Releases: OpenCTI-Platform/opencti
Version 5.0.0
๐ DING DING!! ๐
Dear community, we are glad to announce the release of OpenCTI 5.0.0 ๐, after 3 months of collective work from the whole OpenCTI community. This new version is based on two fundamental principles:
- Make OpenCTI more reactive and intelligent with the data while we ensure consistency and robustness of our current components ๐ง .
- Build the roots of more collaboration, sharing and engagement on threat intelligence structured data ๐ค.
In this major release, we have entirely reworked most of our essential components, especially the data streams to enable community sharing and synchronization between platforms ๐ก. Furthermore, this milestone re-introduces a global reasoning mechanism on the data, allowing analysts to visualize accurate and exhaustive knowledge without constantly pivoting between entities and relationships ๐.
A lot of new features described in our blog post are available in OpenCTI 5.0.0: subscriptions / digests, content viewer / enriched editor, custom workflows, dashboard widgets, etc ๐. Among all these changes, more than 50 bugfixes are part of this release, whether related to the core platform or the connectors/libraries ecosystem ๐จ๐จ.
We are working on updating our strategic roadmap so it will reflect where we stand, but next steps have been already planned in the different Luatix development committees: garbage collector, case management, connectors and widgets will be our main focus in the coming months ๐.
Please note that the subscription manager is enabled by default. This means you will be required to provide the API with SMTP access. If you don't have a SMTP server, just disable the Subscription manager with:
"subscription_scheduler": { "enabled": false }
- SUBSCRIPTION_SCHEDULER__ENABLED=false
in your configuration.

Also, the enrichment APIs and screens have been moved to the global meta entity Stix-Core-Object

enrichment connectors for vulnerabilities, organizations, incidents, etc. such as Wikipedia, CRMs, ticket management systems... ๐
Last but not least, a few connectors have been enhanced ๐ฆ. The AlienVault
connector has new options to enable/disable
relationships between Attack Patterns
and Indicators
(which may lead to have a lot of relationship for each pulse). It's also possible to fully disable relationships.
The
ImportFilePdfObservables
connector has been replaced by a fully rewritten ImportReport connector which also supports plain text files. A huge thank you to @nor3th for this amazing work ๐!
