  • Added new Podman resources for testing containers, images, pods, volumes, and networks. (#6183)
  • Added the only_applicable_if keyword to the InSpec DSL. This allows you to mark a control as "not applicable" if the only_applicable_if block evaluates to false. (#6229)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed the inspec sign command which would break if a period was included in the profile name. (#6261)
  • Fixed compatibility issues with the oracledb_session resource when run on AIX with C shell. (#6257)
