April 2026

2 Commits • 1 Features

Apr 1, 2026

April 2026 highlights for fleetdm/fleet: - OSV Vulnerability Scanning for Ubuntu introduced and tightly integrated into the vulnerability pipeline (scan, artifact sync/refresh, detection, and cleanup). Improved Ubuntu package/kernel version matching increases OSV detection accuracy. Added ResolvedInVersion tracking to capture fixed versions and support end-to-end validation. Automated tests cover OSV sync, artifact handling, analyzer logic, and cleanup; configuration flag and expected fixtures updated to reflect the new data source. - Bug fix: Set ResolvedInVersion for OSV vulnerability scanning, addressing the root cause related to tracking fixed versions across OSV detections (aligns with issue #40057). Automated tests added; QA performed to validate end-to-end flow. Overall, the work enhances vulnerability coverage for Ubuntu, improves detection precision, and strengthens release readiness with automated testing and configuration controls.
