  • Update to Golang 1.12.4. 11782

  • Update to ECS 1.0.1. 12284 12317

  • Fixed a crash under Windows when fetching processes information. 12833

  • Update to Golang 1.12.7. 12931

  • Remove in_cluster configuration parameter for Kuberentes, now in-cluster configuration is used only if no other kubeconfig is specified 13051

Filebeat

  • Add Filebeat Azure Dashboards 14127

  • Add read_buffer configuration option. 11739

  • Fix a race condition in the TCP input when close the client socket. 13038

  • cisco/asa fileset: Renamed log.original to event.original and cisco.asa.list_id to cisco.asa.rule_name. 13286

  • Removed host.name field that should never have been included. Heartbeat uses observer.* fields instead. 14140

  • Changed default user-agent to be Elastic-Heartbeat/VERSION (PLATFORM_INFO) as the current default Go-http-client/1.1 is often blacklisted. 14291

  • JSON/Regex checks against HTTP bodies will only consider the first 100MiB of the HTTP body to prevent excessive memory usage. pull
