This changelog enumerates all user-facing changes made to Kroxylicious, in reverse chronological order. For changes that effect a public API, the deprecation policy is followed.
Format <github issue/pr number>: <short description>.
- #3620: Removed Deprecated clientSaslAuthenticationSuccess from FilterContext
- #3624: feat(operator): set Kubernetes client User-Agent to
kroxylicious-operator/<version>for API server audit log identification - #3565: build(deps): bump kubernetes-client.version from 7.5.2 to 7.6.1
- #3514: build(deps): build(deps-dev): bump org.yaml:snakeyaml from 2.5 to 2.6
- #3564: build(deps): bump apicurio-registry.version from 3.1.6 to 3.2.1
- The deprecated method
FilterContext#clientSaslAuthenticationSuccess(String, String)is removed. Filter authors must useFilterContext#clientSaslAuthenticationSuccess(String, Subject)to announce a successful SASL authentication to the other filters in the chain.
- #3570: build(deps): bump netty.version from 4.2.10.Final to 4.2.12.Final
- #3535: bugfix: bootstrapServers containing whitespace parsed unexpectedly
- #3496: feat(runtime): make Netty shutdown durations configurable
- #3457: refactor(config): register DurationSerde globally on ObjectMapper rather than per-field (see note)
- #3534: (docs) Include our Javadocs on kroxylicious.io website
- #3449: Add Connection Expiration filter that closes client connections after a configurable maximum age, helping to rebalance connections across proxy instances in dynamic environments like Kubernetes.
- #2697 EntityIsolationFilter (restricted to groupId and transactionalId entity type only)
- #3007 Allow schema validation to use a schema registry protected by an internally signed certificate.
- #2890 Update record-validation to Apicurio v3.
- #3383: fix(operator): the operator now uses Server-Side Apply for all dependent resources. This is a no-op change for users: existing deployments are unaffected and externally-applied SSA patches (e.g. annotations or env vars added by observability tooling) will now survive operator reconciles. Users upgrading from a prior release may observe one additional reconcile cycle as Kubernetes transfers field ownership to the SSA manager.
- #3444: feat(authorization): support v13 Produce with topicIds
- #3444: feat(authorization): support v13-v18 Fetch with topicIds
- #3358: feat(encryption): produce and fetch tolerate topicIds
- #3506: feat(validation): support v13+ Produce with topicIds
- #3448: feat(authorization): support authorization of group new consumer protocol group
- #3399: feat(operator): add
KafkaProxyIngress.spec.openShiftRoute
- #3496: The
shutdownQuietPeriodSecondsfield undernetwork.proxyandnetwork.managementis deprecated. Use the newshutdownQuietPeriodfield instead, which accepts Go-style durations (e.g."2s","500ms") and adds support for sub-second precision. A newshutdownTimeoutfield is also available to configure the previously hardcoded 15-second Netty shutdown timeout. - Apicurio v3 has changed the default way schemas are identified. They are now referred to using
contentIdrather thanglobalId. The reason for this change was to allow interop with Confluent based kafka clients. Unfortunately, this causes breaking changes for users ofschemaValidationrules of the record-validation feature.- The config field
apicurioContentIdis removed. It is replaced with a new config fieldapicurioId. - This field
apicurioIdrefers to thecontentIdof the schema. - You must also ensure that any Kafka client embedding schema identifiers into records (using headers or magic bytes) are updated to send the
contentIdrather than theglobalId. Refer to the Apicurio upgrade documentation for details. - Alternatively, the old behaviour can be restored by setting the config option
wireFormatVersiontoV2. In this mode, theapicurioIdrefers to theglobalIdand clients must sendglobalId.V2mode is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
- The config field
- The operator now has the ability to enable external access to a Virtual Cluster via OpenShift Routes using
KafkaProxyIngress.spec.openShiftRoute. This enables off-cluster client access on OpenShift, with graceful rejection when the Route API is unavailable. - The preview Authorization Filter no longer supports ConsumerGroupHeartbeat version 1 RPCs, see #3561.
- The Proxy now registers a custom Duration serialization/deserialization module on the config ObjectMapper, meaning Filter Config classes can use Duration and it will be serialized to/from golang-style strings (e.g "1h" for 1 hour) without adding any annotations to your parameters.
- Javadoc for public APIs will now be published on the website, alongside the other per-version documentation when we create a new release
- #3250: Added
storeTypefield to thetrustAnchorRefproperty of the KafkaService and VirtualKafkaCluster CRs. - #3331: fix(crd): make the spec object required across all the CRDs except KafkaProxy.

