Hi Everyone,

For those of you not yet on Chef Infra Client 16, we have a great bugfix and security release with some nice improvements to Chef Infra Client 15.

# What's New In 15.14

## Chef InSpec 4.22.22

Chef InSpec has been updated from 4.22.1 to 4.22.22. This new release includes the following improvements:

- Fix mysql\_session stdout, stderr and exit\_status parameters. Thanks [@ramereth](https://github.com/ramereth)!
- Add new windows\_firewall and windows\_firewall\_rule resources. Thanks [@tecracer-theinen](https://github.com/tecracer-theinen)!

## Fixes and Improvements

- The `knife ssh` command no longer hangs when connecting to Windows nodes over SSH.
- Resolved several failures that could occur in the included chef-vault gem.

## Resource Updates

### hostname

The `hostname` resource has been updated to improve logging on Windows systems.

### windows\_feature

The `windows_feature` resource has been updated to allow installing features that have been removed if a source location is provided. Thanks for reporting this [@stefanwb](https://github.com/stefanwb)!

### windows\_font

The `windows_font` resource will no longer fail on newer releases of Windows if a font is already installed. Thanks for reporting this [@bmiller08](https://github.com/bmiller08)!

## Platform Packages

- We are once again building Chef Infra Client packages for RHEL 7 / SLES 12 on the S390x architecture. In addition to these packages, we've also added S390x packages for SLES 15.
- We now produce packages for Apple's upcoming macOS 11 Big Sur release.

## Security

### OpenSSL

OpenSSL has been updated to 1.0.2w which includes a fix for [CVE-2020-1968](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2020-1968).

### CA Root Certificates

The included `cacerts` bundle in Chef Infra Client has been updated to the 7-22-2020 release. This new release removes 4 legacy root certificates and adds 4 additional root certificates.

# Get the Build

As always, you can download binaries directly from [downloads.chef.io](https://downloads.chef.io/products/infra?v=15.14.0) or by using the `mixlib-install` command-line utility:

```auto
$ mixlib-install download chef -v 15.14.0

```

Alternatively, you can install Chef Infra Client using one of the following command options:

```auto
# In Shell
$ curl https://omnitruck.chef.io/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- -P chef -v 15.14.0

# In Windows Powershell
. { iwr -useb https://omnitruck.chef.io/install.ps1 } | iex; install -project chef -version 15.14.0

```

If you want to give this version a spin in Test Kitchen, create or add the following to your `kitchen.yml` file:

```auto
provisioner:
  product_name: chef
  product_version: 15.14.0

```

Enjoy,  
Tim
