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_ca option (with prometheus_tls_enable on) 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.
