Users are encouraged to upgrade for the best experience.

ℹ️ Please follow the Upgrade Procedure for Flux v2.7+ for a smooth upgrade from Flux v2.6 to the latest version.

  • Fix unbounded memory growth caused by a Kubernetes client transport retry wrapper accumulating on every reconcile (helm-controller)
  • Stop force-applying non-CRD objects placed under a chart's crds/ directory (helm-controller)
  • Fix the Helm test action failing to find releases with names longer than 53 characters (helm-controller)
  • Improve path handling in the source reconcilers (source-controller)
  • Support Helm semver build-metadata encoding in OCIRepository tags (source-controller)

Improvements:

  • Update go-git to v5.19.1 which fixes CVE-2026-45571 and CVE-2026-45570 (source-controller, image-automation-controller)
  • Move Helm back to upstream v4.2.0 (source-controller, helm-controller)
  • Add support for GCP sovereign cloud artifact registries (source-controller, image-reflector-controller)
