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 Snipe-IT?

Snipe-IT re-tags 8.8 within minutes to ship Alpine's patched PHP in its Docker image.

Snipe-IT is a self-hosted IT asset manager whose latest visible release, v8.8.3, is a rebuild for Docker Alpine users after Alpine published patched PHP versions minutes after 8.8.2 went out. It also removes PHP 8.4/8.5 deprecation notices. The project now requires PHP 8.2 and recommends 8.4.

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.

Snipe-IT re-tags 8.8 within minutes to ship Alpine's patched PHP in its Docker image.

◆ Current state

Snipe-IT is a self-hosted IT asset manager whose latest visible release, v8.8.3, is a rebuild for Docker Alpine users after Alpine published patched PHP versions minutes after 8.8.2 went out. It also removes PHP 8.4/8.5 deprecation notices. The project now requires PHP 8.2 and recommends 8.4.

◆ Where it's heading

The release notes say upcoming features will require PHP 8.3 or newer, so the runtime floor is about to rise again. For now the cadence is maintenance and security hygiene on the 8.8 line.

◆ Prediction

With only one entry visible, the next move is unclear beyond a likely minimum PHP bump to 8.3 tied to new features.
