Logstash 7.15.1 Release Notes

edit

Performance improvements and notable issues fixed

edit
  • Bootstrap air-gapped environment for GeoIP database service #13104. For an air-gapped environment, users can run the elasticsearch-geoip script to bootstrap a mock server to interact with Logstash. Set xpack.geoip.download.endpoint to use the mock server. For more info, see Manage your own databases in the Geoip filter plugin docs.
  • Fixed a shutdown error that could occur when using an external GeoIP DB #13224
  • Fixed GeoIP database service SSL verification error #13273

    • Work-around for the recent expiration of the "DST Root CA X3" certificate
  • Added missing configs that support customization using environment variables in Docker #13200
  • Our ECS efforts introduced a problem that can occur when updating some plugins that are dependent on our ecs_compatibility_support helper. This issue is resolved in #13268.

Updates to dependencies

  • Update bundled JDK to 11.0.12+7 #13185
