🧰 Bug fixes 🧰

• configrpc: Use own compressors for zstd (#10323)
  Before this change, the zstd compressor we used didn't respect the max message size. This addresses CVE-2024-36129 (GHSA-c74f-6mfw-mm4v) on configgrpc.

v1.9.0/v0.102.0

Images and binaries here: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-releases/releases/tag/v0.102.0

This release addresses GHSA-c74f-6mfw-mm4v for confighttp. Use v0.102.1 instead to get the fix on configgrpc as well.

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

• envprovider: Restricts Environment Variable names. Environment variable names must now be ASCII only and start with a letter or an underscore, and can only contain underscores, letters, or numbers. (#9531)
• confighttp: Apply MaxRequestBodySize to the result of a decompressed body (#10289)
  When using compressed payloads, the Collector would verify only the size of the compressed payload.
  This change applies the same restriction to the decompressed content. As a security measure, a limit of 20 MiB was added, which makes this a breaking change. This addresses CVE-2024-36129 (GHSA-c74f-6mfw-mm4v) on confighttp.
  For most clients, this shouldn't be a problem, but if you often have payloads that decompress to more than 20 MiB, you might want to either configure your
  client to send smaller batches (recommended), or increase the limit using the MaxRequestBodySize option.

💡 Enhancements 💡

• mdatagen: auto-generate utilities to test component telemetry (#19783)
• mdatagen: support setting an AttributeSet for async instruments (#9674)
• mdatagen: support using telemetry level in telemetry builder (#10234)
  This allows components to set the minimum level needed for them to produce telemetry. By default, this is set to configtelemetry.LevelBasic. If the telemetry level is below that minimum level, then the noop meter is used for metrics.
• mdatagen: add support for bucket boundaries for histograms (#10218)
• releases: add documentation in how to verify the image signatures using cosign (#9610)

End User Changelog

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

• builder: Add strict version checking when using the builder. Add the temporary flag --skip-strict-versioning for skipping this check. (#9896)
  Strict version checking will error on major and minor version mismatches
  between the otelcol_version configured and the builder version or versions
  in the go.mod. This check can be temporarily disabled by using the --skip-strict-versioning
  flag. This flag will be removed in a future minor version.

• telemetry: Distributed internal metrics across different levels. (#7890)
  The internal metrics levels are updated along with reported metrics:

  • The default level is changed from basic to normal, which can be overridden with service::telmetry::metrics::level configuration.
  • Batch processor metrics are updated to be reported starting from normal level:
    • processor_batch_batch_send_size
    • processor_batch_metadata_cardinality
    • processor_batch_timeout_trigger_send
    • processor_batch_size_trigger_send
  • GRPC/HTTP server and client metrics are updated to be reported starting from detailed level:
    • http.client.* metrics
    • http.server.* metrics
    • rpc.server.* metrics
    • rpc.client.* metrics

💡 Enhancements 💡

• confighttp: Disable concurrency in zstd compression (#8216)

• cmd/builder: Allow configuring confmap.Providers in the builder. (#4759)
  If no providers are specified, the defaults are used.
  The default providers are: env, file, http, https, and yaml.

  To configure providers, use the providers key in your OCB build
  manifest with a list of Go modules for your providers.
  The modules will work the same as other Collector components.

• mdatagen: enable goleak tests by default via mdatagen (#9959)

• cmd/mdatagen: support excluding some metrics based on string and regexes in resource_attributes (#9661)

• cmd/mdatagen: Generate config and factory tests covering their requirements. (#9940)
  The tests are moved from cmd/builder.

• confmap: Add ProviderSettings, ConverterSettings, ProviderFactories, and ConverterFactories fields to confmap.ResolverSettings (#9516)
  This allows configuring providers and converters, which are instantiated by NewResolver using the given factories.
