Enhancements and Resolved issues in this Agent version:

• Resolved issues in this agent version:

• Third party component upgrades - OpenSSL, cURL and zlib

  • DCS is not impacted by CVE-2023-38545 reported for cURL.
    We updated the components as some vulnerability scans where picking up the version that the DCS Agent was using, raising alarms on some security dashboards. Due to dependency, OpenSSL and zlib were also required to be upgraded.
