Abstract

See the list of the known limitations in Cortex XDR agent 8.9.

The following table describes the known limitations in the Cortex XDR agent 8.9.

Issue

Limitation

CPATR-18568

[Linux] On some occasions, when a container is a short-lived container (exits within a short period of time) retrieval of the container information is not guaranteed.

Custer-level scoping

Cluster name is currently not supported in Oracle Cloud, GCP, Azure and Openshift (any cloud). For these operating systems, use the node name instead.

Device control

When enabling Device Control protection for the first time, some devices that are already connected (or paired in case of Bluetooth) to the machine will not be immediately affected by the change.

The profile change will affect the connected device after one of the following occurs:

  • Disconnect and reconnect the device

  • A computer restart

  • In case of Bluetooth: Toggle the Bluetooth off and on, or manually unpair the device.

File Integrity Monitoring

[Linux] When using FIM, resolving image names is currently not supported on GKE.

Linux Kubernetes Platform, TalOS

When using TalOS, note the following:

  • Collect insights and compliance collection are disabled.

  • Live Terminal startup location is inside the agent pod and not on the host.

All the server and user script execution initial working directories are inside the agent pod.

Live Terminal support

Live Terminal is currently not supported for pure IPv6 endpoints, on all platforms.

Live Terminal will not be supported with GKE Autopilot.

SELinux

When installing Cortex XDR agent on a system with SELinux enabled, a custom install directory cannot be used.

SLES 15

Installing Cortex XDR agent on SLES (SUSE Linux Enterprise) 15 with SELinux enabled is unsupported.

VA scanning engine

When using the Vulnerability Assessment engine, note the following issues:

  • In some cases, the reported application version may be missing or incomplete.

  • Applications installed for specific users will not be scanned.

  • During a scan, memory spikes may occur.
