Kubernetes compatibility

This release is compatible with the following Kubernetes versions:

Kubernetes version Minimum required
v1.31 >= 1.31.0
v1.32 >= 1.32.0
v1.33 >= 1.33.0

[!NOTE]
Note that the Flux project offers support only for the latest three minor versions of Kubernetes.
Backwards compatibility with older versions of Kubernetes and OpenShift is offered by vendors such as
ControlPlane that provide enterprise support for Flux.

OpenShift compatibility

Flux can be installed on Red Hat OpenShift cluster directly from OperatorHub using Flux Operator.
The operator allows the configuration of Flux multi-tenancy lockdown, network policies, persistent storage, sharding, vertical scaling and the synchronization of the cluster state from Git repositories, OCI artifacts, and S3-compatible storage.

Upgrade procedure

Upgrade Flux from v2.5.0 to v2.6.0 by following the upgrade guide.

To upgrade the APIs, make sure the new CRDs and controllers are deployed, and then change the manifests in Git:

  1. Set apiVersion: source.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v1 in the YAML files that contain OCIRepository definitions.
  2. Add an annotation api.fluxcd.io/upgrade: "v2.6.0" to the OCIRepository resources. (this is not required if Flux Operator is used for upgrade)
  3. Commit, push, and reconcile the API version changes.

Bumping the APIs version in manifests can be done gradually.
It is advised to not delay this procedure as the deprecated versions will be removed after 6 months.

v2.2.3

Compare Source

Highlights

Flux v2.2.3 is a patch release which comes with various fixes and improvements. Users are encouraged to upgrade for the best experience.

💡 For upgrading to Flux v2.2, please see the procedure documented in 2.2.0.

This release updates the Kubernetes dependencies to v1.28.6 and various other dependencies to their latest version to patch upstream CVEs.

All controllers are built with Go 1.21.6 using Alpine Linux 3.19.1 base image.

[!NOTE]
Due to breaking changes in Helm v3.14.0, the helm-controller version included in this patch release comes with Helm SDK v3.13.3.
A preview build of the helm-controller with the latest Helm SDK is available at helm-controller#879.

Fixes:

  • Reconciling empty directories and directories without Kubernetes manifests no longer results in an error. This regressing bug was introduced with the kustomize-controller upgrade to Kustomize v5.3 and has been fixed in this patch release.
  • The regression due to which Roles and ClusterRoles with aggregated roles were continuous reconciled by kustomize-controller has been fixed.
  • Fix the Git revision displaying when notification-controller sends alerts to Grafana.
  • The HelmRelease status reporting has been improved by ensuring that the stale failure conditions get updated after failure recovery.

See the components changelog for a full list of bug fixes.
