Summary

Three new maintenance releases have been made available for Telegraf 1.8.2, InfluxDB 1.6.4 and InfluxDB Enterprise 1.6.4. The InfluxDB Enterprise release includes a critical security fix that requires the use of an internal-shared-secret to address a potential security issue. This change addresses a weakness in JWT authentication used for intra-node communication when authentication is enabled without setting an internal-shared-secret. Additionally, Telegraf has received improvements to its plugins, including support for unsigned integers and fixes for issues with Docker, Filecount, Logparser, MongoDB, MQTT Consumer, Ping, VMware vSphere, and x509 Certificate inputs.
