Go 1.25.7 is included with security patches for crypto/tls and crypto/x509. ### Security Updates - **Go 1.25.7 security update**: Updated Go runtime to 1.25.7 (2026-02-04) which includes security fixes for the go command, crypto/tls, and crypto/x509, plus compiler bug fixes. All deployments should upgrade to benefit from these patches (#3001) ### New Features - **Kubernetes deployment metadata in diagnostics**: Health diagnostics via `mc support diag` now include deployment metadata (operator version, container images, Helm chart versions) for Kubernetes-managed clusters. The AIStor operator writes metadata to a Kubernetes secret, which is synced to MinIO pods and included in the diagnostics output (#3003) ### Performance Improvements - **Singleflight deduplication to prevent thundering herd**: Added singleflight coalescing for Delta snapshot cache, table authorization, and LDAP IAM store policy lookups. Concurrent requests for the same resource now share a single storage read instead of duplicating work, eliminating cache stampede under load (#2985) - **Reduced lock contention with xsync.Map and shardlock**: Replaced `sync.RWMutex` + map patterns with lock-free concurrent data structures (`xsync.Map`) and sharded RWMutex (`shardlock`) across bucket metadata, metacache manager, tier metrics, event target list, delta-sharing auth, and bucket targets. Reduces contention in high-traffic code paths (#2919) - **Cached DNS SRV lookups for LDAP**: DNS SRV record lookups are now cached with a 5-minute TTL using singleflight-backed caching, reducing redundant DNS queries during LDAP login storms. Also migrated from deprecated `ldap.Dial`/`DialTLS` to `ldap.DialURL` (#2911) ### Bug Fixes - **Fixed rolling upgrade failures due to handler ID reordering**: Handler IDs in the internal RPC protocol were inadvertently reordered, causing `Invalid Handler` errors during rolling upgrades from RELEASE.2025-12-20 to RELEASE.2026-02-02. Handler IDs are now appended at the end with a stability test to prevent future reordering (#2977) - **Fixed capacity fields returning zero in DataUsageInfo API**: The admin DataUsageInfo API with `?capacity=true` always returned zero for `TotalCapacity`, `TotalUsedCapacity`, and `TotalFreeCapacity` because JSON was marshalled before capacity values were populated (#3012) - **Fixed LDAP/OpenID purge running before providers are ready**: IAM purge routines now wait for LDAP and OpenID providers to be fully initialized before running, preventing undesired behavior when servers are enabled but not yet contactable (#3002) - **Fixed inventory job deadlock and spurious context cancellation**: Encapsulated `periodicSaver` lifecycle with explicit Start/Stop methods, preventing `SaveMetaNow()` from deadlocking when the saver has exited and eliminating spurious "context canceled" errors on successful job completions (#2981) - **Fixed AppendObject in extended naming mode**: AppendObject operations now correctly use encoded object names for disk operations while preserving original names for encryption key derivation, resolving failures when `MINIO_OBJECT_NAMING=on` is enabled (#2972) - **Fixed config file parsing with spaces around `=`**: `MINIO_CONFIG_ENV_FILE` now trims whitespace from keys and values, matching systemd `EnvironmentFile=` behavior. Previously, aligned config files with spaces around `=` silently failed because keys contained trailing spaces (#2916) - **Fixed NDJSON content type for webhook log targets**: Webhook targets now set `Content-Type: application/x-ndjson` when sending log entries, ensuring receivers can properly parse newline-delimited JSON payloads (#2909) - **Fixed tables staged-to-live recovery semantics**: Changed recovery from roll-forward to roll-back behavior when a pointer update succeeds but registry update fails. Since the client never received a success response, rolling back is the correct recovery action (#2995) - **Fixed v3 metrics bucket limit**: Reverted the bucket limit for v3 metrics from 1000 back to 10. The multidimensional response structure makes a 100x increase untenable (#3007) - **Hardened Kubernetes JWT validation**: Added safe type assertion checks in `ValidateServiceAccountJWT` to prevent potential nil pointer dereference panics (#2978) - **Fixed tables metadata pointer cache invalidation**: Table metadata pointer cache entries are now properly cleared on delete operations (#2961) --- ## Upgrade Instructions For detailed upgrade instructions, please read: https://docs.min.io/enterprise/aistor-object-store/upgrade-aistor-server/ Platform-specific upgrade guides: - **Linux/Bare Metal**: https://docs.min.io/enterprise/aistor-object-store/upgrade-aistor-server/upgrade-aistor-linux/ - **Kubernetes with Helm**: https://docs.min.io/enterprise/aistor-object-store/upgrade-aistor-server/upgrade-aistor-kubernetes-helm/ ### New Configuration Options - Kubernetes deployment metadata is automatically collected when the AIStor operator writes to `/tmp/minio/deployment.json` in MinIO pods. No additional configuration is required. ### Support For enterprise support: - SUBNET Support: https://subnet.min.io - Documentation: https://docs.min.io
