WildFly 19.1.0 is released!
WildFly 19.1.0 Final is now available for download.
As we usually do between WildFly majors, we’ve done an update release to provide the WildFly community with important bug fixes and component upgrades that have become available. Typically these are micro releases, but this time we had one feature that we wanted to make available, so we changed the version to 19.1.0 and released a minor.
The feature is related to handling of SameSite cookie attributes. Undertow has added support for SameSite="None" cookie attributes and support for a new SameSiteCookieHandler that sets SameSite attributes on cookies that match a cookie name pattern. With this handler, web developers can remain compliant with the latest changes in some browsers.
To use the SameSiteCookieHandler, add a undertow-handlers.conf file to your WAR’s WEB-INF directory that includes a line like the following:
samesite-cookie(mode=<mode>)
Valid values for the mode parameter are Strict, Lax or None, ignoring case. See RFC6265bis for more information on the meaning of these modes.
Further details, including other parameters you can use to configure the SameSiteCookieHandler, are discussed in the WFLY-13003 feature analysis document.
If you want to add the SameSite handler to your application without changing the application code, look into using a deployment overlay to add the `WEB-INF/undertow-handlers.conf' file to existing deployments.
Note for Galleon Users
If you provisioned a WildFly server associated with the 19.0 channel, a simple Galleon update won’t update your installation to 19.1.0, as 19.1.0 is not part of that channel’s version range. There’s a new 19.1 channel that you’ll need to specify.
For example, if you’d originally provisioned your server like this:
$ galleon.sh install wildfly:19.0 --dir=my-wildfly --layers=jaxrs-server Feature-packs resolved. Feature-packs resolved. Packages installed. JBoss modules installed. Configurations generated. Feature pack installed. ======= ============ ============== Product Build Update Channel ======= ============ ============== wildfly 19.0.0.Final 19.0
Then a simple update will do nothing:
$ galleon.sh update --dir=my-wildfly Feature-packs resolved. Up to date. No available updates nor patches.
To get the update change the channel to 19.1:
$ galleon.sh update --feature-packs=wildfly:19.1#19.1.0.Final --dir=my-wildfly Feature-packs resolved. Some updates and/or patches are available. ======= ============= ============ ============== Product Current Build Update Update Channel ======= ============= ============ ============== wildfly 19.0.0.Final 19.1.0.Final 19.1 Proceed with latest updates [y/n]? Feature-packs resolved. Packages installed. JBoss modules installed. Configurations generated. $ galleon.sh get-info --dir=my-wildfly ======= ============ ============== Product Build Update Channel ======= ============ ============== wildfly 19.1.0.Final 19.1
I hope you enjoy WildFly 19.1. If you have any questions or feedback please find us at the WildFly forums.
