# Aviatrix CoPilot Image Release Notes

> Aviatrix CoPilot is delivered via one image that should be maintained with the latest version for managing security and support for the product. You can launch the Aviatrix CoPilot image instance in the AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, or Oracle Cloud marketplaces.

Aviatrix CoPilot is delivered via one image that should be maintained with the
latest version for managing security and support for the product. You can launch
the Aviatrix CoPilot image instance in the AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud,
or Oracle Cloud marketplaces.

After a base image is launched from a marketplace, the CoPilot instance
automatically updates to the latest software version upon startup.

## Appliance Version 3.4.0 for CoPilot Software Version 4.29.1

This image rebuilds the CoPilot v3 appliance for AWS, Azure, and GCP with the
latest security patches and system packages.

The base cloud image is upgraded from `20250429` to `20250725` to address
multiple CVEs and improve overall system stability and security.

IMDSv2 is enabled by default for the AWS CoPilot image to enhance instance
metadata security.

## Appliance Version 3.3.0 for CoPilot Software Version 4.24.1

This new image rebuilds the CoPilot v3 appliance for AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI
with the latest security patches and system packages.

The base cloud image is upgraded from `20240801` to `20250429` to address
multiple CVEs and provide enhanced system stability and security.

The `auditd` service is installed and configured to ensure CoPilot manages its
own audit log rotation.

<Note>
  Automatic software upgrades of existing CoPilot deployments include the latest
  CVE patches and audit logging improvements.
</Note>

## Appliance Version 3.2.0 for CoPilot Software Version 4.12

This new image rebuilds the CoPilot v3 appliance for AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI
with the latest security patches and system packages.

The Elasticsearch version is upgraded to start with 8.12.0, which is unaffected
by the previous CVE-2023-31419 Elasticsearch 8.9.1 / 7.17.13 Security Update.

The OpenSSH version is upgraded to start with 8.9p1-3ubuntu0.10, which is
unaffected by the previous CVE-2024-6387 "RegreSSHion" vulnerability.

<Note>
  Automatic software upgrades of existing CoPilot deployments include
  resolutions for CVE-2023-31419 and CVE-2024-6387.
</Note>

## Migrating to the Latest CoPilot Image

If you have an existing CoPilot and want to upgrade to the latest version of a
CoPilot base image, you must first launch a new CoPilot based on the latest
image, and then migrate data from the old CoPilot to the new CoPilot.

To determine which appliance version you are running, click the Aviatrix icon in
the upper right of the CoPilot menu bar. You will see the software and appliance
versions you are currently running.

**(AWS Cloud)** If your existing CoPilot is an Appliance Version 2 image and you
want to upgrade to an Appliance Version 3 image, you can perform the image
migration using a backup and restore method. This image migration method is
supported for AWS cloud between two simple CoPilot deployments running Appliance
Version 2 and 3 images. For further details, see

<a href={"/docs/enterprise/" + "10.1" + "/guides/controlplane/migrate-to-appliance-v3"}>Migrate CoPilot to Appliance V3 (AWS)</a>
.

For information about migrating CoPilot data from an old image to a new image,
see

<a href={"/docs/enterprise/" + "10.1" + "/guides/controlplane/copilot-migrate"}>Migrating CoPilot Data</a>
.

## Appliance Version 3 Images

Appliance Version 3 images have the following characteristics:

* Applies CIS hardening
* CoPilot v3 images are the only images that will continue to receive security
  updates through software
* Increases appliance version from 2 to 3.0.0 or later
* Disk (Volume) Support
* Auto-Scaling Memory Support

See CoPilot Image Releases - Appliance Version 3 for a list of v3.x appliance

## Disk (Volume) Support

With Appliance Version 2 and Version 3 CoPilot base images, you can allocate
data disks (volumes) to your Aviatrix CoPilot deployment to be used for
expandable storage. During instance creation in the marketplace, you can attach
a data disk (data volume) to be used for CoPilot storage. When you deploy the
instance, the initial setup process will automatically detect the disk/volume
you attached during instance creation and format and attach your disks (a
logical disk/volume is created from all physical disks). As your storage needs
increase later (after deploying), you can also add more disks (volumes) as
needed. See

<a href={"/docs/enterprise/" + "10.1" + "/guides/controlplane/disk-management"}>CoPilot Disk (Volume) Management</a>
for more information.

## Auto-Scaling Memory Support

Appliance Version 2 and Version 3 CoPilot base images support automatic memory
sizing for the ETL and datastore based on the physical memory of the instance at
boot. New base images will default to these automatic settings, but existing
deployments will keep their current configuration unless updated. Memory
settings are located under **CoPilot > Settings > Configuration > Options**.
