Feature	Description
CVE Coverage Update
	As part of the 22.12 release, Prisma Cloud has rolled out updates to its vulnerability data for Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) in the Intelligence Stream. The new additions are as follows: Fixed CVE-2022-41717 and CVE-2022-27664: Updated the golang.org/x/net Go module to v0.5.0. WAAS deployments were affected if you have a HTTP2 applications and have deployed WAAS to inspect HTTP2 traffic. Upgrade your Prisma Cloud Defenders if you use WAAS to inspect HTTP2 traffic. Fixed CVE-2023-0247: Updated the bits-and-blooms/bloom Go module to v3.3.1. CVE-2022-41721 is included in the Intelligence Stream feed. Prisma Cloud doesn’t use MaxBytesHandler and this vulnerability doesn’t impact Prisma Cloud components. You can continue to run any of the supported Prisma Cloud releases without risk from this vulnerability. To remove the vulnerability alert, upgrade to the latest 22.12 release. If you are not ready to upgrade right away, add an exception in the default Ignore Twistlock Components rule. Go to Defend > Vulnerabilities > Images > Deployed to add the exception to suppress the vulnerability alerts for CVE-2022-41721. CVE-2022-1996 is included in the Intelligence Stream feed. The Go-Restful package is a transitive dependency that is pulled with k8s.io/client-go and `k8s.io/kube-openapi`and is not being used directly in the Compute Defender and Console, thus it is suppressed. The ubi-minimal base image packages are updated to the latest.
Enhancements
Added support for cgroupv2:	Scans : Full support for cgroup v1 and cgroup v2. Hybrid mode not supported: this will not fail the scan, but the scan will run without the process limitation protection. WAAS : In-Line firewall: Full support for cgroup v1 and cgroup v2. Hybrid mode: partially supported. It is supported if the memory and CPU controllers are both under the legacy hierarchy (v1). Otherwise, the firewall will fail. Out-Of-Band firewall: Only cgroup v1 is fully supported. Cgroup v2: not supported. The firewall will run but the memory limit of the defender’s cgroup will not be increased. Hybrid mode: partially supported. Same as WAAS In-Line. Support : cgroup v2 is not supported for Talos and other operating systems that don’t have systemd.
