Project: Kyverno (Provisioning / Security & Compliance)
File: CHANGELOG.md

Added `--tufRoot` and `--tufMirror` flags to configure tuf for custom sigstore deployments. Remove description from deprecated fields in CRDs Remove CLI `kyverno test manifest ...` commands (replaced by `kyverno create ...`). Added `--caSecretName` and `--tlsSecretName` flags to control names of certificate related secrets. Added match conditions support in kyverno config map. Deprecated flag `--imageSignatureRepository`. Will be removed in 1.12. Use per rule configuration `verifyImages.Repository` instead. Added `--aggregateReports` flag for reports controller to enable/disable aggregated reports (default value is `true`). Added `--policyReports` flag for reports controller to enable/disable policy reports (default value is `true`). Renamed CLI flag `--compact` to `--detailed-results` (and changed default value from `true` to `false`). Changed the default value of `--enablePolicyException` from `false` to `true`. Removed `GenerateRequest` CRD. Refactored `kyverno` chart, migration instructions are available in chart `README.md`. Image references in the json context are not mutated to canonical form anymore, do not assume a registry domain is always present. Added support for configuring webhook annotations in the config map through `webhookAnnotations` stanza. Added `excludeRoles` and `excludeClusterRoles` support in configuration. Added new flag `skipResourceFilters` to reports controller to enable/disable considering resource filters in the background (default value is `true`) Removed hardcoded defaults for `excludeGroups` and `excludeUsernames`. They are always read from the config map. Flag `backgroundScanInterval` was added to force background scans at regular intervals (default value is `1h`). Flag `splitPolicyReport` was removed, was unused and marked for removal in 1.9. Webhook is no longer updated to match `pods/ephemeralcontainers` when policy only specifies `pods`. If users want to match on `pods/ephemeralcontainers`, they must specify `pods/ephemeralcontainers` in the policy. Webhook is no longer updated to match `services/status` when policy only specifies `services`. If users want to match on `services/status`, they must specify `services/status` in the policy. Flag `autogenInternals` was removed, policy mutation has been removed. Flag `leaderElectionRetryPeriod` was added to control leader election renewal frequency (default value is `2s`). Support upper case `Audit` and `Enforce` in `.spec.validationFailureAction` of the Kyverno policy, failure actions `audit` and `enforce` are deprecated and will be removed in `v1.11.0`. Flag `profileAddress` was added to configure address of profiling server (default value is `""`). A new flag `backgroundScanWorkers` to configure the number of background scan workers (default value is `2`). A new flag `backgroundScan` to enable/disable kyverno background scans (default value is `true`). When this is set to `false`, kyverno will not perform background scans and won't trigger continuous evaluation of policies. A new flag `admissionReports` to enable/disable kyverno admission reports (default value is `true`). When this is set to `false`, kyverno will not create admission reports. If both `backgroundScan` and `admissionReports` are set to `false` the entire reports system will be disabled. A new flag `reportsChunkSize` to split reports according to the number of results contained in the report (default value is `1000`). This can be disabled by setting the flag value to `0`. Deprecated `splitPolicyReport` flag, splitting reports per policy is always enabled, keeping it for backward compatibility, will be removed in future version. `ReportChangeRequest` and `ClusterReportChangeRequest` CRDs have been removed and replaced by `AdmissionReport`, `ClusterAdmissionReport`, `BackgroundScanReport` and `ClusterBackgroundScanReport` CRDs. A new flag `protectManagedResources` to enable kyverno managed resources protection (default value is `false`). When this is enabled, kyverno managed resources can only be modified or deleted by the

A new flag `maxQueuedEvents` is added to the Kyverno main container, this flag sets the up-limit of the events that are queued internally. A new flag `maxReportChangeRequests` is added to the Kyverno main container, this flag sets the up-limit of reportchangerequests that a namespace can take, or clusterreportchangerequests if matching kinds are cluster-wide resources. The default limit is set to 1000, and it's recommended to configure it to a small threshold on large clusters. Here the large clusters are considered that a policy report has more than 1k results. `status.ready` of the policy is deprecated in favor of `policy.IsReady()`. The implementation was changed to use `status.conditions` that offer more flexibility. The `status.ready` will be kept for a couple of releases until we remove it in the future. Deprecated flags have been removed. Flags that were overlapping with config map based configuration were removed (`filterK8sResources`, `excludeGroupRole`, `excludeUsername`). They can now be configured using the config map only. Helm charts are changed to enforce PodDisruptionBudget for multi-replica clusters and PDB is removed from install manifests. `anyPattern` for Kyverno validate policies breaks in Kubernetes `v1.23.0`-`v1.23.2`, and the fix is being tracked by this and will be available in `v1.23.3`. To use `any/all` conditions for policies that use `preconditons` and `deny.conditions`, the user can go to this as a good starting point. The Helm CRDs was switched back to kyverno chart. To upgrade using Helm, please refer to https://github.com/kyverno/website/pull/304. With the change of dynamic webhooks, the readiness of the policy is reflected by `.status.ready`, When ready, it means the policy is ready to serve the admission requests. To add a consistent style in flag names the following flags have been deprecated `webhooktimeout`, `gen-workers`,`disable-metrics`, `background-scan`, `auto-update-webhooks`, `profile-port`, `metrics-port` these will be removed in 1.6.0. The new flags are `webhookTimeout`, `genWorkers`, `disableMetrics`, `backgroundScan`, `autoUpdateWebhooks`,`profilePort`, `metricsPort` (#1991).
