Release Notes May 2024
Release Date: 2024-05-28
Version: 8.25.7.1.el7
Upcoming update for Netsec users
It has likely not escaped anyone's notice that things have been a little quiet on the Netsec side. But we have been working exceptionally hard behind the scenes to introduce the Netsec capabilities into the Portal, the UI currently used for our Appsec products.
Over the coming months more capabilities will be added and we are beginning the onboarding process for customers to move over to the Portal UI. The transition will be gradual, and customers will be moved individually as more capabilities are implemented to the Portal UI.
We are also making the whole Vulnerability Management process more streamlined with less 'clicks' required. There will be some changes in terminology and workflow, but its far simpler to manage and a greatly improved user experience. New features are introduced along the way, such as Tags, along with the necessary Tag Manager, support for Webhooks, and much more.
For those of you already using Portal, you may have seen some of the great steps forward in terms of user experience, and there are a lot more exciting new updates and capabilities coming.
Important notice
As our business grows, and with more customers joining us, it has been necessary to grow our infrastructure accordingly to ensure we can continue to offer an ever-improving level of service to our customers.
To meet these needs, it has been necessary to extend the IP range from which scanning may originate.
The additional IPv6 range from which scans may originate is:
2a13:5240::/29
This is in addition to our existing network range of:
IPv4: 91.216.32.0/24
Ipv4: 80.254.228.0/22
IPv6: 2001:67c:1084::/48
These IP ranges are exclusive to Outpost24, and any IP whitelisting for PCI ASV scans should include these new ranges.
Deprecation of SWAT Assets and SWAT Findings in Portal
As part of our ongoing efforts to migrate all Appsec functionality to Portal, please note that both SWAT Findings and SWAT Assets will be removed in upcoming releases from Portal. Those sections had been marked as deprecated for a long time now. As disclosed in the EOL Announcements, SWAT Classic will be deprecated as of October 1st, 2024. Customers who are still using Classic should begin the onboarding process.
New Features
Portal
- We have continued working on enhancing the performance of our user interface, ensuring smoother navigation and quicker response times. These optimizations aim to improve the overall experience by providing enhanced usability and efficiency.

Bug Fixes and Minor Improvements
Appsec
- Fixed an issue in the Asset Groups view where Web Applications with no findings would return the total count of findings of the session user instead of 0.
Portal
- Fixed an issue where tags could not be added for subusers.
- Fixed an issue in the Asset details where if all findings had a status of Pending verification or Irreproducible, the graphic would be empty.
Fixed an issue in the Asset details where the Top recommended actions and OWASP information would be empty the first time the page was loaded or after reloading it.
- Fixed an issue in the Asset details where if both severity and OWASP severity were selected, pivoting to findings would only take the OWASP category into account, ignoring the severity.
- Accepted and False Positive findings have been excluced from the Top recommended actions and OWASP graphic.
- Fixed an issue where subusers with Asset and Finding permission could not expand the Asset panel in the Finding view.
- Fixed a colour discrepancy between table and filter dropdown for the Irreproducible status.
- Improved UX around user lists where only the first 10 would be loaded and users would have to filter down the list to be able to find those not shown.
- Fixed an issue where changing the name of docker discoveries would not update the name with the new value.
