OpenResty now builds against JITable PCRE on Ubuntu/RHEL, delivering faster regex matching and TLS connections now use a configurable modern cipher suite based on Mozilla recommendations.
Added new plugin capabilities: a rewrite‑phase handler, a request‑termination plugin, and options to hide Kong server/latency headers and control trailing slashes on upstream requests.
Serf downgraded to v0.7 and TLS 1.0 support removed, which may break existing setups but improves security
Added load‑balancing with round‑robin, Cassandra 3.x support, WebSocket upgrades, internal DNS (A/SRV) resolution, and flexible routing (host, path, method) plus new /upstreams and /targets APIs.
Fixed Cassandra socket reuse in Nginx pool, boosting performance of rate‑limiting plugins.
Fixed admin IP setting in Serf script.
Remove LuaSocket workaround to improve Cassandra performance.
Fixed Resolve support for PostgreSQL SSL connections.
Dropped support for OpenResty 1.9.15.1; now requires OpenResty 1.11.2.1 or newer.
Fixed random string generator and added CLI RNG seeding to resolve clustering issues
Add support for Serf 0.8
Fixed error handling bugs causing incorrect migration error reports, silent start failures, and RNG seeding messages
Added CRUD endpoints for ACL and authentication plugins (basic, HMAC, JWT, key, OAuth2) via the Admin API.
Introduced a brand‑new CLI powered by the resty interpreter, new configuration file format, environment‑variable overrides, and simplified command usage.
Fixed multiple bugs: node registration on same machine, Postgres parsing errors, response transformer slash encoding, JWT default algorithm, and OAuth2 application creation/redirect URI check.
Added support for a simple slash in request paths and multi‑redirect URI handling in OAuth2.0.
Added X-Forwarded-Host and X-Forwarded-Prefix headers to upstream requests
Added PostgreSQL 9.4+ as an optional primary datastore alongside Cassandra.
Breaking change: OpenResty upgraded to 1.9.7.3 with NGINX security fixes (CVE‑2016‑0742/0746/0747), requiring updates to the nginx config.
Add a configurable Cassandra timeout property (connection and read)
Breaking: new configuration file format, Serf added as a dependency for cluster awareness, and LuaJIT replaces Lua 5.1 for the CLI.
Fixed the Mashape Analytics (Galileo) plugin to improve stability under heavy load.
Fixed URL encoding issue when proxying, timing comparison bug in HMAC plugin, and missing "env" statement in Nginx config.
Fixed Kong's detection of nginx in the $PATH variable.
Added WWW‑Authenticate header for 401 responses and X‑Credential‑Username to Basic and HMAC auth plugins.
Breaking changes: configuration file renamed fields (hosts → contact points), plugin config schema renamed, API name validation tightened, database schema updated, and migration script required for cluster updates.
Updated configuration file format (removed cassandra.port, now use host:port notation) requiring migration – breaking change documented in UPDATE.md.
Fixed multiple bugs: Mashape Analytics plugin, dnsmasq startup on Debian, and hyphen handling in path routing with strip path enabled.
Added support for wildcard subdomains, multiple rate‑limit limits, HTTPS logging, auto‑generated keys, CORS enabled by default, and new OAuth2, Mashape Analytics, and IP whitelist/blacklist plugins.
Fixed bug where an uppercase Cassandra keyspace prevented Kong from working with kongdb.org
