Version 1.145.0-01 (October 2022)

  • Notable bug fix

    • Releases 142 and above fix a bug where a manifest scan processed pom.xml files inside a META-INF directory. Files in this directory, in most cases (specifically for uber/shaded archives), do not represent the manifest file for the target application to be scanned. All pom.xml files inside a META-INF directory from release 142 and above are now ignored during a manifest scan.

  • Provide the latest features for Nexus Lifecycle 145

Version 1.144.0-05 (September 2022)

Version 1.130.0-01 (December 2021)

  • Update logback Library Version in IQ
    • Nexus IQ Server does not use log4j versions and uses logback instead. It is therefore not at risk from vulnerabilities impacting log4j.
      However, because of a low/moderate vulnerability existing in "logback", we're taking precautionary measures by updating the logback library version used in Nexus IQ products.
