5.0.0

Security

• Fixed CVE-2024-1753 in Buildah and podman build which allowed a user to write files to the / directory of the host machine if selinux was not enabled.

Features

• VMs created by podman machine can now use the native Apple hypervisor (applehv) when run on MacOS.
• A new command has been added, podman machine reset, which will remove all existing podman machine VMs and relevant configurations.
• The podman manifest add command now supports a new --artifact option to add OCI artifacts to a manifest list.
• The podman create, podman run, and podman push commands now support the --retry and --retry-delay options to configure retries for pushing and pulling images.
• The podman run and podman exec commands now support a new option, --preserve-fd, which allows passing a list of file descriptors into the container (as an alternative to --preserve-fds, which passes a specific number of file descriptors).
• Quadlet now supports templated units (#​17744).
• The podman kube play command can now create image-based volumes using the volume.podman.io/image annotation.
• Containers created with podman kube play can now include volumes from other containers (similar to the --volumes-from option) using a new annotation, io.podman.annotations.volumes-from (#​16819).
• Pods created with podman kube play can now set user namespace options through the the io.podman.annotations.userns annotation in the pod definition (#​20658).
• Macvlan and ipvlan networks can adjust the name of the network interface created inside containers via the new containers.conf field interface_name (#​21313).
• The --gpus option to podman create and podman run is now compatible with Nvidia GPUs (#​21156).
• The --mount option to podman create and podman run supports a new mount option, no-dereference, to mount a symlink (instead of its dereferenced target) into a container (#​20098).
• Podman now supports a new global option, --config, to point to a Docker configuration where we can source registry login credentials.
• The podman ps --format command now supports a new format specifier, .Label (#​20957).
• The uidmapping and gidmapping options to the podman run --userns=auto option can now map to host IDs by prefixing host IDs with the @ symbol.
• Quadlet now supports systemd-style drop-in directories.
• Quadlet now supports creating pods via new .pod unit files (#​17687).
• Quadlet now supports two new keys, Entrypoint and StopTimeout, in .container files (#​20585 and #​21134).
• Quadlet now supports specifying the Ulimit key multiple times in .container files to set more than one ulimit on a container.
• Quadlet now supports setting the Notify key to healthy in .container files, to only sdnotify that a container has started when its health check begins passing (#​18189).

Breaking Changes

• The backend for the podman machine commands has seen extensive rewrites. Configuration files have changed format and VMs from Podman 4.x and earlier are no longer usable. podman machine VMs must be recreated with Podman 5.
• The podman machine init command now pulls images as OCI artifacts, instead of using HTTP. As a result, a valid policy.json file is required on the host. Windows and Mac installers have been changed to install this file.
• QEMU is no longer a supported VM provider for podman machine on Mac. Instead, the native Apple hypervisor is supported.
• The ConfigPath and Image fields are no longer provided by the podman machine inspect command. Users can also no longer use {{ .ConfigPath }} or {{ .Image }} as arguments to podman machine inspect --format.
• The output of podman inspect for containers has seen a number of breaking changes to improve Docker compatibility, including changing Entrypoint from a string to an array of strings and StopSignal from an int to a string.
• The podman inspect command for containers now returns nil for healthchecks when inspecting containers without healthchecks.
• The podman pod inspect command now outputs a JSON array regardless of the number of pods inspected (previously, inspecting a single pod would omit the array).
• It is no longer possible to create new BoltDB databases; attempting to do so will result in an error. All new Podman installations will now use the SQLite database backend. Existing BoltDB databases remain usable.
• Support for CNI networking has been gated by a build tag and will not be enabled by default.
• Podman will now print warnings when used on cgroups v1 systems. Support for cgroups v1 is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. The PODMAN_CGROUPSV1_WARNING environment variable can be set to suppress warnings.
• Network statistics sent over the Docker API are now per-interface, and not aggregated, improving Docker compatibility.
• The default tool for rootless networking has been swapped from slirp4netns to pasta for improved performance. As a result, networks named pasta are no longer supported.
• The --image option replaces the now deprecated --image-path option for podman machine init.
• The output of podman events --format "{{json .}}" has been changed to improve Docker compatibility, including the time and timeNano fields (#​14993).
• The name of podman machine VMs and the username used within the VM are now validated and must match this regex: [a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*.
• Using multiple filters with the List Images REST API now combines the filters with AND instead of OR, improving Docker compatibility (#​18412).
• The parsing for a number of Podman CLI options which accept arrays has been changed to no longer accept string-delineated lists, and instead to require the option to be passed multiple times. These options are --annotation to podman manifest annotate and podman manifest add, the --configmap, --log-opt, and --annotation options to podman kube play, the --pubkeysfile option to podman image trust set, the --encryption-key and --decryption-key options to podman create, podman run, podman push and podman pull, the --env-file option to podman exec, the --bkio-weight-device, --device-read-bps, --device-write-bps --device-read-iops, --device-write-iops, --device, --label-file, --chrootdirs, --log-opt, and --env-file options to podman create and podman run, and the --hooks-dir and --module global options.

