Beats version HEAD

Breaking changes

Affecting all Beats

  • Fix FQDN being lowercased when used as host.hostname 39993

  • Beats won’t log start up information when running under the Elastic Agent {40390}40390[40390]

  • Filebeat now needs dup3, faccessat2, prctl and setrlimit syscalls to run the journald input. If this input is not being used, the syscalls are not needed. All Beats have those syscalls allowed now because the default seccomp policy is global to all Beats. 40061

  • Beats will rate limit the logs about errors when indexing events on Elasticsearch, logging a summary every 10s. The logs sent to the event log is unchanged. 40157

Auditbeat

Filebeat

  • Convert netflow input to API v2 and disable event normalisation 37901

  • Removed deprecated Squid from Beats. See [migrate-from-deprecated-module] for migration options. 38037

  • Removed deprecated Sonicwall from Beats. Use the SonicWall Firewall Elastic integration instead. 38037

  • Removed deprecated Radware from Beats. See [migrate-from-deprecated-module] for migration options. 38037

  • Removed deprecated Netscout from Beats. See [migrate-from-deprecated-module] for migration options. 38037

  • Removed deprecated Juniper Netscreen from Beats. See [migrate-from-deprecated-module] for migration options. 38037

  • Removed deprecated Impreva from Beats. See [migrate-from-deprecated-module] for migration options. 38037

  • Removed deprecated Cylance from Beats. See [migrate-from-deprecated-module] for migration options. 38037

  • Removed deprecated Bluecoat from Beats. See [migrate-from-deprecated-module] for migration options. 38037

  • Introduce input/netmetrics and refactor netflow input metrics 38055

  • Update Salesforce module to use new Salesforce input. 37509

  • Tag events that come from a filestream in "take over" mode. 39828

  • Fix high IO and handling of a corrupted registry log file. 35893

  • Enable file ingestion to report detailed status to Elastic Agent 40075

  • Filebeat, when running with Elastic-Agent, reports status for Filestream input. 40121

  • Implement Elastic Agent status and health reporting for Winlog Filebeat input. 40163

  • Fix filestream’s registry GC: registry entries will never be removed if clean_inactive is set to "-1". 40258

  • Added ignore_empty_values flag in decode_cef Filebeat processor. 40268

  • Added support for hyphens in extension keys in decode_cef Filebeat processor. 40427

  • Journald: removed configuration options include_matches.or, include_matches.and, backoff, max_backoff, cursor_seek_fallback. 40061

  • Journald: include_matches.match now behaves in the same way as matchers in journalctl. Users should carefully update their input configuration. 40061

  • Journald: seek and since behaviour have been simplified, if there is a cursor (state) seek and since are ignored and the cursor is used. 40061

  • Redis: Added replication role as a field to submitted slowlogs

  • Added container.image.name to journald Filebeat input’s Docker-specific translated fields. 40450

  • Change log.file.path field in awscloudwatch input to nested object. 41099

  • Remove deprecated awscloudwatch field from Filebeat. 41089

  • The performance of ingesting SQS data with the S3 input has improved by up to 60x for queues with many small events. max_number_of_messages config for SQS mode is now ignored, as the new design no longer needs a manual cap on messages. Instead, use number_of_workers to scale ingestion rate in both S3 and SQS modes. The increased efficiency may increase network bandwidth consumption, which can be throttled by lowering number_of_workers. It may also increase number of events stored in memory, which can be throttled by lowering the configured size of the internal queue. 40699

  • System module events now contain input.type: systemlogs instead of input.type: log when harvesting log files. 41061

Heartbeat

Metricbeat

  • Setting period for counter cache for Prometheus remote_write at least to 60sec 38553
