Release 1.29.5 of the Interoperability Test Bed software is now available. This is a limited maintenance release to address minor bugs related to test sessions and test suite metadata updates, while resolving also a long standing issue that could cause conformance statements to not always be created. In addition, this patch upgrades third-party libraries to correct CVE-2026-49875 which could be exploitable for Test Bed instances using remote test service extensions, and to squash other non-exploitable vulnerabilities.
This new release is online in the Interoperability Test Bed service hosted by DIGIT but is also available for you to set up as a standalone instance. If a standalone instance best matches your needs, the following supporting resources are available:
- The installation guide (for development and production use).
- The user guide.
- The Test Bed's Docker images.
- The Test Bed's source code.
If you are updating from a previous release, please follow the Test Bed's update guide.
