Update Summary

7.79.1 Agent Prelude was released on 2026-05-28. It includes security updates for Prometheus and fixes for Windows, macOS, and workload autoscaling behavior.

Update Details

Security

  • Bump github.com/prometheus/prometheus to v0.311.4 to address CVE-2026-42151 and CVE-2026-42154.

Bug Fixes

  • Windows disk check now uses GetDriveType() to exclude CD-ROM drives and prevent false system.disk.in_use alerts.
  • Workload autoscaling controller now picks up annotation-only edits on locally-owned DatadogPodAutoscalers without waiting for a .spec change or cluster-agent restart.
  • macOS agent GUI app now ignores SIGPIPE to avoid unexpected termination.
  • macOS upgrades now preserve user customizations in system-probe.yaml.
  • Windows NPM TCP failure rate no longer exceeds 100% or increases indefinitely.

Hints

  • Core Checks changes are listed in the 7.79.1 tag on integrations-core.
  • Datadog Cluster Agent Prelude is pinned to datadog-agent v7.79.1.
