|
||||
## Version 1.5.0
|
||||
(2015-02-03)
|
||||
|

This release fixes an issue related to mounting volumes on `create`. Details available in the [Github milestone](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues?q=milestone%3A1.4.1+is%3Aclosed).
|
||||
|
||||
##Version 1.4.0
|
||||
(2014-12-11)
|
||||
|
||||
This release provides a number of new features, but is mainly focused on bug
|
||||
fixes and improvements to platform stability and security.
|
||||
|
||||
For a complete list of patches, fixes, and other improvements, see the [merge PR on GitHub](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/9345).

*New Features*
|
||||
|
||||
* You can now add labels to the Docker daemon using key=value pairs defined with
|
||||
the new `--label` flag. The labels are displayed by running `docker info`. In
|
||||
addition, `docker info` also now returns an ID and hostname field. For more
|
||||
information, see the
|
||||
[command line reference](http://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/cli/#daemon).
|
||||
* The `ENV` instruction in the `Dockerfile` now supports arguments in the form
|
||||
of `ENV name=value name2=value2..`. For more information, see the
|
||||
[command line reference](http://docs.docker.com/reference/builder/#env)
|
||||
* Introducing a new, still
|
||||
[experimental, overlayfs storage driver](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/7619/).
|
||||
* You can now add filters to `docker events` to filter events by event name,
|
||||
container, or image. For more information, see the
|
||||
[command line reference](http://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/cli/#events).
|
||||
* The `docker cp` command now supports copying files from the filesystem of a
|
||||
container's volumes. For more information, see the
|
||||
[remote API reference](http://docs.docker.com/reference/api/docker_remote_api/).
|
||||
* The `docker tag` command has been fixed so that it correctly honors `--force`
|
||||
when overriding a tag for existing image. For more information, see
|
||||
the [command line reference](http://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/cli/#tag).
|
||||
|
||||
* Container volumes are now initialized during `docker create`. For more information, see
|
||||
the [command line reference](http://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/cli/#create).
|
||||
|
||||
*Security Fixes*
|
||||
|
||||
Patches and changes were made to address the following vulnerabilities:
|
||||
|
||||
* CVE-2014-9356: Path traversal during processing of absolute symlinks.
|
||||
Absolute symlinks were not adequately checked for traversal which created a
|
||||
vulnerability via image extraction and/or volume mounts.
|
||||
* CVE-2014-9357: Escalation of privileges during decompression of LZMA (.xz)
|
||||
archives. Docker 1.3.2 added `chroot` for archive extraction. This created a
|
||||
vulnerability that could allow malicious images or builds to write files to the
|
||||
host system and escape containerization, leading to privilege escalation.
|
||||
* CVE-2014-9358: Path traversal and spoofing opportunities via image
|
||||
identifiers. Image IDs passed either via `docker load` or registry communications
|
||||
were not sufficiently validated. This created a vulnerability to path traversal
|
||||
attacks wherein malicious images or repository spoofing could lead to graph
|
||||
corruption and manipulation.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** the above CVEs are also patched in Docker 1.3.3, which was released
|
||||
> concurrently with 1.4.0.
|
||||
|
||||
*Runtime fixes*
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed an issue that caused image archives to be read slowly.
|
||||
|
||||
*Client fixes*
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed a regression related to STDIN redirection.
|
||||
* Fixed a regression involving `docker cp` when the current directory is the
|
||||
destination.
|
||||
* The Docker daemon has now supports for IPv6 networking between containers
|
||||
and on the `docker0` bridge. For more information see the
|
||||
[IPv6 networking reference](/articles/networking/#ipv6).
|
||||
* Docker container filesystems can now be set to`--read-only`, restricting your
|
||||
container to writing to volumes [PR# 10093](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/10093).
|
||||
* A new `docker stats CONTAINERID` command has been added to allow users to view a
|
||||
continuously updating stream of container resource usage statistics. See the
|
||||
[`stats` command line reference](/reference/commandline/cli/#stats) and the
|
||||
[container `stats` API reference](/reference/api/docker_remote_api_v1.17/#get-container-stats-based-on-resource-usage).
|
||||
**Note**: this feature is only enabled for the `libcontainer` exec-driver at this point.
|
||||
* Users can now specify the file to use as the `Dockerfile` by running
|
||||
`docker build -f alternate.dockerfile .`. This will allow the definition of multiple
|
||||
`Dockerfile`s for a single project. See the [`docker build` command reference](
|
||||
/reference/commandline/cli/#build) for more information.
|
||||
* The v1 Open Image specification has been created to document the current Docker image
|
||||
format and metadata. Please see [the Open Image specification document](
|
||||
https://github.com/docker/docker/blob/master/image/spec/v1.md) for more details.
|
||||
* This release also includes a number of significant performance improvements in
|
||||
build and image management ([PR #9720](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/9720),
|
||||
[PR #8827](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/8827))
|
||||
* The `docker inspect` command now lists ExecIDs generated for each `docker exec` process.
|
||||
See [PR #9800](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/9800)) for more details.
|
||||
* The `docker inspect` command now shows the number of container restarts when there
|
||||
is a restart policy ([PR #9621](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/9621))
|
||||
* This version of Docker is built using Go 1.4

@ -90,3 +56,10 @@ An idiosyncrasy in AUFS prevents permissions from propagating predictably

* **Docker Hub incompatible with Safari 8**
|
||||
Docker Hub has multiple issues displaying on Safari 8, the default browser
|
||||
for OS X 10.10 (Yosemite). Users should access the hub using a different
|
||||
browser. Most notably, changes in the way Safari handles cookies means that the
|
||||
user is repeatedly logged out. For more information, see the [Docker
|
||||
forum post](https://forums.docker.com/t/new-safari-in-yosemite-issue/300).
