A “maintenance release” is a release that contains fixes for issues that are affecting customers in production environments. We typically communicate 24 hours prior to the release that we will be applying a maintenance release and that there will be a short service disruption. This list only covers fixes to General Release versions.

The list of fixed issues is not finalized until just before the release occurs. When we identify issues to fix in a maintenance release, we attempt to get them into the earliest release possible. Sometimes, we target a specific release but are not able to deliver a fix early enough for full testing. In situations like this, we postpone the fix for a later release and strike out the description in this list.

We number maintenance releases by appending the number of the maintenance release to the General Release number. Vault uses even-numbered releases, while CDMS uses odd-numbered releases. The most recent Vault General Release is 18R1.0, so our maintenance releases for this version are 18R1.0.2, 18R1.0.4, and so on.

Authentication Updates

Release Date: June 1, 2018 | Build Number: N/A

Enhanced Login Experience

With Enhanced Login Experience, Vault stores a customer’s user name and a profile photo (if configured) on the login page after successfully logging into Vault. This change provides an improved user experience and expedites the login process, as users are only required to provide their passwords for future logins. Additionally, Vault automatically directs SSO users to their corporate identity systems. Users who regularly utilize multiple Vault accounts can easily switch from the saved account to another by clicking the Switch user link.

If organizations want to prevent browser and password managers from saving users’ passwords, they can enable the new Allow browsers to save and autofill password field on the login form setting on password-type security policies. This setting appears on all password-type security policies, but will only affect users with Enhanced Login Experience enabled.

Enhanced Login Experience also improves handling of error messages. Transient errors will now display in a notification above the login form and can be dismissed by the user to easily continue with login.

Note that this feature is enabled on a per-user basis using the Enable beta login features setting.
