A summary of the Cockpit weekly release. There’s a new release every
week. Here are the highlights from this weeks 0.105 release.


Strict Content-Security-Policy enforced everywhere
--------------------------------------------------

All of the Cockpit components now ship strict Content-Security-Policy.
This is like SELinux in your browser, where you declare the kind of
things the application is permitted to do and anything else is blocked.

Cockpit now only allows talking to and loading code from the server(s)
that it's running on. Everything else is blocked, including inline
scripts, evaluating javascript code, and using inline styles.

Change:
https://trello.com/c/JDZB3T4M/251-0-105-implement-content-security-policy



Timeout for Cockpit Authentication
----------------------------------

Cockpit uses PAM for authenticating local users. It now expects that
authentication process to complete within a certain timeout.

Details:

Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4339



Cluster Users can be Added and Removed from Groups
--------------------------------------------------

In the Cluster admin interface, users can be added to groups and remove
them with a few clicks.

Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4066



Registry Mirroring from Insecure Registries
-------------------------------------------

In the Registry user interface http://www.projectatomic.io/registry/
there's now a checkbox that allows you to choose whether the registry
from which you're mirroring container images is insecure or not.
Aaron has been working on further changes to the mirroring views, such
as reporting errors, and syncing on demand.

Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4307



Deletion of Kubernetes Nodes
----------------------------

In the Cluster admin interface you can now delete Nodes from the
cluster, and select which ones to delete. Andreas has also done design
work to allow upgrading the node operating system as well as cordoning
nodes, which makes them unavailable for scheduling containers.
