This set of browsers covers 98% of users of buildbot.net.
v2.3.1
Bug fixes
- Fix vulnerability in OAuth where user-submitted authorization token was used for authentication
(https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/wiki/OAuth-vulnerability-in-using-submitted-authorization-token-for-authentication). Thanks to Phillip Kuhrt for reporting it.

Bug fixes
- Fix vulnerability in OAuth where user-submitted authorization token was used for authentication
(https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/wiki/OAuth-vulnerability-in-using-submitted-authorization-token-for-authentication). Thanks to Phillip Kuhrt for reporting it.
v2.3.0
Highlights
- Support for older browsers has been hopefully temporarily broken due to frontend changes in progress. Notably, Internet Explorer 11 is not supported in this release. Currently supported browsers are Chrome 56, Firefox 52, Edge 13 and Safari 10, newer versions of these browsers and their compatible derivatives. This set of browsers covers 98% of users of buildbot.net.
Bug fixes
- Fixed :bb:step:
Git
to clean the repository after the checkout when submodules are enabled. Previously this action could lead to untracked module directories after changing branches. - Latent workers with negative
build_wait_timeout
will be shutdown on master shutdown. - Latent worker will now wait until
start_instance()
before startingstop_instance()
or vice-versa. Master will wait for these functions to finish during shutdown. - Latent worker will now correctly handle synchronous exception from the backend worker driver.
- Fixed a potential error during database migration when upgrading to versions >=2.0 (:issue:
4711
).
Deprecations and Removals
- The implementation language of the Buildbot web frontend has been changed from CoffeeScript to JavaScript. The documentation has not been updated yet, as we plan to transition to TypeScript. In the transitory period support for some browsers, notably IE 11 has been dropped. We hope to bring support for older browsers back once the transitory period is over.
- The support for building Buildbot using npm as package manager has been removed. Please use yarn as a replacement that is used by Buildbot developers.
