file check fails for
  any reason other than the file being absent — a permission error, a
  symlink loop, or an over-long name left a nil result that was then
  dereferenced.
• The fallback path for the plugin scripts folder contained a stray
  character, so a layout that keeps the scripts under the plugin directory
  never matched the candidate meant to find it.
• The endpoint filter on the Applications, Marketplace and Services
  toolbars lists endpoints by name. It was built by walking the endpoint
  list in arrival order, which no query orders, so with more than one
  endpoint of a kind the dropdown showed whatever order the rows came
  back in. "All" stays at the top. The comparator is the one the sibling
  dropdowns on those toolbars already use, so cf10 sorts after cf2.
• The side navigation no longer offers Sign Out when there is no session
  to end. Running with AUTH_ENDPOINT_TYPE=none grants the
  stratos.noauth scope, which the page header has always honoured; the
  side navigation ignored it and showed the button anyway.
• Pull requests targeting a release/* branch now run the full test suite.
  The workflow triggers listed main, develop and angular** only, so a
  release line got no checks at all — pushes to it are gated too.

Maintainability

• Jetstream now runs on Echo v5. Echo v4 is in security-and-bugfix-only
  maintenance until the end of 2026, and v5 reworked enough of the API —
  a concrete request context, log/slog for logging, a rearranged error
  handler — that the move had to happen in one step across the backend
  and every plugin.
• Retired four unmaintained or superseded dependencies:
  SermoDigital/jose (no upstream release since 2019) is gone from the
  Kubernetes auth plugin, which used it only to read one claim from a
  token the platform had already issued; satori/go.uuid (abandoned) is
  replaced by google/uuid, which the backend already depended on for
  the same purpose; golang/mock (archived) moves to its successor
  go.uber.org/mock; and gorilla/context, obsolete since Go 1.7, is
  gone along with the middleware that existed only to call it.
• Dropped the archived AWS SDK v1. It was reachable only through
  aws-iam-authenticator, which has since moved to SDK v2; the Kubernetes
  IAM auth path moves with it.
• Upgraded Helm to v3.21.4 and the Kubernetes client libraries to v0.36.
  Kubernetes minor releases remove APIs, so these move as a set. This
  also repairs dependency maintenance in the Kubernetes plugin, where
  go mod tidy could not run at all: the previous Helm pulled a kubectl
  that imports an API removed in k8s v0.36.
• Jetstream now logs entirely through log/slog. Echo v5 had already
  moved to slog, which left the backend running two loggers with two
  formats and two level settings; a bridge kept them on one stream
  during the transition and is now gone. All nine Go modules are
  converted, and no first-party code imports logrus anywhere. Log
  messages are structured records rather than formatted strings, so
  identifiers that used to be interpolated into message text — user,
  endpoint and token GUIDs, org and space, chart and release names —
  are now attributes that can be filtered and correlated. LOG_LEVEL
  and LOG_TO_JSON behave as before, and every level name logrus
  accepted still works, including trace, fatal and panic.
• Every filesystem operation in the analysis container now re-checks, at
  the point of use, that the path still sits beneath the reports
  directory, resolving any ".." before comparing. The paths were already
  built safely, but the guarantee lived in the constructors: an analyzer
  read the job folder and temporary file names directly, so a later change
  setting either from somewhere else would have reached the disk
  unchallenged. The monocular and Artifact Hub cache paths are built from
  validated segments in one place for the same reason.

Chores

• Jetstream now builds with Go 1.27. Go 1.27 rejects the invalid hash id
  that SermoDigital/jose registers from an init function, which panics
  before main and crash-loops the binary. The dependency is reached
  through the CF CLI rather than our own code, so it is pinned to a fork
  with that registration removed until the CF CLI moves to a maintained
  JWT library.
• make check lint runs the Go linters again. golangci-lint supports
  only a Go version at or below the one that built it, so the Go 1.27
  bump left the packaged binary failing before it reached any linter.
  It is now pinned and built from source against the toolchain named in
  go.mod.
• Frontend dependencies moved to their current releases: Angular and the
  Angular CLI to 22.1.x, marked 16 to 18, js-yaml 4 to 5, sass-loader
  13 to 17 and @playwright/test to 1.62. The Angular devkit packages have
  to move as a set, and @angular-devkit/build-angular had to be carried
  with them by hand: it is deprecated at every published version, and
  Dependabot filters deprecated releases out of the candidate list, so it
  cannot bump that one package while bumping its siblings. Leaving it behind
  resolves two copies of @angular-devkit/architect and the devkit builders
  stop type-checking.
• Two build scripts imported js-yaml through a default export that
  version 5 no longer provides, and failed at module load.
• The frontend test matrix in CI listed seven of the eight vitest projects,
  so the cf-autoscaler specs ran locally and never in CI.
