Release Notes

Release 2.13.1

Portainer:

Release 2.13

Known issues

  • When provisioning a Civo cluster while there are multiple default networks defined on the Civo account, the environment will fail to provision and Portainer will end up waiting for the environment to be ready indefinitely. This can be resolved from the Civo console by deleting the cluster and using a non-default network for the provision.

Breaking changes

  • The minimum TLS version of Portainer was changed from 1.2 to 1.3. If you are running a proxy in front of Portainer with HTTPS you will need to ensure it is configured to support TLS 1.3.

  • Standard users can browse registries including edit and delete

  • Introduced the ability for non admin users to browse image registries

  • Added strong password policy for all Portainer internal users. When using a weak password and logging in you will be required to update your password.
