Chef InSpec 5.22.65 Released!

Hello InSpec friends!
We are delighted to announce the availability of version 5.22.65 of Chef InSpec. Changes include:
Release Date: 13 December,2024

New Features

  • Added the --legacy flag to the inspec automate upload command. (#7200)

    The inspec automate upload command runs inspec check and inspec export, which were overhauled in Chef InSpec 5.22.36. This overhaul led to a bug with InSpec profiles with =begin =end.

    Use the --legacy flag with profiles where the newer export and check methods may fail to parse older profiles correctly, particularly due to limitations in AST parsing.

CVEs

Improvements

  • Improved regular expressions used to load README files from InSpec profiles. (#7198)

Dependency Updates

  • Upgraded Ruby and Ruby Devkit to 3.1.6 due to outdated embedded Perl version in Ruby 3.1.2. (#7174)
