What is Infisical?

Infisical's code signing can now use DigiCert certificates and their HSM keys.

Infisical shipped three releases in three days. v0.167.0 lets code-signing signers use an existing DigiCert certificate and its HSM key, and requires a trust binding for AWS and GCP machine identities. v0.167.1 adds Linux server certificate discovery and RSA-OAEP in SCEP. v0.167.2 lets Agent Vault proxies start from a proxy token and gives session logs default storage.

What is LibreNMS?

LibreNMS is in maintenance mode, with point releases that fix or revert rather than add.

LibreNMS is an open-source network monitoring system on a monthly release train. Its last four releases are all bug-fix point releases: a billing-polling fix, a custom-map rollback, a revert for older fping versions, and one release with no notes.

Infisical vs LibreNMS: editorial side-by-side

5.0

Infisical's code signing can now use DigiCert certificates and their HSM keys.

◆ Current state

Infisical shipped three releases in three days. v0.167.0 lets code-signing signers use an existing DigiCert certificate and its HSM key, and requires a trust binding for AWS and GCP machine identities. v0.167.1 adds Linux server certificate discovery and RSA-OAEP in SCEP. v0.167.2 lets Agent Vault proxies start from a proxy token and gives session logs default storage.

◆ Where it's heading

PKI and certificate management is getting most of the new features: KMS-backed CAs last week, then DigiCert HSM signers, certificate discovery on Linux servers and signer-specific code-signing settings now. Meanwhile a large frontend migration to v3 components is running across the cert-manager, secrets and PAM screens.

◆ Prediction

Expect certificate discovery to extend to more targets (Windows, cloud load balancers) and the v3 UI migration to finish in the next few releases.

LibreNMS

5.0

LibreNMS is in maintenance mode, with point releases that fix or revert rather than add.

◆ Current state

LibreNMS is an open-source network monitoring system on a monthly release train. Its last four releases are all bug-fix point releases: a billing-polling fix, a custom-map rollback, a revert for older fping versions, and one release with no notes.

◆ Where it's heading

Recent work is about stability, not scope. The project pulled the half-finished custom-map icon backgrounds and reverted a change that broke older installs, which suggests a cautious posture toward regressions in the field. These entries show no new capability.

◆ Prediction

The next monthly release will likely bring another round of polling and map fixes. The entries don't show where feature work is heading.
