Current Series Release Notes¶
27.0.0.0rc1-2¶
New Features¶
The Prometheus exporter now supports mutual TLS (mTLS). Setting the new
[polling] prometheus_tls_client_caoption (withprometheus_tls_enableon) makes the scrape endpoint require clients to present a certificate signed by that CA, so only authorized scrapers can read the metrics.
Security Issues¶
Previously the Prometheus exporter endpoint was unauthenticated: any client able to reach the port could scrape all metrics, even with TLS enabled. It can now be locked down with mutual TLS via
[polling] prometheus_tls_client_ca.
