What is FOSSA CLI?
fossa-cli's feed jumps from 3.17 to 3.20, with clearer container scan errors.
The newest entry, v3.20.10 (2026-10-31), makes container analysis report the registry error when an image layer fails to download instead of an internal threading error, and adds per-phase timing to analysis telemetry. The feed has no entries between 3.17.17 in August and 3.20.10, so the 3.18 to 3.20 releases are not visible here.
What is HAProxy Kubernetes Ingress Controller?
Nineteen patches into 3.2, HAProxy's ingress controller is mostly bumping dependencies
The controller remains on the 3.2 patch line. Since v3.2.14 the only release of substance is v3.2.15, which stopped filtering ingresses on IngressClass name at ingestion, reworked status publishing and moved to Go 1.27. Later patches are mainly dependency and tooling updates, with v3.2.18 keeping every TLS secret of an ingress on the same host and v3.2.19 fixing a data race on the reload flag.

FOSSA CLI
2.5INFRA · APIS
fossa-cli's feed jumps from 3.17 to 3.20, with clearer container scan errors.
◆ Current state
The newest entry, v3.20.10 (2026-10-31), makes container analysis report the registry error when an image layer fails to download instead of an internal threading error, and adds per-phase timing to analysis telemetry. The feed has no entries between 3.17.17 in August and 3.20.10, so the 3.18 to 3.20 releases are not visible here.
◆ Where it's heading
The visible releases are ecosystem-by-ecosystem accuracy fixes (npm, pnpm, sbt, Conan, dpkg) and operational adjustments such as a longer default timeout. With three minor versions missing from the feed, any larger changes in that span can't be assessed from these entries.
◆ Prediction
Expect more per-ecosystem resolution fixes and patch releases; the gap in the feed makes a more specific prediction unreliable.
HAProxy Kubernetes Ingress Controller
5.0INFRA · APIS
Nineteen patches into 3.2, HAProxy's ingress controller is mostly bumping dependencies
◆ Current state
The controller remains on the 3.2 patch line. Since v3.2.14 the only release of substance is v3.2.15, which stopped filtering ingresses on IngressClass name at ingestion, reworked status publishing and moved to Go 1.27. Later patches are mainly dependency and tooling updates, with v3.2.18 keeping every TLS secret of an ingress on the same host and v3.2.19 fixing a data race on the reload flag.
◆ Where it's heading
The ssl-passthrough theme has faded, and the series is now closer to routine upkeep than stabilization. Fixes have moved to ingress class handling, TLS secret storage and concurrency, with test coverage arriving in the same changes. Patches keep coming, but no new configuration surface has appeared on this line in the entries shown, apart from amending the SSL frontend through a custom resource in v3.2.15.
◆ Prediction
Expect further patches dominated by go.mod and Kubernetes client updates, with new capability waiting for a later line.