ResponseFilter#onResponseaccess to the api-version - #3035: fix(sasl inspector): Fix config parsing error if SaslInspector with subject builder
- #2861: Add JWS Signature validator
- Running Kroxylicious on Java 17 is deprecated. The minimum required Java version will be raised to 21 in a future release.
- Containers have been upgraded to use Java 21.
- The four argument forms of
RequestFilter#onRequestandResponseFilter#onResponseare deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Implement the five argument form, which includes theapiVersioninstead. - A JSON Web Signature (JWS) Signature validator has been added. WARNING: This validator does NOT include JSON Web Token (JWT) validation (expiration, issuer, etc. are NOT checked).
- Curly-brace style topicName tokens are no longer supported in the Record Encryption TemplateKekSelector template.
templateshould use$(topicName)instead of${topicName}. The was deprecated in version 0.11.0. - Idle connection timeout support added with two optional configuration properties under
network.proxy:unauthenticatedIdleTimeout- Applies to connections where authentication cannot be detectedauthenticatedIdleTimeout- Applies to connections with established identities Both properties use Go-style duration format (e.g.,30s,5m,1h30m) with supported units:d,h,m,s,ms,μs/us,ns.
- A new metric
kroxylicious_client_to_proxy_disconnects_totaltracks client-to-proxy disconnections with acauselabel to distinguish between:idle_timeout- Connection exceeded the configured idle timeout durationclient_closed- Client initiated the connection closeserver_closed- Backend server closed the connection, causing the proxy to close the client connection
- The Authorization Filter can now enforce authorization of Transactional IDs.
The
AclAuthorizerServicecan importio.kroxylicious.filter.authorization.TransactionalIdResourceto authorizeWRITEandDESCRIBEwith parity with Apache Kafka ACL authorization. Backwards compatibility is preserved, existingAclAuthorizerServiceRules configurations that only importTopicResourcewill allow all Transactional ID operations. - The operator will now emit a deprecation warning if it encounters a KafkaProxy object without a
specobject. Such KafkaProxy CRs should be updated to have an emptyspecobject.
- #2922: build(deps): bump kafka.version from 4.1.0 to 4.1.1
- #1318: Add FilterContext#topicNames to enable filters to retrieve names for topic ids

- #2904: SaslInspection Filter publishes Subject using pluggable SaslSubjectBuilder
- #2951: Allow SaslInspection to function as a barrier
Subject,PrincipalandUserprincipal added toio.kroxylicious.proxy.authenticationpackage.Subject authenticatedSubject();added toFilterContext, enabling Filters to access the current authenticated Subject.io.kroxylicious.proxy.authentication.SaslSubjectBuilderhas been added tokroxylicious-api. This is an optional Service interface that SASL-oriented Filters can choose to load.FilterContext#clientSaslAuthenticationSuccess(String mechanism, String authorizedId)is deprecated. UseFilterContext#clientSaslAuthenticationSuccess(String mechanism, Subject subject)instead. Initially the framework expects the Subject to contain a singleio.kroxylicious.proxy.authentication.Userprincipal which contains theauthorizedId, though this may change in the future.- A Virtual Cluster now has a pluggable
io.kroxylicious.proxy.authentication.TransportSubjectBuilderassociated with it. This new Service is responsible for building aSubjectfrom mTLS certificates presented by the client to the proxy. This is configurable on the virtual cluster using thesubjectBuilder:virtualClusters: - name: demo subjectBuilder: type: YourSubjectBuilderType config: your: "configObject"
- A new module
kroxylicious-authorizer-apihas been added. This containsio.kroxylicious.authorizer.service.Authorizer, an interface which abstracts making an allow/deny decision about some Subject performing some Action on a resource. - The
SaslInspectionfilter can be configured with a pluggableSaslSubjectBuilderusing configuration like:type: SaslInspection config: subjectBuilder: YourSubjectBuilder subjectBuilderConfig: your: "config" enabledMechanisms: - SCRAM-SHA-512
AuthorizationFilteris added to the binary distribution and image. Note this is a new experimental Filter, not yet ready for production environments.FilterContextnow offers atopicNamesmethod to map from topic ids to topic names. Caching the result is initially a Filter responsibility.

