New Features in Prisma Cloud Compute

Feature
Description
HTTPS Proxy Support for Agentless Scanning
Agentless scanning now supports connections over an HTTPS proxy server. If you use custom certificates for authentication, you can now configure custom certificates for the connection to Console when using Agentless scanning.
Support for Embedding a Defender in a CloudFormation Fargate Task
Prisma Cloud Compute now supports embedding a Defender to a CloudFormation Fargate task in the YAML format, in addition to the JSON format. You can use a full CloudFormation template that contains other objects in addition to the Fargate task to generate a protected Fargate task definition.
Use the Console (
Compute
Manage
Defenders
Deploy
Defenders
) or the APIs (/api/22.06/defenders/fargate.yaml, /api/22.06/defenders/fargate.json) to complete the workflow.
Cloud Native Network Segmentation
The Cloud Native Network Firewall (CNNF) is now renamed as Cloud Native Network Segmentation (CNNS) in
Compute
Radars
Settings
, and you can create policies for enforcing Layer 4 communication from hosts and containers on
Compute
Defend
CNNS
.

Addressed Issues

ISSUE
DESCRIPTION
PCSUP-10988
Fixed an internal error that failed to refresh the vulnerability statistics under
Compute
Monitor
Vulnerabilities
Vulnerability Explorer
.
PCSUP-10841
Fixed an issue with permissions in the AWS Gov template for agentless scanning.
PCSUP-10791
Fixed an issue with editing WAAS rules. On upgrade to 22.06, you could not update or modify WAAS rules configured to protect the same port for multiple protocols, such as TLS, HTTP2, and gRPC.With this fix, such rules can now be modified.
PCSUP-10632
Fixed an issue that caused Defender to incorrectly report the Host OS as SLES15SP1 instead of SLES15.
PCSUP-10507
Fixed two issues with Defenders running on containerd/CRI-O nodes:
Defenders attempted to scan host file systems during image scans for containers that changed to the host mount namespace. This issue is fixed.
Defenders attempted to scan the host filesystem as some parent directory was a symlink. The issue was fixed by ignoring the images scans running from the host namespace to avoid false binary detections.

Breaking Change Notification

Breaking Change in Lagrange
On upgrade to the next release, code named Lagrange that is planned for the end of this CY, if you have configured an alert profile on
Compute
Manage
Alerts
and enabled
Image vulnerabilities (registry and deployed)
and
Immediately alert for deployed resources
, you will now receive immediate alerts for vulnerable registry images along with immediate alerts for deployed images.
The volume of immediate alerts that are generated maybe much higher than what you’ve seen in the previous releases because support for immediate alerting for registry images is being added in Lagrange. With this change, the
Image vulnerabilities (registry and deployed)
option is being separated into two:
Deployed images vulnerabilities
and
Registry images vulnerabilities
, and both these triggers will be automatically enabled on upgrade, if the original trigger was enabled in the alert profile.
