The following draft provides early access to release notes for the upcoming Cribl Suite product release. Features or functionality presented are not considered binding commitments and are subject to change at the discretion of Cribl at any time for any reason without notice. This information should not be relied upon in making purchasing decisions.

Cribl Stream 4.14.1 includes significant performance improvements, new capabilities, and important bug fixes.

New Features​

This release provides the following improvements:

New Cribl.Cloud Home Page

We’ve updated the Cribl.Cloud UI, so you can augment your workflows from any given Workspace. From the new landing page, you can:

  • Gain a bird’s eye view of the health and performance of your Workspace.
  • Get at-a-glance health status for your Worker Groups and Fleets.
  • Jump in with quick actions, such as creating a new Source from a Stream Worker Group or Edge Fleet.
  • Track changes on usage and performance from volumes stored in Lake or queries processed in Search.

SSO Authentication for Multiple Organizations in Cribl.Cloud

Administrators can now manage SSO authentication for multiple Organizations that share the same email domain.

IAM Admin Permission in Cribl.Cloud

The IAM Admin is a new Organization-level Permission that can manage the Organization’s SSO configuration and invite, update, and remove Members without having access to data engineering functions. This reduces the risk of unauthorized data access or modification.

Google Cloud Chronicle API Destination

The new Google Cloud Chronicle API Destination lets you send data to Google Cloud Security Operations using the Chronicle v1alpha ImportLogs ingestion method. Use this Destination to add labels to individual events, not only at batch level, and to take advantage of the improved performance and scaling offered by Chronicle API.

Experience Improvements

  • Cribl Guard is now available in on-prem and hybrid deployments of Cribl Stream.

  • FinOps Center improvements:

    • New credit spend projection charts per-product, based on current credit spend.
    • View your usage per product, and answer questions such as the top 5 Workspaces that are driving the most usage.
    • Product-specific tabs provide more visibility into your consumption and usage, enabling you to view usage by metrics specific to your products (like Worker Groups for Stream and Workspace for Search and Lake).

Sources and Destinations

  • Support for encrypted private keys has been extended to the gRPC protocol. A Passphrase setting is now available in the TLS settings for both the Model Driven Telemetry Source and the OpenTelemetry Source when configured for gRPC.

  • To improve clarity for Destinations that use Amazon S3, we’ve added a Key Prefix column to their respective configuration tables. You can now see the S3 object prefix being used, simplifying auditing and troubleshooting.

  • The Syslog Source won’t display the Enable TCP load balancing setting until a TCP port is provided.

  • The Google Cloud Logging Destination has a new configuration option, Validate and correct log name. When enabled, log names are sanitized by replacing any illegal characters with underscores. This prevents ingestion failures and excessive event dropping caused by invalid log names.

  • We enhanced the REST Collector’s login process to support APIs (such as Nozomi) that return authentication tokens (such as JSON Web Tokens) in the Authorization header, rather than the standard JSON body. A new setting Get auth token from header, is available when using the Login or Login (credentials secret) authentication methods. When enabled, the Collector extracts the token from the Authorization header for use in subsequent requests. This feature expands Collector compatibility to include services that use this non-standard authentication pattern.

Corrections

This release contains the following bug fixes:

Operational Fixes

IDDescription
CRIBL-20667 and CRIBL-33599
Fixed a bug that incorrectly displayed and extracted UTC timestamps as one hour behind the correct time in the Data Preview window.
CRIBL-35583Resolved a display bug in the Manage as JSON tab where line numbers 10,000 and above weren’t displaying correctly. Line numbers now display accurately for large configuration files.
CRIBL-35486Fixed an issue that incorrectly prevented some Cribl.Cloud customers from editing log levels when the TTL logging feature was disabled. The system now correctly checks the feature flag, allowing users to save log level changes without error.
CRIBL-35440Resolved an issue that prevented Pack variables from working as expected for Collectors and HMAC Functions. Pack Variables now work for a variety of Collectors, including Amazon S3, Splunk Search, and more.
CRIBL-32315Fixed a bug where enabling Reuse Redis connections in Pipelines broke client-side caching for Redis read operations. When connection reuse was enabled with a low connection limit, each Pipeline read bypassed the local cache and issued a GET to Redis.
CRIBL-34648Resolved a rare uncaughtException error that could occur in the API process during graceful shutdown. This fix ensures that logging continues without crashing the process, even if the underlying log stream (like stdout/stderr) closes prematurely.
CRIBL-33806Fixed an issue where using an Aggregation Function in a Pack Pipeline could cause the cribl_route field to incorrectly include the names of unrelated Routes and Subscriptions. The cribl_route field now accurately reflects only the Routes that processed the event.
CRIBL-35132Resolved a regression in PathFilter time parsing that broke time formats without spaces between units (such as %H%M).

Source and Destination Fixes

IDDescription
CRIBL-35054
Fixed the Datadog Destination when sending in plain/text, where events were incorrectly wrapped in square brackets; events are now output as raw text separated by newlines.
CRIBL-29663Fixed an issue in the Cribl Internal Metrics Source where blocked Destinations could cause memory problems. Now, if too many metrics build up, extra metrics are dropped and a warning is logged.
CRIBL-30490The Validate server certs setting was not applied to authentication for Azure Data Explorer and Event Hubs Destinations, causing certificate validation to be skipped even when enabled. This led to potential network errors and failed connections.
CRIBL-34824Fixed the Wiz API Source job timeout handling, where job-level and Worker Group-level timeouts were not respected. Jobs now correctly honor the configured timeout values, preventing them from running longer than intended.
CRIBL-27976The pagination logic for the REST Collector has been improved to correctly stop making API calls when a page returns no data, which resolves issues where Collectors unnecessarily consumed API rate limits after data was exhausted. The Collector now uses Event Breaker results to determine the end of the data stream. For existing Collectors, you must enable the new Stop on empty results toggle in Advanced Settings to activate this efficiency improvement.
CRIBL-29786Fixed an issue where a Cribl Lake Destination incorrectly remained green (healthy) when the Worker Node had insufficient disk space (<5GB) to route data.
