March 31, 2023 [GDC 1.9.2]
Google Distributed Cloud air-gapped 1.9.2 is now released.
See the product overview to learn about the features of Google Distributed Cloud air-gapped.
Updated Google Distributed Cloud version to 1.14.3-gke.8 to apply the latest security patches and important updates.
See Google Distributed Cloud 1.14.3 release notes for details.
Between 1070 and 1072 the NVIDIA driver was not signed to match the kernel and therefore the NVIDIA driver couldn't load during a secured boot. Updated Canonical Ubuntu OS image version to 20230309 with matching signed NVIDIA driver to address the problem.
In the Firewall operable component, add a default authentication profile for all non-emergency access administrators. This profile enforces a limit of three (3) consecutive failed login attempts before the account is locked. Only an emergency access admin account can restore access.
This change is a requirement from the Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) V-228639.
In the Firewall operable component, GDC 1.9.2 implements a default deny rule for traffic flows, and only system-required flows are explicitly allowed. You can use the Firewall API to create a firewall policy to allow additional flows.
For information about using the Firewall API to create a firewall policy, see:
