This release brings more observability, stability and diversity on Spider agents:

  • Remote logs access
  • Backoff on failed attachments
  • Local agents

It also restores UDP capture that was failing lately.

DNS over UDP capture

One min read

We had the need recently to capture DNS calls to try to get an idea why sometimes DNS resolving fails on Kube.
Except that Spider had a regression on UDP capture, and it was not any more possible to save UDP packets on the back office.

I fixed this and added a few quick features for DNS parsing.

  • Allows getting logs from Controller, Attachments, Sidecars & Gociphers
  • Provides Sidecar Whisperers to Gociphers to allow TLS deciphering on their captured data
  • When an Ephemeral Whisperer fails twice in 5 minutes, the Controller stops restarting it to avoid overloading the POD manifest

Node.js Whisperers are deprecated

One min read

Since the introduction of new Whisperers agents in Go, these Gossipers have proven reliable, extremely stable and no known bugs is left pending.
They even offer a simpler setup with standalone executables.

Nodes.js Whisperers are thereby officially deprecated, and TLS deciphering has only been implemented in Gossipers.
