v1.5.16
v1.5.15
v1.5.15 Release Notes - February 7, 2025
v1.5.15 adds logging of Fabric CA server configuration upon startup,
as well as the configuration for FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3
to assist with the change mentioned below that was delivered in v1.5.14.
Dependencies
Fabric CA v1.5.15 has been tested with the following dependencies:
- Go 1.23.5
- Ubuntu 22.04 (for Docker images)
- Databases
- PostgreSQL 13
- MySQL 8.0
Changes
In Fabric CA v1.4 a more secure mechanism was made available for authentication.
Most Fabric CA clients have been updated to utilize the new authentication header,
therefore Fabric CA v1.5.14 changes the default to utilize the more secure mechanism.
If you have an older Fabric CA client you can still utilize the prior mechanism by
setting the following environment variable on the Fabric CA server:
FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3=true
Known Vulnerabilities
None.
Resolved Vulnerabilities
None.
v1.5.14
v1.5.14 Release Notes - January 27, 2025

v1.5.13
v1.5.13 Release Notes - September 20, 2024
v1.5.13 updates code dependencies.
Dependencies
Fabric CA v1.5.13 has been tested with the following dependencies:
- Go 1.23.1
- Ubuntu 20.04 (for Docker images)
- Databases
- PostgreSQL 13
- MySQL 8.0
Changes, Known Issues, and Workarounds
None.
Known Vulnerabilities
-
FABC-174 Commands can be manipulated to delete identities or affiliations
This vulnerability can be resolved in one of two ways:
-
Use HTTPS (TLS) so that the authorization header is not in clear text.
-
The token generation/authentication mechanism was improved to optionally prevent
token reuse. As of v1.4 a more secure token can be used by setting environment variable:
FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3=false
However, it cannot be set to false until all clients have
been updated to generate the more secure token and tolerate
FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3=false.
The Fabric CA client has been updated in v1.4 to generate the more secure token.
The Fabric SDKs will be updated by v2.0 timeframe to generate the more secure token,
at which time the default for Fabric CA server will change to:
FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3=false -
Resolved Vulnerabilities
None.
