Release v1.25.16+rke2r2
This v1.25.16+rke2r2 release is a special security release addressing a runc CVE.
Important Notes
Addresses the runc CVE: CVE-2024-21626 by updating runc to v1.1.12.
If your server (control-plane) nodes were not started with the --token
CLI flag or config file key, a randomized token was generated during initial cluster startup. This key is used both for joining new nodes to the cluster, and for encrypting cluster bootstrap data within the datastore. Ensure that you retain a copy of this token, as is required when restoring from backup.
You may retrieve the token value from any server already joined to the cluster:
cat /var/lib/rancher/rke2/server/token

-
The embedded containerd version has been bumped to v1.6.14-k3s1. This includes a backported fix for containerd/7843 which caused pods to lose their CNI info when containerd was restarted, which in turn caused the kubelet to recreate the pod.
-
Windows agents now use the k3s fork of containerd, which includes support for registry rewrites.
-
Release v1.25.5+rke2r1
This v1.25.5+rke2r1 release is affected by https://github.com/containerd/containerd/issues/7843, which causes the kubelet to restart all pods whenever RKE2 is restarted. For this reason, we have removed this RKE2 release from the channel server. Please use |

Release v1.25.2+rke2r1
This v1.25.2+rke2r1 release update Kubernetes to v1.25.2+rke2r1, fixes a number of minor issues, and includes security updates.
Important Notes
If your server (control-plane) nodes were not started with the --token
CLI flag or config file key, a randomized token was generated during initial cluster startup. This key is used both for joining new nodes to the cluster, and for encrypting cluster bootstrap data within the datastore. Ensure that you retain a copy of this token, as is required when restoring from backup.
You may retrieve the token value from any server already joined to the cluster:
cat /var/lib/rancher/rke2/server/token
Release v1.25.0+rke2r1
This v1.25.0+rke2r1 release is RKE2’s first in the v1.25 line. This release updates Kubernetes to v1.25.0.
Before upgrading from earlier releases, be sure to read the Kubernetes Urgent Upgrade Notes.

Kubernetes v1.25 removes the beta
PodSecurityPolicy
admission plugin. Please follow the upstream documentation to migrate from PSP if using the built-in PodSecurity Admission Plugin, prior to upgrading to v1.25.0+rke2r1. -
RKE2 now supports version 1.23 of the CIS Benchmark for Kubernetes. The legacy CIS 1.5 and 1.6 profiles (
profile: cis-1.5
andprofile: cis-1.6
) have been removed as they do not apply to Kubernetes 1.25. Servers using one of the legacy profiles must be updated to specify thecis-1.23
profile when upgrading to RKE2 1.25, or RKE2 will fail to start.
