Release Notes

v26.6.3: - 🏢🤝 More MSP-ready flexibility in a Hub SYNC setup and new KEALSS and ADGUARDEXP plugins
Hi all 👋
This release centers on refining how NetAlertX handles distributed environments and enhancing the reliability of the core scanning plugins, making the platform increasingly suitable for MSP and multi-site deployments.
A major addition is the new SYNC_BEHAVIOR setting, which gives you explicit control over whether your hub or your nodes act as the source of truth. I've also hardened the SYNC plugin’s error handling to ensure more reliable data propagation across your network.
The plugin ecosystem continues to expand thanks to the community 🙏 there is now a new Kea DHCP server plugin (thanks to @void-spark) and a AdGuard Export plugin (thanks to @natecj), which keeps your device names and identifiers mirrored in AdGuard Home.
The the system's foundation was hardened as well. This includes a UI-wide HTML-encoding overhaul to ensure device names are rendered safely, plus a major update to the ICMP scanner to improve reliability with better VLAN handling. Finally, workflows handle device deletions better to prevent background triggers from failing during data churn.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release. Now onto the changes.

✨Fixes and Improvements
- Workflow triggers could fail if device deleted before event was processed
DIGSCANcould not be disabled due to default RUN set in config.json #1631- New UI regression tests verifying
devNameXSS protection - UI-wide HTML‑encoding for device names and safer table rendering
- Sync hub (
SYNC) more robust error handling #1657 - The hub of the
SYNCsetup in pull mode didn't emitnew devicenotifications #1652 - ICMP scan: per‑interface & IPv4/IPv6 probing, deduplication, tolerant timeouts. #1642
- Device pages: smarter name cache fallback, improved titles/navigation
- Workflows/triggers handle missing objects more gracefully and action groups simplified
- The PUSH mode of the
SYNCplugin didn't work - Updated CRON schedule validation to accept a wider range of CRON schedules
- Tweaked external link icon spacing and refined settings/devices UI layout; updated footer links.