adminHttpconfiguration property (which was deprecated in 0.11.0) is removed. Usemanagementinstead. Also support for thehostconfiguration property within that object (which was also deprecated in 0.11.0) is removed. UsebindAddressinstead. - breaking kroxylicious-api change.
ListClientMetricsResourcesResponseFilterandListClientMetricsResourcesRequestFilterare removed, replaced withListConfigResourcesResponseFilterandListConfigResourcesRequestFilterdue to the RPC being renamed in kafka-clients. Filters that implement the old interfaces will be incompatible with this version of the proxy and must migrate to the new interfaces. - The 'old' metrics that were deprecated at 0.13.0 are now removed.

- The default behaviour for client authentication has changed, if a Gateway is configured with client trust certificates, then
by default we will require the client to supply certificates. Previously the user had to also configure the clientAuth mode to
REQUIREDto enable this behaviour, the default was to not check the client certificates.

- In the
RecordEncryptionfilter,templateconfiguration property accepted by theTemplateKekSelectornow supports the$(topicName)placeholder parameter. Use of${topicName}is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. - The virtual cluster configuration properties
clusterNetworkAddressConfigProviderandtlsare deprecated. Define a named virtual cluster gateway within thegatewaysarray. - The networking schemes

SniRoutingClusterNetworkAddressConfigProvideris deprecated. Define a virtual cluster gateway withsniHostIdentifiesNodeto express your networking requirements. - The
virtualClustersconfiguration property now expects a list ofvirtualClusterobjects (rather than a mapping ofnametovirtualCluster). Furthermore, thevirtualClusterobject now requires anameconfiguration property. For backward compatibility, support for the map (and values withoutname) continues, but this will be removed in a future release. - As announced at 0.5.0, when configuring TLS, the property

- #1360: Bump kafka.version from 3.7.0 to 3.7.1
- #1322: Introduce FilterDispatchExecutor
- #1154: Apicurio based schema validation filter
- The Record Encryption Filter now uses
AES/GCM/NoPaddingas the transformation String and checks the KMS returns a 256bit DEK. This enables users to configure an alternative JCE Provider in their JRE configuration that offers this algorithm. - FilterFactoryContext#eventLoop() is deprecated, replaced by FilterFactoryContext#filterDispatchExecutor(). This returns FilterDispatchExecutor, a new interface extending ScheduledExecutorService. FilterDispatchExecutor has methods to enable Filters to check if the current thread is the Filter Dispatch Thread and it offers specialized futures, where chained async methods will also run on the Filter Dispatch Thread when no executor is supplied. This is intended to be a tool to make it convenient for Filters to hand off work to uncontrolled threads, then switch back to an execution context where mutation of Filter members is safe.
- Record Encryption Filter: Data Encryption Keys will now be refreshed one hour after creation by default. This is a bugfix for #1139 to ensure we start using new key material after key-encryption-keys are rotated in the KMS within some controlled duration.

- RangeAwarePortPerNodeClusterNetworkAddressConfigProvider is a new ClusterNetworkAddressConfigProvider that is capable of modelling more target topologies using a compact set of ports. Users can declare multiple ranges of node ids that exist in the target cluster and the proxy will map those ranges on to a minimal set of proxy ports. See the Virtual Cluster configuration docs for more information.

