Varnish Controller 7.5.1 Release

Published April 29, 2026.
  • Added aarch64 (ARM) packages for Varnish Controller components.
  • Added Ubuntu 26.04 (Resolute Raccoon) packages for Varnish Controller components.
  • Fixed URL matching in the root VCL when the request includes a port, now includes a new variable baseURLNoPort.
  • Fixed router deployment bug that could clear domains when multiple VCLGroups with different domains used the same routing rules.
  • Fixed agent backups to include the common VCL directory so backups can be restored correctly.
  • Fixed a bug where unrelated commits in a shared git repository would trigger a redeploy of a VCLGroup.
  • Fixed vcli to fail properly when VCL compilation fails during deploy.
  • Fixed session login and impersonation issues when creating session tokens.
  • Removed the GET-method requirement on the JSON health check response (traffic_router_health.vcl), and reload the root VCL when the generated health check VCL changes.
  • Prevented creation of a new rolling upgrade for a VCLGroup that already has an active one.
  • Prevented adding an already-deployed domain to multiple VCLGroups on the same agent, and prevented removing all domains from a deployed VCLGroup.
  • Reduced memory usage of the system debug and monitoring endpoints.
  • Reduced database load with covering indexes and several optimizations.
  • Improved ACME DNS propagation checks with clearer error messages and more reliable lookups.
  • Security hardening across the API gateway and traffic router, covering request and server timeouts, internal cache bounds, and proxy header / TLS SNI / HTTP Host validation.
  • Version mismatches between components are now logged at WARN level for better operational visibility.
  • Updated dependencies (Lego, PGX) to address upstream security advisories.
  • UI: Added a Server Deployments view per VCLGroup with live status polling and per-server deployment status. The VCLGroup header and list now show a warning when only some matching servers have deployed the latest configuration.
  • UI: Read-only agents are now marked Unavailable in the VCLGroup matching-servers picker in the UI.
  • UI: The Deploy & Compile file list now shows an indicator when a deployed file version is older than the latest available version.
