The event, which is organised by a team of volunteers from the Apache CloudStack Community, was held in the Capital Fort Business centre in Sofia, Bulgaria.<p>For the first time, the CloudStack Collaboration Conference was held as a hybrid event. It was streamed live on Hubilo for those who were not able to attend in-person. As it was the first time the community had collaborated in-person since the pandemic, we managed to collect a record number of physical attendees!</p><p>The conference hosted over 370 participants and 48 speakers from 32 countries. In total, there were 38 sessions from leading CloudStack experts, users and skilful engineers from the open-source world. These sessions included: technical talks, user stories, new features and integrations presentations and more.</p></div><footer class="row docusaurus-mt-lg"><div class="col col--9"><b>Tags:</b><ul class="tags_jXut padding--none margin-left--sm"><li class="tag_QGVx"><a class="tag_zVej tagRegular_sFm0" href="/blog/tags/news">news</a></li></ul></div><div class="col text--right col--3"><a aria-label="Read more about CloudStack Collaboration Conference 2022 Roundup" href="/blog/cloudstack-collaboration-conference-2022-roundup"><b>Read More</b></a></div></footer></article><article class="margin-bottom--xl" itemprop="blogPost" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/BlogPosting"><meta itemprop="description" content="CloudStack is a multi-hypervisor, multi-tenant, high-availability cloud management platform that delivers the flexibility and freedom of open-source technology and the power of an enterprise-grade virtualization management platform."><header><h2 class="title_f1Hy" itemprop="headline"><a itemprop="url" href="/blog/cloudstack-integrations-storpool-storage">CloudStack Integrations: StorPool Storage - High-performance primary storage platform</a></h2><div class="container_mt6G margin-vert--md"><time datetime="2022-11-06T00:00:00.000Z" itemprop="datePublished">November 6, 2022</time></div></header><div class="markdown" itemprop="articleBody"><a href="/blog/cloudstack-integrations-storpool-storage"><img loading="lazy" src="/img/imported/975413e8-f2e7-4d03-b344-94f24ec87e6a" alt="CS-LINBIT.jpg" width="750" height="393" class="img_ev3q"></a><p>CloudStack is a multi-hypervisor, multi-tenant, high-availability cloud management platform that delivers the flexibility and freedom of open-source technology and the power of an enterprise-grade virtualization management platform.</p><p>In the new blog series named CloudStack Integrations, we will present a range of technologies with which CloudStack is integrated and can become part of your technology stack.

This plugin is not enabled by default and the attacker would require that this plugin be enabled to exploit the vulnerability. When the SAML 2.0 plugin is enabled in affected versions of Apache CloudStack could potentially allow the exploitation of XXE vulnerabilities. The SAML 2.0 messages constructed during the authentication flow in Apache CloudStack are XML-based and the XML data is parsed by various standard libraries that are now understood to be vulnerable to XXE injection attacks such as arbitrary file reading, possible denial of service, server-side request forgery (SSRF) on the CloudStack management server.</p></div><footer class="row docusaurus-mt-lg"><div class="col col--9"><b>Tags:</b><ul class="tags_jXut padding--none margin-left--sm"><li class="tag_QGVx"><a class="tag_zVej tagRegular_sFm0" href="/blog/tags/announcement">announcement</a></li></ul></div><div class="col text--right col--3"><a aria-label="Read more about [ADVISORY] Apache CloudStack SAML Single Sign-On XXE (CVE-2022-35741)" href="/blog/cve-2022-35741"><b>Read More</b></a></div></footer></article><article class="margin-bottom--xl" itemprop="blogPost" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/BlogPosting"><meta itemprop="description" content="Introduce yourself with a few words"><header><h2 class="title_f1Hy" itemprop="headline"><a itemprop="url" href="/blog/meet-the-community-k-b">Meet the Community - K B Shiv Kumar </a></h2><div class="container_mt6G margin-vert--md"><time datetime="2022-06-20T00:00:00.000Z" itemprop="datePublished">June 20, 2022</time></div></header><div class="markdown" itemprop="articleBody"><a href="/blog/meet-the-community-k-b"><img loading="lazy" src="/img/imported/c0ca3334-ec0f-4dc4-80a3-b97372f44973" alt="Screenshot 2022-06-21 at 10.35.49.png" width="750" height="393" class="img_ev3q"></a><p><strong>Introduce yourself with a few words</strong></p><p>I am K B Shiv Kumar and am the Co-Founder and CTO at IndiQus.

