2.0.1 - 2022-05-18

Fixed

  • Fix Maven publish artifact ID.

2.0.0 - 2022-05-18

Changed

  • The Java tracer Jar file is now called cs-java-tracer.jar, and the packages are called cs-java-tracer-VERSION.zip and cs-java-tracer-VERSION.tar.

1.8.2 - 2022-03-30

Added

  • Add nonsensitive version: this version of agent doesn't write sensitive cryptographic material to the trace.
  • Add parameter for nonsensitive mode: cryptosense.agent.sensitiveSalt.
    • This enables the user to force salt reuse for hashing of sensitive key material in the nonsensitive version of the tracer.

1.8.1 - 2021-09-14

Fixed

  • Fix package upload in CI.

1.8.0 - 2021-09-14

Changed

  • The tracer now uses an allow list to determine which methods to trace. This means it will no longer trace methods introduced in new versions of the root classes unless we explicitly add them to the lists or they overload a method we already trace.

Fixed

  • Fix deadlocks occurring in some situations where the tracer logs a call while logging another call (nested logging).

1.7.0 - 2021-02-05

Added

  • Add new -D parameter -Dcryptosense.agent.maxTraceSize that takes an integer value (in MB). Default is 4096, i.e. 4GB if not specified. Setting a value of 0 means there is no limit.

Deprecated

  • Deprecate -Dcryptosense.agent.unlimitedTraceSize. Superseded by -Dcryptosense.agent.maxTraceSize.
