Notice May 8, 2026

Some dataplanes incorrectly showing 'out of sync' in Konnect UI

Detected by Pingoru
May 08, 2026, 08:00 PM UTC
Resolved
May 08, 2026, 08:00 PM UTC
Duration
Timeline · 1 update
  1. resolved May 08, 2026, 08:00 PM UTC

    Kong proactively deployed an updated license to control planes ahead of an upcoming expiration to avoid any customer disruption. As a side effect of this update, data plane nodes were incorrectly displayed as out-of-sync in the Konnect UI. The data planes themselves continued operating normally with a valid configuration throughout. The team performed a progressive rollout that triggered a full configuration sync, which cleared the inaccurate status. All nodes returned to an in-sync state shortly after. No traffic was impacted at any point. Data planes continued routing requests normally and would receive configuration updates. The only customer-visible symptom was the inaccurate out-of-sync indicator in the UI. The full configuration sync step has been added to the standard runbook for license updates, so future license rotations will not produce this false positive. Engineering is also improving the out-of-sync detection logic to reduce false positives going forward.

    Customers running 3.13 and below who use the OIDC plugin with `tls_client_auth_ssl_verify` unset would have seen this value change to `false` if they updated the config after the rollback of new defaults following the 3.14 release. The rollback incorrectly flipped the oidc plugin tls_client_auth_ssl_verify to false as a default, which was not one of the items recently switched to default true and has instead been defaulted true for some time. We have rolled out a fix to prod to change this default back to true. Updates to the OIDC plugin should once again keep this value set to true if not specifically defined.
