✨ New features to highlight in this version

🗓️ Flexible Scan Scheduling

Note

Available exclusively in Prowler Cloud. Prowler App self-hosted supports daily scans only.

schedule_1

You can now set a per-provider scan schedule from the Providers page. Pick a scan time and a repeat cadence: Daily, Every 48 hours, Weekly (with a day-of-week selector), or Monthly. Schedules can be edited or removed at any time, and a new scan never interrupts access to existing data.

schedule_2

All schedules are listed in one place under the Scheduled tab in Scan Jobs, showing each provider's cadence, next scan, and last scan at a glance.

schedule_3

📚 DORA — Expanded Provider Coverage

Prowler extends DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act, Regulation (EU) 2022/2554) coverage to Azure, GCP, Cloudflare, and Alibaba Cloud, mapping each provider's existing checks across the five DORA pillars.

Note

The framework follows the <name>_<version> naming convention as DORA_2022_2554.

Read more in our compliance documentation.

🚀 Guided Onboarding

Note

Available exclusively in Prowler Cloud.

New accounts now get a guided first-run experience. The Overview greets you with an "Add your first provider" prompt: connect a provider so Prowler has something to scan and assess, then get started in one click (or skip for now).

onboarding_1

From there, contextual empty states across the product point you to the next action rather than leaving you stuck. Attack Paths, for example, explains that you need a completed scan before it can build a graph and links straight to Scan Jobs, with a "See how it works" affordance for first-timers.

onboarding_2

🔐 Optional SAML SSO userType

The SAML userType attribute is now optional. If your IdP does not send it, or sends it blank, Prowler keeps the user's existing roles unchanged instead of replacing them with a fallback role.

When userType is provided, Prowler still maps the user to the matching role. If that role does not exist yet, Prowler creates it with read-only access: visibility over all providers, with no management permissions.

🏢 New Provider — Linode

Prowler now scans Linode (Akamai Cloud), covering its administration, compute, and networking services. Thanks to @varunmamillapalli for their 1st provider in Prowler!

Note

Linode is not officially supported. For more information, contact us.

🙌 External Contributors

Thank you to our community contributors for this release!

UI

🚀 Added

  • Controlled 402 and 403 Server Action error messages for alert seed and mutation flows (#11629)

🐞 Fixed

  • Attack Paths now shows distinct messages while a scan is queued, running, or building its graph — plus a separate "couldn't load scans" error — instead of always showing "No scans available" (#11512)
  • Radio button no longer shifts vertically when selected (#11608)
  • Handle rename DORA to DORA_2022_2554 to follow the naming _ in compliance frameworks (#11551)

🔐 Security

  • Bump vulnerable Next.js, React, AI SDK, postcss, hono, qs, esbuild, and Alpine OpenSSL packages (libcrypto3 and libssl3) (#11581)
  • Bump transitive dompurify from 3.4.2 to 3.4.10, patching XSS sanitization bypass advisories (#11636)

API

🚀 Added

  • Provider group filters for API endpoints that support cloud provider filtering, including exact and __in variants (#11573)
  • Provider filters for GET /api/v1/compliance-overviews, /metadata, and /requirements, using latest completed scans per matching provider (#11587)
  • Server-Sent Events (SSE) infrastructure for the API: a base viewset, a tenant-aware channel manager, and channel-name helpers backed by django-eventstream over Valkey Pub/Sub and served through the Gunicorn ASGI worker, so feature endpoints can stream events to clients over a single long-lived connection (#11556)
  • DJANGO_CELERY_WORKER_CONCURRENCY to configure Celery workers concurrency. Unset for default behaviour (#11075)

🔄 Changed

  • Gunicorn worker timeout raised from the 30s default to 120s, so long-running requests are no longer killed prematurely (#11631)
  • Sentry now drops ASGI's RequestAborted errors from health-check probe disconnects on /health/live (#11632)
  • Gunicorn keep-alive timeout now exceeds the load balancer idle timeout, stopping 502s from reused connections (#11647)
  • API runs under the Uvicorn worker so keep-alive outlives the load balancer idle timeout, fixing Gunicorn's intermittent 502s (#11663)

🐞 Fixed

  • Database connections no longer leak under the ASGI worker, which previously exhausted the read replica's connection slots and caused 500s on read endpoints (#11640)

🔐 Security