This issue affects the creation and the usage of existing Shared Mount Point storage pools on Apache CloudStack 4.17.0.0.<br></p><p>Apache CloudStack 4.17.0.0 added support for the StorPool storage based on Shared Mount Point. However, the current version of CloudStack doesn<!-- -->&#x27;<!-- -->t allow multiple implementations of Shared Mount Point storage pool providers, causing the StorPool provider to override the default implementation. This affected the other storage pool providers for Shared Mount Point since CloudStack tries to add them as a StorPool storage pool.<br></p><p>To mitigate the issue, a CloudStack administrator needs to do the following on version 4.17.0.0:<br></p><ul><li>On each management server: stop the CloudStack management service, remove the Storpool plugin jar on /usr/share/cloudstack-management/lib/cloud-plugin-storage-volume-storpool-4.17.0.0.jar and restart the CloudStack management service<br></li><li>On each KVM host: stop the CloudStack agent service, remove the StorPool plugin jar on /usr/share/cloudstack-agent/lib/cloud-plugin-storage-volume-storpool-4.17.0.0.jar and restart the CloudStack agent service<br></li></ul><p>Note: This workaround removes the StorPool plugin support. StorPool users should not apply the workaround to continue using their Storpool storage.<br></p><p>This issue will be fixed in the upcoming CloudStack version 4.17.1.0.<br></p><p>[1]<!-- --> <a href="https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/6455" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" title="https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/6455"><a href="https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/6455" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/6455</a></a></p><p></p></div><footer class="row docusaurus-mt-lg"><div class="col"><b>Tags:</b><ul class="tags_jXut padding--none margin-left--sm"><li class="tag_QGVx"><a class="tag_zVej tagRegular_sFm0" href="/blog/tags/announcement">announcement</a></li></ul></div></footer></article><article class="margin-bottom--xl" itemprop="blogPost" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/BlogPosting"><meta itemprop="description" content="The Apache Software Foundation Announces Apache&amp;reg; CloudStack&amp;reg; v4.17"><header><h2 class="title_f1Hy" itemprop="headline"><a itemprop="url" href="/blog/apache-cloudstack-4-17-release">Apache CloudStack 4.17.0.0 LTS Release</a></h2><div class="container_mt6G margin-vert--md"><time datetime="2022-06-07T00:00:00.000Z" itemprop="datePublished">June 7, 2022</time></div><div class="margin-top--md margin-bottom--sm row"><div class="col col--6 authorCol_Hf19"><div class="avatar margin-bottom--sm"><a href="https://github.com/IvetPM" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="avatar__photo-link"><img class="avatar__photo" src="https://github.com/IvetPM.png" alt="Ivet Petrova" itemprop="image"></a><div class="avatar__intro" itemprop="author" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><div class="avatar__name"><a href="https://github.com/IvetPM" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" itemprop="url"><span itemprop="name">Ivet Petrova</span></a></div><small class="avatar__subtitle" itemprop="description">PMC Member</small></div></div></div></div></header><div class="markdown" itemprop="articleBody"><p><em>The Apache Software Foundation Announces Apache<strong>®</strong> CloudStack<strong>®</strong> v4.17</em><br></p><p>Apache CloudStack 4.17.0.0 is a 4.17 LTS release with 383 new features, improvements and bug fixes since 4.16, including 16 major new features.
