This release updates libraries used by BlueCat software to remediate both security vulnerabilities and false positives from some security scanners. In addition, this release includes the following new feature:
Introduction of Gateway in read-only mode
The BlueCat Gateway v25.3 release introduces the ability to enable Gateway in read-only mode, allowing it to operate in a read-only state. When enabled, Gateway connects to Secondary or Tertiary Address Manager servers and only uses read-only sessions when authenticating with Address Manager, ensuring that no write operations or configuration changes are made.
Enabling Gateway in read-only mode allows you to offload reporting, analytics, and inventory workflows that only make use of read-only BAM APIs to this Gateway instance that authenticates against a Secondary or Tertiary Address Manager. This reduces the load on Primary Address Manager servers and minimizes performance impact in active environments.