Changes

• The podman system reset command no longer waits for running containers to gracefully stop, and instead immediately sends SIGKILL (#​21874).
• The podman network inspect command now includes running containers using the network in its output (#​14126).
• The podman compose command is now supported on non-AMD64/ARM64 architectures.
• VMs created by podman machine will now pass HTTP proxy environment variables into the VM for all providers.
• The --no-trunc option to the podman kube play and podman kube generate commands has been deprecated. Podman now complies to the Kubernetes specification for annotation size, removing the need for this option.
• The DOCKER_HOST environment variable will be set by default for rootless users when podman-docker is installed.
• Connections from podman system connection and farms from podman farm are now written to a new configuration file called podman-connections.conf. As a result, Podman no longer writes to containers.conf. Existing connections from containers.conf will still be respected.
• Most podman farm subcommands (save for podman farm build) no longer need to connect to the machines in the farm to run.
• The podman create and podman run commands no longer require specifying an entrypoint on the command line when the container image does not define one. In this case, an empty command will be passed to the OCI runtime, and the resulting behavior is runtime-specific.
• The default SELinux label for content mounted from the host in podman machine VMs on Mac is now system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 so that it can be shared with all containers without issue.
• Newly-created VMs created by podman machine will now share a single SSH key key for access. As a result, podman machine rm --save-keys is deprecated as the key will persist by default.

Bugfixes

• Fixed a bug where container remove events did not have the correct exit code set (#​19124).

API

• A new API endpoint, /libpod/images/$name/resolve, has been added to resolve a (potential) short name to a list of fully-qualified image references Podman which could be used to pull the image.
• Fixed a bug where the List API for Images did not properly handle filters and would discard all but the last listed filter.
• Fixed a bug in the Docker Create API for Containers where entries from /etc/hosts were copied into create containers, resulting in incompatibility with network aliases.
• Fixed a bug in the Libpod and Docker Exec APIs for Containers which caused incorrect header values to be set when upgrading a connection for an interactive exec session.
• The API bindings have been refactored to reduce code size, leading to smaller binaries (#​17167).

Upcoming Deprecations

• We are beginning development on Podman 5.0, which will include a number of breaking changes and deprecations. We are still finalizing what will be done, but a preliminary list is below. Please note that none of these changes are present in Podman 4.8; this is a preview of upcoming changes.
• Podman 5.0 will deprecate the BoltDB database backend. Exact details on the transition to SQLite are still being decided - expect more news here soon.
• The containers.conf configuration file will be broken up into multiple separate files, ensuring that it will never be rewritten by Podman.
• Support for the CNI network backend and Cgroups V1 are being deprecated and gated by build tags. They will not be enabled in Podman builds by default.

Features

• The podman manifest inspect command now supports the --authfile option, for authentication purposes.
• The podman wait command now supports --condition={healthy,unhealthy}, allowing waits on successful health checks.
• The podman push command now supports a new option, --compression-level, which specifies the compression level to use (#​18939).
• The podman machine start command, when run with --log-level=debug, now creates a console window to display the virtual machine while booting.
• Podman now supports a new option, --imagestore, which allows images to be stored in a different directory than the graphroot.
• The --ip-range option to the podman network create command now accepts a new syntax, <startIP>-<endIP>, which allows more flexibility when limiting the ip range that Podman assigns.
• [Tech Preview] A new command, podmansh, has been added, which executes a user shell within a container when the user logs into the system. The container that the users get added to can be defined via a Podman Quadlet file. This feature is currently a Tech Preview which means it's ready for users to try out but changes can be expected in upcoming versions.
• The podman network create command supports a new --option, bclim, for the macvlan driver.
• The podman network create command now supports adding static routes using the --route option.
• The podman network create command supports a new --option, no_default_route for all drivers.
• The podman info command now prints network information about the binary path, package version, program version and DNS information (#​18443).
• The podman info command now displays the number of free locks available, helping to debug lock exhaustion scenarios.

• The --format={{.Restarts}} option to the podman pod ps command now shows the total number of container restarts in a pod.
• The podman machine provider can now be specified via the CONTAINERS_MACHINE_PROVIDER environment variable, as well as via the provider field in containers.conf (#​17116).
• A default list of pasta arguments can now be set in containers.conf via pasta_options.

• Podman now supports a new option, --out, that allows redirection or suppression of STDOUT (#​18120).

Changes

• When looking up an image by digest, the entire repository of the specified value is now considered. This aligns with Docker's behavior since v20.10.20. Previously, both the repository and the tag was ignored and Podman looked for an image with only a matching digest. Ignoring the name, repository, and tag of the specified value can lead to security issues and is considered harmful.
• The podman system service command now emits a warning when binding to a TCP socket. This is not a secure configuration and the Podman team recommends against using it.
• The podman top command no longer depends on ps(1) being present in the container image and now uses the one from the host (#​19001).
• The --filter id=xxx option will now treat xxx as a CID prefix, and not as a regular expression (#​18471).

• The slirp4netns binary for will now be searched for in paths specified by the helper_binaries_dir option in containers.conf (#​18239).
• Podman machine now updates /run/docker.sock within the guest to be consistent with its rootless/rootful setting (#​18480).
• The podman system df command now counts files which podman generates for use with specific containers as part of the disk space used by those containers, and which can be reclaimed by removing those containers. It also counts space used by files it associates with specific images and volumes as being used by those images and volumes.
• The podman build command now returns a clearer error message when the Containerfile cannot be found. (#​16354).
• Containers created with --pid=host will no longer print errors on podman stop (#​18460).
• The podman manifest push command no longer requires a destination to be specified. If a destination is not provided, the source is used as the destination (#​18360).
• The podman system reset command now warns the user that the graphroot and runroot directories will be deleted (#​18349), (#​18295).
• The package and package-install targets in Makefile have now been fixed and also renamed to rpm and rpm-install respectively for clarity (#​18817).

• Fixed a bug where the podman auto update command did not correctly use authentication files when contacting container registries.
• Fixed a bug where --label option to the podman volume ls command would return volumes that matched any of the filters, not all of them (#​19219).