- EncryptionVersion 1 is no longer supported, we found that it had diverged from our design document and have corrected it. From release 0.5.0 we guarantee backwards compatibility from EncryptionVersion 2 onwards.
- We have renamed the EnvelopeEncryption filter it is now the RecordEncryption filter. As this is a more accurate description of its role. We have not changed the way we deliver the encryption-at-rest as we are still using Envelope Encryption. Note we have preserved an
EnvelopeEncryptionfactory, albeit deprecated, to avoid runtime failures for users upgrading from0.4.x. - When configuring TLS, the property
filePathfor specifying the location of a file providing the password is now deprecated. UsepasswordFileinstead. - When configuring TLS, it is no longer valid to pass a null inline password like
"storePassword": {"password": null}instead use"storePassword": null - As a result of the work of #909, some superfluous transitive dependencies have been removed from some kroxylicious. If you were relying on those, you will need to adjust your dependencies as your adopt this release.
io.kroxylicious:kroxylicious-filter-test-supportnow contains RecordTestUtils for creating exampleRecord,RecordBatchandMemoryRecords. It also contains assertj assertions for those same classes to enable us to write fluent assertions, accessible viaio.kroxylicious.test.assertj.KafkaAssertions.- The configuration for VaultKMS service has changed.
- Instead of the
vaultUrlconfig key, the provider now requiresvaultTransitEngineUrl. This must provide the complete path to the Transit Engine on the HashiCorp Vault instance (e.g. https://myvault:8200/v1/transit or https://myvault:8200/v1/mynamespace/transit). - The
vaultTokenfield now requires aPasswordProviderobject rather than inline text value. You may pass the token from a file (filename specified by apasswordFilefield) or inline (passwordfield). The latter is not recommended in production environments.
- Instead of the
- The deprecated CompositeFilter interface has been removed.
- Container images for releases will be published to quay.io/kroxylicious/kroxylicious (rather than kroxylicious-developer)
FetchResponseTransformationFilternow uses configuration keytransformationConfig(rather thanconfig). This matches the configuration expected byProduceRequestTransformationFilter.

The Filter API is refactored to be fully asynchronous. Filter API methods such as #onXxxxRequest and onXxxxResponse
now are required to return a CompletionStage<FilterResult>. The FilterResult encapsulates the message to be
forwarded and carries orders (such as close the connection). The context provides factory methods for creating
FilterResult objects.
The default metrics port has changed from 9193 to 9190 to prevent port collisions
Filter Authors can now implement CompositeFilter if they want a single configuration block to contribute multiple Filters to the Filter chain. This enables them to write smaller, more focused Filter implementations but deliver them as a whole behaviour with a single block of configuration in the Kroxylicious configuration yaml. This interface is mutually exclusive with RequestFilter, ResponseFilter or any specific message Filter interfaces.
In the kroxylicious config, the brokerAddressPattern parameter for the PortPerBroker scheme no longer accepts or requires :$(portNumber) suffix. In addition, for the SniRouting scheme the config now enforces that there is no port specifier present on the brokerAddressPattern parameter. Previously, it was accepted but would lead to a failure later.
Kroxylicious configuration no longer requires a non empty filters list, users can leave it unset or configure in an empty
list of filters and Kroxylicious will proxy to the cluster successfully.
The Contributor API for creating filters has been significantly changed.
FilterContributoris renamedFilterFactory.- Filter Authors will now implement one FilterFactory implementation for each Filter implementation. So the cardinality is now one-to-one.
- We now identify which filter we want to load using it's class name or simple class name,
for example
io.kroxylicious.filter.SpecialFilterorSpecialFilter. FilterConstructContextis renamedFilterCreateContext- FilterExecutors is removed from FilterCreateContext and the
eventloop()method is pulled up to FilterCreateContext. - BaseConfig is removed and any Jackson deserializable type can be used as config.
- configuration is no longer part of the FilterCreateContext, it is supplied as a parameter to the
FilterFactory#createFilter(..)method.
The names used to identify port-per-broker and sni-routing schemes in the Kroxylicious configuration have changed:
PortPerBroker->PortPerBrokerClusterNetworkAddressConfigProviderSniRouting->SniRoutingClusterNetworkAddressConfigProvider
The names used to identify micrometer configuration hooks in configuration have changed:
CommonTagsContributor->CommonTagsHookStandardBindersContributor->StandardBindersHook
