Release Notes

step-security/harden-runner (step-security/harden-runner)

v2.16.0

Compare Source

What's Changed

  • Updated action.yml to use node24
  • Security fix: Fixed a medium severity vulnerability where the egress block policy could be bypassed via DNS over HTTPS (DoH) by proxying DNS queries through a permitted resolver, allowing data exfiltration even with a restrictive allowed-endpoints list. This issue only affects the Community Tier; the Enterprise Tier is not affected. See GHSA-46g3-37rh-v698 for details.
  • Security fix: Fixed a medium severity vulnerability where the egress block policy could be bypassed via DNS queries over TCP to external resolvers, allowing outbound network communication that evades configured network restrictions. This issue only affects the Community Tier; the Enterprise Tier is not affected. See GHSA-g699-3x6g-wm3g for details.

v2.15.0

What's Changed
Windows and macOS runner support

We are excited to announce that Harden Runner now supports Windows and macOS runners, extending runtime security beyond Linux for the first time.

Insights for Windows and macOS runners will be displayed in the same consistent format you are already familiar with from Linux runners, giving you a unified view of runtime activity across all platforms.

v2.14.2

Compare Source

What's Changed

Security fix: Fixed a medium severity vulnerability where outbound network connections using sendto, sendmsg, and sendmmsg socket system calls could bypass audit logging when using egress-policy: audit. This issue only affects the Community Tier in audit mode; block mode and Enterprise Tier were not affected. See GHSA-cpmj-h4f6-r6pq for details.

v2.14.1

Compare Source

What's Changed

  1. In some self-hosted environments, the agent could briefly fall back to public DNS resolvers during startup if the system DNS was not yet available. This behavior was unintended for GitHub-hosted runners and has now been fixed to prevent any use of public DNS resolvers.

  2. Fixed npm audit vulnerabilities

v2.14.0

Compare Source

What's Changed
  • Selective installation: Harden-Runner now skips installation on GitHub-hosted runners when the repository has a custom property skip_harden_runner, allowing organizations to opt out specific repos.
  • Avoid double install: The action no longer installs Harden-Runner if it’s already present on a GitHub-hosted runner, which could happen when a composite action also installs it.

  • [ERROR] [CVE-2022-24823] CVE-2022-24823 - Netty is an open-source, asynchronous event-driven network application framework. The package io.netty:netty-codec-httpprior to version 4.1.77.Final contains an insufficient fix for CVE-2021-21290. When Netty's multipart decoders are used local information disclosure can occur via the local system temporary directory if temporary storing uploads on the disk is enabled. This only impacts applications running on Java version 6 and lower. Additionally, this vulnerability impacts code running on Unix-like systems, and very old versions of Mac OSX and Windows as they all share the system temporary directory between all users. Version 4.1.77.Final contains a patch for this vulnerability. As a workaround, specify one's ownjava.io.tmpdir when starting the JVM or use DefaultHttpDataFactory.setBaseDir\(...\) to set the directory to something that is only readable by the current user.

The package `io.netty:netty-codec-http` prior to version 4.1.77.Final contains an insufficient fix for CVE-2021-21290. When Netty's multipart decoders are used local information disclosure can occur via the local system temporary directory if temporary storing uploads on the disk is enabled. This only impacts applications running on Java version 6 and lower. Additionally, this vulnerability impacts code running on Unix-like systems, and very old versions of Mac OSX and Windows as they all share the system temporary directory between all users. Version 4.1.77.Final contains a patch for this vulnerability. As a workaround, specify one's own `java.io.tmpdir` when starting the JVM or use DefaultHttpDataFactory.setBaseDir(...) to set the directory to something that is only readable by the current user."
